Hi Everyone.

Thanks for all your messages of support. Good news...Cha-Cha is fine! We took her to our vet for a second opinion and he basically said - that the condition she has (like hernia/lump) in her chest has been there from birth....that she has learned to manage it, and that doing surgery will just interefere...He said, long term it will shorten her life span, but all in all, she will be fine...Its just the extra stress on her body from the kittens that made her sick.....so just to try wean the kittens....and keep her as relaxed as possible.
I'm so happy she's ok.

The kittens are all doing really well - they are so so sweet. Its so hard to decide which one to keep!!! Any tips for choosing? I love them all!


Thanks again

Kim...I'm glad she is ok.....I would certainly make sure she gets spayed so she doesn't end up having any more litters of kittens.

Yeah we thought that too. But the Vet said he thought the surgery would dangerous for her...since her organs have grown funny etc - they thought that the surgery into her abdomen would be dangerous.
Looks like she will need to live inside always! LOL

Just be very careful that she does not ever get outside.
