The first one was breech, and the sac burst during delivery is what probably happened.
yep, should have mentions you could see feet AND tail lol xD

Breech births are not easy. And once the sac bursts they need to be born quickly for breathing purposes. It's all good now though!

poor girl, typical for the first one which is the hardest to be the breech one!

no wonder she was so exhausted by the end of it, kinda feel honoured she chose to be so close to be for all of it <3

Just make sure she has plenty of food at all times, and that the house is warm enough!

morning!

sorry I ended up knocking out last night

got a couple cute pictures, no idea how I'm going to tell the 2 black ones apart so here is Suky or Panther, wish I knew which cos Suky was first born and Panther was the one who came out and first thing she did was hiss ha


and here is andy the only one with grey in the litter :)


i have no idea if that might be a little poop next to her  nose ruining the photo lol

Cuties! [emoji]128149[/emoji]

Eventually you'll notice a tiny something that's different with the black ones, and be able to tell them apart. In the meantime, you can put a dot of nail polish on the tail tip of one of them for now.

yeah the annoying thing is i see personaility differences in the b&w one and grey&w they are a lot more lively and they seem to want to bully their way to the nipple where the black ones are a lot more laid back about it, although i did see the cutest little fist fight between a black one and the grey one over a nipple earlier xD

Here is a link to a study regarding temperament and cat color.  Black cats are more laid back.

http://www.sacbee.com/entertainment/living/pets/article51617920.html
that explains why I've always had a love for black cats then, I'm tempted to keep one of the black ones as they remind me of my very much loved childhood cat <3 

I told my sister and she saw that happening a mile away, she said that that old cat was the same and used to climb into her top bunk at night and give birth then not leave her bed for 6 weeks haha

my sister has also informed me that she wants the grey and white kitten and his name is now patch. 

at least thats 2 already in forever homes and also still in the family <3
