Mitten's Kittens - Born last night

The light grey one is soo small... They all seem content though... only cry when Mama gets up  to eat herself. They were all born last night within an hour and a half altogether. Wasn't long at all. 

Cuteness overload!

Thank you! I adore every single one of them! They're precious! I thought 4 of them were black at birth til last night a few hours after birth and they were dry, I realized some are a dark grey instead. They look darker in the pictures, and the light grey one is like a silver! Real light grey.

awww wow congratulations!!!! they are adorable, the little grey one is soo tiny have you weighed them? x

Awww, the little silver one is my favourite! :heart3:

They are adorable!

I'd watch the silver one closely, he's much smaller than the others and probably not as strong. If you can weigh them on a baby scale, or kitchen scale at this point, I would do that, you will want to make sure that little one is gaining or decide if you have to supplement it's intake.

Cuteness overload, that's for sure.

Thank you everyone! The silver grey is my moms favorite, I am staying with her and my dad while I get my new house built, due to a house fire I had last fall, it's finally coming together. Yes, he is very tiny... It worries me, but there is another that right now they match weights, there arw two with white on the forehead, the one with the smaller white, that one matches silvers weight right now. They are all so tiny, smaller than should be I am assuming, they are not even in the 100 grams yet... But they've all gained weight since yesterday... But the silver one has only gained 6g since yesterday at 6pm, it was 1pm today I weighed again, the white one has gained about 8-9g, and the last one I got to weigh yesterday has gained 8g since 6pm. I wasn't able to weigh all 6 yesterday since mom was so worried shed try to come pick them up, but today did not mind me weighing them as long as I let her sniff my hand before and after the weighing of each, I am worried, though they seem content and move around like crazy trying to nudge and kick and scratch the others til I just pick one up and place it on a nipple they obviously missed... Right now they are all eating and "kneading" thing kittens do while eating. Should I be entirely worried they are all under 100g still at 2 days old?? The closest one is 94g then the next one is the white one at 90g. I still can't believe there were 6 of them, my mittens cat is so petite built, probably about 6 pounds. So any advice would be appreciated and again, thank you all so much!

Although they are the smallest kittens in this litter, they are not particularly small kittens compared to many other kittens.  So long as they put weight on all should be well.

Thank you! I was hoping someone would have something good to say I adore them all so much already. I will weigh them once more tonight, then tomorrow at the same times.

Here are some pictures from today.

Cute little ones, the little blue is quite sweet looking.

The white ones looks like he/she will be pointed. And the silver one looks like my Silka, who is pointed/tortie/patchy. It'll be cool to see how they grow up. So cute!

Thank you both I am anxious too see what they will look within these next couple of weeks! They are gaining more weight finally, so i am happy about that! Since 10pm last night, these are the gains when I weighed them today at 1pm: white one +10g. Silver +7g. Big spot on forehead +9g. Little spot on forehead +9g. Fuzzy +9g. And the one with no white +7g. There are now two over 100g, the white weighed in at 102g today and fuzzy at 108g today.

The tiny silver is almost to the 100g! Here are their weights today at 1pm. Last I weighed them before that, was at 10:20pm last night. I put the + sign to show their gains from last night.

White . 109.            +7                
Silver 96.                +8
Big Spot 101           +9

The kitten is blue, not silver. Some small weight gains but at least they are gains

What a precious looking group.

The little white one looks like it will turn out to be a flame-point.  If so, people will fight to get it.

Let me show you a better picture of Sheba, my avatar. This is what can happen when genetics go wild and produce a beautiful cat.



As you can see she is a torby/pointed climbing machine.

They are gorgeous and I can't wait to see what colours they end up. Do not panic yourself or stress them by weighing them two or three times a day - their weights are bound to vary a little over 24 hours. Weigh them once each day at the same time and unless they seem in distress, that will be enough to give you a good record.

Thank you guys So just the once a day weigh in is fine? Alright, I will do it just once starting today I'm so excited to see how their looks change and develop as well! they all to seem pretty happy... Either sleeping, eating, or climbing mom or one another lol. Catspaw66 - your cat is a pretty girl blue eyes? I'm not familiar with what a flame point is? Is that the tan orange color on white? :/ I'm not sure... Lol
