Who wants to wait whilst my kittens are born!

[Kittenwatch]

My girl is having her kittens! First one is here squeaking and healthy!

Second is imminent.

I think she’ll have 4 🤞🏽🤞🏽

Sorry, CLIMB WALLS? This is figurative speech, right??

@grumpygrape I could definitely pick up a crate…

Awww, they all look so content

Scrump sneaking an extra feed sans siblings - the little tubby greedus 🥰

Oh my goodness

Scrump is thriving. I’m sure the others are too but Scrump may have a head start

You know how bikes climb walls at a velodrome? They sort of hurtle around chasing each other doing kitten parkour, bouncing off the walls as they go.

And yes, I agree with the crate suggestion. I’d never heard of one back then but definitely would do now!

😻😻😻😻When we had COVID my little cat got pregnant and had 4 kittens. We still have 2. 1 is black and white long hair like one of your kittens OP. I loved being a kitten momma.

🤣🤣🤣

It depends what you have on the walls. My nan had some embossed type wallpaper and her rather hefty adult cat could scale the walls with ease. We had some old woodchip paper which is essentially a kitten rock climbing wall. Numerous holds enabling not just vertical climbing but horizontal and diagonal moves at great speed.😸

Forgot to say. I hope you're not thinking of putting up a Christmas tree 🎄

OP, hope all well.
Would love to see new photo of mum + babies.
I love a monochrome cat!

Good morning all! We have little walkers!! All very healthy and VERY LOUD. They are three weeks old today and that means we can start weaning but I’m just not sure they’re ready! They’re so little still!

I’m not sure there’s anything more perfect than little kittens and yours are no exception - they are beautiful.

So beautiful! 😻

That first photo is like mum and baby wearing matching outfits!

May I introduce my mini me?

Ridiculously beautiful cat and kittens

Wonderful photos, I think I recognise Scrump in the second photo

@Davros that is indeed Scrump who we’ve accepted we’re also keeping.

DH keeps calling it ‘my kitten’ and I think the idea of giving her up is ridiculous now he’s bonded with her.

I’ve just cleaned out their nest and I’m getting together all the stuff we need for the next stage (small litter trays and weaning food etc.) and I’ll get a crate too plus a little kitten tree so they have more places to hide and play.

The vet will love me with three cats to spay in the new year plus annual visits for four cats!

Also need to sort insurance which I’ll do this weekend.

I really appreciate all the love for our mama cat too - she is beautiful and has done an amazing job looking after her babies.

I was just coming to say I hope you tell mother cat how clever and beautiful she is 🥰
I think I said, we borrowed a dog crate to contain our girl after she was spayed because she's very bouncy and didn't know why she couldn't bounce and fight with her cousin as usual .... So a crate will serve you well when you get the girls done.
Christmas is going to be very busy in your house!

Such gorgeous kitties! It’s a lovely age too, when they’re starting to explore their world. ❤️

Oh I love mum’s protective paw on her baby in the last photo.

I really recommend a fold up dog crate if you need to take multiple cats to the vet at once. So much easier than shuttling back and forth with individual carriers and comforting for them to travel together if they are bonded. (You may already have this, I only got one last year after years of being a multi cat household)

They are gorgeous 😻
Looking so healthy....let the mischief begin!
Thanks for posting update photo.

Wonderful 🥰

It is astonishing how quickly they grow and flourish, with mine it seemed like one minute they were full time at the milk bar, the next I was going through solid kitten food and biscuits like no tomorrow!

They are so adorable, Good luck now they are moving, I sadly lost quite a lot of stuff when I had only two 8 week olds.
