dd just saw the PC screen and shouted 'Hamsters!'

fgs she's six and has had 14 newborn kittens in the house to view first hand so should be able to tell the differance at this stage! [bugrin]

dp 'awwwwwed' when I showed him the most recent pics.

Lurker here! Hope you have a lovely Easter, I think that you are doing such a great job.

TheOriginalFAB · 24/04/2011 13:29

I love this thread.

I love how everyone is routing for the kittens and looking for updates.

I love how we are not to proud to say we have cried over a kitten we never really knew.

I love mumsnet.

Fab That is such a great post, you've summed up exactly what I feel - couldn't agree more with you.

I said to DH last night if wishing for wellbeing could make a difference, then these kitties would make it. I feel so touched that so many of you care so much, it's just wonderful to share it all with you. They are the internets most-loved kitties I think [busmile]

Gingers eyes have just started to open - squeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!! - just a teeny crack but soon I think he'll be gazing around with his baby blues. His sister is a bit behind still...she's currently asleep on my neck whilst I type with one hand.

I adore these kittens, I really do!

......still fast asleep on my neck! Slipped a bit so half on my chest now, did a 360degree twirl, purred, and fell asleep again.

They are looking so fluffy and gorgeous, glad they are both still gaining weight, thanks for the photo update!

Northernlurker · 24/04/2011 16:04

Oooh lovely new pictures - you can see how much they've grown. Hope they continue to thrive.

TidyDancer · 24/04/2011 19:13

Right, been lurking for a while, have to de-lurk now, because of all the cuteness. So sorry about Rosie :(. You are bloody fantastic though Pinot, what a lovely thread! [busmile]

ChocolateEggyrolls · 24/04/2011 19:21

They are simply gorgeous - Ginger is very cool and meow looks yummy too!!!!

5inthebed · 24/04/2011 20:59

Lovely new photos, they have got soooo big over a week.

Glad they are both doing well and yey for Ginger's eyes opening. They will be wandering aroun before you know it!

TapselteerieO · 24/04/2011 21:05

Even my dh has asked about them, a first in all the years I have been on mn!
Fingers crossed they keep getting stronger and bigger Pinot.

PregolaLola · 24/04/2011 22:31

cant believe i just spent an hour reading a thread, how AMAZING are you pinot ?, just stroked my old ex stray STIFFLER, and he's now doing hes best kitten impression on the rug.

sorry to hear of rosie, honestly read this like a book, so emotionally attached now.
Wonderful story

Pinot · 25/04/2011 09:35

Well lovely Mners, I now have a ginger and white fluffball with deep blue eyes gazing at me! squeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Scrumptious little darling opened them properly at his 5am feed this morning and I was whispering to him what a clever boy he was and how gorgeous his eyes are when DH suddenly sits up "His eyes are open? Lemme seeeeeeee" Bless my DH, that's why I love him so much!!!! He may pretend to be the sensible one but really he's just as much as a wally as me :) :)

Meow's eyes are a bit teary looking so I think she'll soon be open too. Very exciting!

I'll weight them later and report back :)
