Thank you. Glad she found us just wish I knew when the time was going to be for her to have these kitties. I am leaving for my sons wedding in Florida In a couple weeks and have to make sure they are cared for.

She looks very close, so you will need someone to come in and feed and check on the kittens while you're gone.

I have been with Lilly most of today because she has been acting unusual, laying around a lot and I noticed some wet spots on her bed. She is now producing milk. Does this mean we are within a few days?

Thanks. We are getting excited over her just to see them! My daughter is not able to attend the wedding due to college so she has decided to stay with momma and the kitties while we are away and care for them. I will post pics as soon as she decides it's time.

I'm glad that your daughter will be able to stay with mama kitty and the kittens while you attend the wedding.

Where in Florida are you headed?

Sorry I just seen your post. He is getting married in Treasure Island so we are making a vacation out of it. There are about 25 of us going so I can't wait and I love his fiancé to pieces. BTW Lilly has been laying around with me since I got off work. She has some we're spots on her sheet she lays on and has barely touched her food. Hoping tonight is the night but no panting or anything. She seems very content laying here but her belly is solid as can be.

Well Miss Lilly sure is taking her time. Her milk is definitely in and she is laying around and lifts her leg and moves her and there. I thought for sure we would have kittens by now! I guess I am just the impatient one[emoji]128575[/emoji][emoji]128571[/emoji]

I don't see discharge. I noticed some very small wet spots on her bed but she is licking a lot. She will be laying there and like kick her foot out. But if I get up she will too. I hate to move but if I need to let the dogs out or do anything I have to.

It sounds like she may be having contractions. Do you see her sides ripple at all?

I think they are I just couldn't tell if it was the kitties or the rippling. She rolled over on her back at one point and you can tell there is a kitty way down there.

Ok, she's laboring. She should have kittens within the next 24 hours.

Thank you just crossing my fingers this goes easy for her. I'm going to go be with her as long as she wants me there.

She is now in my daughters room on a big dog bed that she loves. I was in there and laid down and she laid right beside me just purring away but she is jerking every now and then and moving around like uncomfortable. Her belly is just moving like crazy. Still no discharge. Is that normal? She doesn't want me to move. She has her little paw wrapped around my finger. [emoji]128571[/emoji]
