My friend kitty Rasputin had a litter of six kittens Wednesday night. I thought I'd share.

The two bigger ones are ones that Rasputin's sister Momma birthed 2 weeks ago but she's unable to nurse, so Rasputin has taken over for her.

Rasputin is a wonderful Mama.


All of the kittens are adorable.

We fostered a mom cat last year that had 5 of her own kittens and 3 orphans. She ate like a cow. Congratulations and good luck!!!

Raspy has her hands full. I do not envy her
She's a really small cat and to have 8 kittens fighting over her just looks absolutely overwhelming.

The kittens are being bottle feed as well just to make sure everyone gets enough milk.

They are indeed. The two bigger ones are starting to get to a playful stage and they like to wrestle eachother. Then they try to play with the smaller kittens they way that the play with eachother. Hopefully no one gets hurt!

I just watched your pile of kittens video.

They could not be cuter.
