Question? Pics!

My babies are 2 weeks old..They will be 3 weeks on Friday...They are already drinking from Moms water dish and sniffing the dry food that I have down 24/7 and when I bring wet in to feed her they just sniff and they come over and see what it is. Are they suppose to be doing that this early? They still haven't mastered walking they are still a little wobbly! Is it ok for them to drink water this early and should I put something down for them like food with KMR in it? I give Moe KMR in her wet food and the babies will lick KMR off my finger. I just am in shock that they are drinking from a dish this early. Any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated!







Also if anyone can tell me what technical name for the colors of babies are I would greatly appreciate it!

Awww! They absolutely gorgeous as is Moe!!! I don't know what the technical colors are but they're all tabbies. I'm sure you already knew that though.

Our kittens are 4 weeks are have sniffed moms water too but show no interest in drinking it or in her food yet so I"m no help. Just wanted to comment on how cute the babies are!

i think they are supposed to start weening at 3-4 weeks. i dont know about 2 weeks but my kittens are 4 weeks and they drink out of Kitty's water bowel and show no intrest in food. not much of a help but i tries. lol. good luck!

There are so cute... I keep getting you 2 moms mixed up your names are like mine lOl

They are gorgeous! I love them!

i know that the 2 in the middle are tabbies but the black one and the other grey one on the end that looks kinda blue i didn't think were tabbies they are not stripped? the 2 in the middle are girls and the black one and the other grey/blue one are boys.

1 Brown mackerel tabby, 1 silver mackerel tabby ( The 'tiger striped')
1 Brown classic tabby and 1 silver classic tabby (the marble or swirled stripes)

Thanks..What exactally is a Tabby? I have never understood that? How do you get a tabby? Is it just a domestic cat? I don't know what the daddy was but Moe is an exotic persian/bengal mix. All the babies have spotted bellies.

Tabby just refers to the coat pattern.

I just wanted to tell you that those kittens are precious!

Thank you all for your lovely compliments! Those are my spoiled little babies! Everytime I go into the closet I say "Hi pretty babies" and they come running to me and climb all over me! I love it. It is good that they are used to me and are comfortable with me. The Brown mackerel tabby(tiger stripped) is the runt and the loudest. She LOVES my 2yr old. Everytime she goes in there she goes directly to her and sits in her lap! They are precious and I am so glad that I don't have to get rid of them.

they are all so cute! are you going to be keeping them all?

yes i am keeping all of them. i am taking mom and babies to be spay/neutered at the same time and get the babies shots. that was my mothers day present. my significant other asked me what i wanted for mothers day and i said to be able to keep all the babies because we were only going to keep 1 and he finally gave in and said yes!

my cat has got only around 1cm of gunt hanging out, i take this as she is going to start soon.... but she keeps going to clean it but really is not getting close at all... she is huge....shall i just leave it or should i clean it for her.......she was 57days exactly monday just past...........so now is 61days.... kinda worried about the size of her..... she was in a litter of 7..... im sure it must be around the same amount..... everynow and then... gut feeling is like worried about her getting them all out....size and feeling... could be around8
