Duchess in Labor!!!!

Maybe she is a tortie point? The tortie point mama that I have in my care has a couple of tan splotches on her back.

Really can't tell from the photo - it's not very clear and it's not in good light.

However colourpoint kittens have NO colour at birth and colour develops with age.  I strongly suspect the coat is stained, but time will show how the kitten turns out.  BTW is it a female or a male?  Male torties do exist but are pretty rare.

BTW pointed cats do develop colour on their bodies, as with the mother, but this takes time - it's not present at birth.  Also the paler colours take longer to become obvious than the darker ones.

Thank you both, and with momma being a chocolate Tortie point and blotting on her body both can be true, just have to wait and see I guess it is a Female as far as I can tell and it is a point. My daughter is keeping her so we shall watch her develop!

Maiden lost a few grams today

Next couple of pix are of Knight, her adopted family wanted updated pictures and this is how the shoot went down lol

This is where I gave up

The faint marks on her body wouldn't be visible at birth on a tortie-point anymore than the coloured ears, face and so on are.  I'm guessing this is the last of the kittens above, just coming in with blue on her ears, but she could well turn out to be seal. 

Does she still have those marks?  They tend to go as mum cleans the kitten.  You will have to wait to find out what colour she really is!

No the last kitten in the photos above is one of Snows, Thunder I think. No the marks on her body have not left yet. But with the blue coming in on all points now that is the only sure thing. I am excited to watch her change and will put up pictures of her today. Duke and Rain are both still white but I remember someone saying they might not get any color for another week. Or maybe those two are just white

Well its official, Maiden is Not stained. Her markings are getting darker, not fading. So I'm guessing she is a Tortie point like mum. And Duke who has been all white until today is coloring up to! Very light red tabby on tail and ears today! Yeay! And rain who is still all white at this time will have blue eyes for sure!!

Well I do hope no one is getting tired of pictures, because I have more I'll be posting tomorrow Good news, Duchess has gone out of heat...sort of. She isn't acting like it anyway and trying to help out with the kits again! Even Snows! So she and I are working on building up her milk supply again and the kittens are loving getting mummy baths again! Yeay Duchess! I must say I am loving this glorious spring!!

Keep the pics coming and I will do the same

Cuteness time lets see how many pictures I can get to load! This Maiden now at a week and a half

Maiden again, she is very playful and sweet, I'm SO glad we are keeping her!

Yep my baby again Some kittens take better pix then others.
