new babies

Guess what everybody! Gracie had her babies this morning from 4-6. i was so prepared! My mom didn't know how to help. The problem was... Gracie only took the umbilical cord off the first baby and not the other 3 so i had to do it. Now they are sleeping peacefully except for a little black one that can't seem to find the nipple. um so i am having my dad go and get kitten milk and bottle just in case it wont eat. i definitely will make sure it eats today and tomorrow so it will get those important nutrients that it can only get from Gracie. i am so happy. it has been a tiring morning!

Glad the delivery went successfully. Just as a reminder...do not allow mom cat to have a chance to get outdoors until she is spayed.
