Well, Bella finally had her babies last night! Three of them... One all white, one looking like Mama, and one mostly tiger striped but with white chest and neck. They are big babies! Size wise... LOL. Aren't newborns usually ranging from 90-110g? WELL Here are these kittens weights... White - 139g. Tiger- 133g. And white and tiger(like mama) 137g. I couldn't get a face picture of the White cause he or she kept hiding. Try to get more soon. In the 3rd picture, you see a little mess in the left corner, this is mama's food she brought in and ate so she was by the babies... hehe. I just cleaned their bedding for the day. So don't worry, they're not still laying in ick :)

Don't they look like atleast a week old?! I was amazed how big they were and how she never moaned or hollered while giving birth... Only way I knew was hearing her lick, and I'd look and there she was tearing the sac... She is loving being a mama!

Yes they're very big! Tiva didn't make any noise at all during her labor either- but her babies were a lot smaller. The biggest was 110.7g and the smallest was 87.8g. And not yet- but i'm uploading them now and putting them in a thread :)

I managed to get the white one to take pictures tonight... There is something on it's forehead.. I am assuming Mama was cleaning and got some of her food on he or she, lol.

Thank you! :D they are little darlings. Haha... I am going to have a hard time giving them up I'm sure! I haven't decided whether or not I will keep one... There are nine total kittens here now ya know! These big ones are only a few days old, the other 6 are a week old today. It's going to be a crazy house! But I'm ready! I think... :lol3:

Thank you!!! :) They are still gaining... Biig babies... Lol.
White - 180g. Gained 20 g since yesterday's weigh in
Lil Mamas Twin - 173g. Gained 21
Mostly tiger - 182g. And I don't know how much gained, forgot to write down yesterday.

What do you guys think about the white one? Think it'll be plain white, or colored? The other Mama Mittens has a white one also and people have thought he or she will be "pointed" and slowly her ears have been getting some grey, so is it's tail. Her babies are 8 days old today. Bellas are 3 days old today, that's why I said biig babies! Lol.

It may just be shadows, but it almost looks like stripes on the tail and some grey behind the ears.  It doesn't matter, they are all three little cuties.  I remember when my Psy was born, she looked just like both the white ones.  She turned out to be a light lynx point.

Weights today

Whitey - 198g.
Tiger - 195g.
Lil' Mama's Twin - 194g.

I'll have to look up a light lynx point. I looked at Bellas whitey closely today, and I don't notice any stripes on it's tail... Yet. But back of the ears are turning grey I'd say. Do you have pictures of your Psy kitty?

Check on the Crossing the Bridge forum  for Psy. I just meant that her stripes were light not really dark.

I guess it was just the shadows or my monitor, but I could have sworn I was seeing stripes on the little one.

I would read a 'light Lynx point' as a blue tabby point.  However seal-points can look blue to start with.  And it seems like the pointed pattern is much more common in the domestica cat population in at least some parts of the US than it is in the UK.
