We’re keeping a close eye on this pretty little kitty.
But perhaps I should be careful with the word “little” in this case, because while all the rest of the time this gal is absolutely petite and whispy–right now…
…she’s expecting about 20 kittens–from the looks of it. She is–I would say–a tad more substantial. Yikes.
Any second now…
I’ll let you know when the kitty stork arrives.
I’d tell Lyla to get a room…but it looks like she already did–
and I should mind my own business.
Sheesh.
We moved the newcomers to a cozy box in the bathroom–because no one should have to start life under a shoe rack. You know I’m right.
There are in fact, exactly 3 kitties. This one is a sweet little tiger stripe.
This little one is grey with very muted stripes–barely there.
And lastly, this one is the twin to the grey baby above only with a darker diamond on it’s nose.
I have no earthly idea if they are girls or boys because it’s hard to know with cats until they are a bit older. Maybe someone, SOMEwhere can tell, but it ain’t me.
So, we will live with the mystery.
Ohhhh…look! I picked up this sweet baby and cuddled them while I taught my online class and the next thing I know—ZZZZzzzzzzz……
They are the cutest little things. We have two like this one…
And two of the full tigers. But for now…
I have no idea if they are girls or boys. It’s actually very hard to tell with kittens until they’re about 8 weeks old.
In the meantime…we’ll just keep calling them white face, half white and the stripey twins.
They don’t seem to care one bit.
Obviously, I’m still working on the photo editing skills–but I’m new here. Patience Portifoy.
In the meantime–this is Little Lyla’s favorite place to hang out–and she literally does hang there (note the claws). It’s an interesting thing if you actually want to sit down in this chair. Pretty-much all she does is move her back leg a smidge. On the upside, it’s kinda like having a chair with a built in shoulder wrap–you know, for those cold winter nights.
Lyla is such a considerate kitty.
Heh, heh.
