New kittens are almost here!!!

At the request of several people, we let Bella Roma have a litter of kittens before we fixed her. She is the last throws of labor (poor thing). She produces very small female cats. All of her female kittens have been less than 6 pounds when they are grown. The males are 8 to 9 pounds. Here in Germany it is tough to obtain a non-pedigree kitten unless it is feral. Thus a non-pedigree cat in Germany is a much desired animal. The Germans do an excellent job of spaying and neutering. I will try to leave photos in a few days. The father is jet black and the mom is an Italian shorthair tortie. Should make for some pretty kittens.

Awww bless her! Can't wait to see the little ones

Is Rosie a tortie?

She is!, with an attitude to go with it sometimes

LOL! She looks like it in her pictures sometimes!

What is about Torites and attitude? Bella is the same "#%#$%#$%#" way. =)

Gotta love her though!!

Congrats on the kittens! YAY! How old is she?

A solid two years old (as near as we can tell). She was about four months old, beaten, burned, dehydrated and pregnant when we found her in Italy. The vet guessed no more than for months as she still had baby teeth. Hard to believe that a cat no one wanted is now producing kittens that people are requesting. Life is so crazy.

We found out a boyfriend beat up his girlfriends cat in some sort of show of brut force. She had a friend sneak it onto the base in the hopes someone would rescue it. I thought she was dead when we found her. It was nothing that a hundred euros of vet bills wouldnâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]t kill.
