My Cat Had 5 Healthy Kittens On My Birthday

My cat Genie WAS in fact pregnant and a lot further along then I thought. We were at the vet earlier last week and they did an exam and xray and discovered 5 kittens. My birthday was Friday the 14th and I went out to dinner and came home to feed the cats and realized I hadn't seen Genie much of that day so I went down the basement and I heard a mewing sound behind the washing machine and I flipped out and starting moving the washing machine. She gave birth in quite a small area. NO help needed. I saw her birth the last kitten. There ARE 5! All red and white/buff and white babies. They are all gorgeous. Looks like 4 boys and 1 girl. I managed to get the babies and mama upstairs and more comfortable underneath my bed and have them secluded from daddy and my other kitty. Mama is a champ and such a loving mama. Kittens nursing wonderfully. How do I post pics?

Yay!
Congrats!

Congratulations! They sound beautiful. I have a soft spot for reds... and always wanted a cream... cant wait to see pics!

Congrats!!! Cant wait to see pics!!

Ok trying to post some pics. Hoping this works?

Oh my heavens!!! Aren't they just precious!!! Red tabby and white/ buff tabby and white!!!

Oh wow - been a long time since I've seen a red and white or cream and white litter.

Those are really cool - looking forward to more individual pictures of the red-head gang


If I didn't have another Oci on order.................I'd be taking a red/white boy

What precious little babies!!!!

My goodness are they ever adorable!!! And what a lovely momma cat!

Behind the washing machine though... was it running maybe, so it was nice and cozy back there when she started? ...what an odd decision. Cats.
