I don't think I would have been thinking to rush for the camera either.
From now on, I will have to have the camera right there, for the possibility of a rare time that we could have twins!!

My grandparents had cats (white with tabby patches) that were twins when I was growing up. Their markings were so identical it was not funny. The sad thing was during their first year of life they were seperated for several months. Scruffy went to a really good home were she was well loved. Jenny was terribly abused and never trusted many humans again. (However, I earned her trust!) The stress of being abused aged Jenny really bad. Scruffy out lived her twin by 3 years. -kd

They looked alot like the cat in your signature. Jenny would only sleep in the lap of 3 people. My grandmother was her favorite, then me and her last choice was my grandfather. It took me 3 months (of hard work) to earn her trust. -kd

Twins were discussed on a health list today
Please, Which health list are you refering to?
It is called the Fanciers Health List, it has a lot of rescue organizations, breeders, and either one of 2 vets that discuss different health topics. It isn't meant to replace your own vets advice, but to help with your vet to make better decisions. Dr. Susan Little, a Canadian Feline Health Specialist is on the list, she is someone whos advice I value.
Here is a link to the FAN-H List: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/fanciershealth/

I just took the cat age test, Honey my spayed female is 28.2 yours by their test, which is 9.1 years younger then cats her age.(She is six yrs old) I thought that was pretty good, one of the only things that cost age was second hand smoke (and teeth, I don't brush my cats teeth.)

My cat Loonie had Cream Shaded Cameo twins about three years ago. They shared the same placenta. Sadly one had to be put to sleep at birth since it had a hare lip.
