Did you label those correctly? Do you really have male calicos?

Thank you so much for the warm welcome!
I love that everyone has pics of their beautiful babies.

And unbelieveably yes, those are labelled correctly.... My Katey had two male calico kittens.

Pretty kitties you have there!!! Welcome to TCS

I can't believe you have two male calicos!! I mean one is rare but the odds of two is just huge...wow. Are you positive they are male ? I am saying this because a calico male must first have a genetic 'defect' (although it doesn't really cause any sickness or anything like that, just an anomaly) of having an extra X chromosome. So instead of XY like all males, it's XXY. The way this happens is during implantation of the embryo an extra X chromosome is given..And for this to happen to two embryos of the same litter is a huuge coincindence!! It's pretty much the odds of it happening to one squared ...Anything is possible though I'm not saying I don't believe you lol

Here's my Nono





He ended up getting called Nono because I'm constantly having to say No... no... no... no!! to him since he was about 6 weeks old. LOL. He's my crazy baby and constantly swings on shower curtains and climbs up the wooden blinds and up and down the sofa and traipses along the stair railings. He gives me a heart attack several times a day with his antics.

Nono is adorable.

Welcome to TCS!
I think you have found the perfect place to share your love of cats, especially your kitties! But don't get ahead of yourself
, hate to tell ya, but we are enjoying you and your kitty pics just as much if not more
!
That little adorable character, Nono, with the cutest name as well, is precious! Then on top of his cuteness, you have the other kittens that are mirror breaking beauties! And is this true, the two OB&W calicos are males??!! This is so rare, and to have two brothers!

They are both definitely male. The little sweetheart with the white on his face has gone to his new family. I am no fool.. I gave him to friends who I babysit for, so I get to see him
Their little 3 yr old named him "booties", like baby booties. Cute
