Tell me how creepy it is that both of our cats had kittens on the same day - St Patrick's Day at that - at practically the same time.
Not to mention they both had 5 kittens, 4 reds and one tabby.
I think I hear Twilight Zone music.
Good thing your tabby was born 4th and mine 5th or I might really be freaking out - lol
Hope you get a good night's sleep now - I'm heading up now!

The litters are almost identical. Sheesh! Where do you live? That's one active tom!
Our births went like this:
1- 6:30 - red
2 and 3 by 7:15, both red
4- 8:15 black tabby
5- 10:10 she struggled with him, had one foot and a tail out for several minutes, and she was exhausted! I ended up helping tug while she pushed, after she got out both legs. She's such a good mama, she worked him big, licking hard for several minutes, since he was unresponsive at first. He's red and I have an affinity for him since I midwifed him! I thought she had another one in there, since she continued to contract for another couple of hours. Then, at 1 am, she pushed out the placenta for #5. WHEW! I didn't see it when he was born, but thought she could have eaten it, as she did the others. When she finally did push it out, she just left it there, too tire to get it. I threw it away, and when I came back, she looked at me like, "where's my baby?" She let us all (3 kids and company for an hour or so) watch the whole thing. She's getting up to eat and drink, and she lets us pick them up and cuddle them. She's a fabulous mama. Here's their pic this morning:
wow! that's a really beautiful picture. congrats!
They are so beautiful!
Gorgeous picture! And they DO look like Twix's kittens!
Does it make it any creepier now that I know your from Buffulo??? We are less than 2 hours away in Erie!
I'm anxious to sex these kittens. If any of the reds are girls, or if this tabby is a boy, then I know the tom was a red cat. On the otherhand, though, if the tabby is a girl or all the reds are boys than the tom could've been any ole tabby or black cat (or gray even). Not that it really matters - it's just that I'm a genetics freak. LOL
Twix was tuckered out after kitty #5 too. She cleaned off his sac then sacked out herself! Despite still being tethered to his mothers rearend, he still found his way to nurse. At one point he went over top a red kitten and the cord had the red trapped underneath
After about an hour I gently tugged on the cord and helped her expel the placenta, she didnt even pay any attention to it, I ended up having to sever it and dispose of it too.
I dont think she got up to eat until the middle of the night sometime. Poor girl.
Of course I got more pics too and a video
