Where's the cuteness warning? My babies are as big as their mother now. Hard to believe they were ever that little.

Thanks for sharing!


How old are they when you can determine the gender?

Awwwww!!!
I love it when their eyes open. I don't know about you, but whenever that happens with my kittens, it always stars at the center, then the lid peels open...they look so funny!

Good luck!
Oh ya, as for sexes, the oranges are probably males, and the torti is probably a female, but you can't be certain.

Oh my gosh...they're so cute! They look so different from newborn to 1 week. You can really tell the colors now. Thank you for answering my question about the lump that was left in Coral. It was a moving lump, so I figured it was a kitten, but I wasn't sure.

Congrats on such a nice looking bunch of softies!!! I am looking forward to having another litter in the house, but my Bonnie isn't pregnant yet. I love kittens so I am very envious of you right now!!! They are precious!

This spring we didn't any kittens...I'm feeling soooo envious of you guys. My parents altered our girl Tiara, after she had 2 litters. Raising those kittens was so fun and my parents are now considering allowing me and my sisters to get some Persian cats to breed. I'm really excited!

I doubt any reputable breeder would just let you have purebred Persians to just "breed". Most reputable breeders spend a great deal of time mentoring future breeders, recommend they start by showing neutered cats, teaching them genetics and other very important information before allowing just anyone to breed their cats.

If you really want to have kittens to raise, why don't you check with a local shelter? Many of them will place a pregnant cat in a foster home until her kittens are old enough to adopt out.

Oh, you should! I foster all the time, and it's such a good thing so the kittens can get socialised and adopted!Good luck to flower and the kittens!
