They love to watch me weight them and change the bedding because Skittles seems to think I am safe with her babies... I never let the boys touch just watch as I work.. They are so happy.. They are helping me keep track of them... There is 2 gray and today I noticed the red on the face of #7 looks calico....

My husband has promised me to help me post pics of Patches and her babies tommorow..I'm no good at that but I will post a pic of Patches, and a pic of our baby who looks like Skittles, as well as the rest of the gang! The one who looks like Skittles is Whit with dark grey spots..she has mor grey on her face than patches but...similar! Of course she's named already! Can you guess?

HMMMM Skittles


You will have to show me... WHen I went to weigh them today I am really starting to see there colors and there is red in them.. I have like 2 that have got my heart because of the coloring... #1 is black and white...I thought they all looked alike till she cleaned them all up... nI do have a gray fuzz ball so am thinking I was correct the gray cat is the dad of them all... He was the only gray cat otheres where orange white all where white and red or white and tan or white gray... Only gray was her frind that she was on the lawn with and still hangs under my house..

I just took a few... It is so hard to tell of them apart because they are so much alike..... It is the 2 there I thought had the same placenta they came so fast.. I never saw it....

Congrats on Skittles kittens!
...How many did she end up having? I was looking through the other post, and I think that there were 12 kittens, but some died? I'm sorry about the ones that died, but I'm happy that Skittles is ok, and that most(?) of the kittens were ok too

Congratulations Skittles and Skittles' mom! I can't believe Skittles had such a large litter. 13? That's the largest cat litter I've ever heard of! I think the fact that 7 survived is testament to what a healthy cat Skittles is and what good care she is receiving from her mom!

I am actually wondering if 13 was born when 12 was... Remember I said she was having contractions still but her butt was to the wall it was the wall I found her at under the blankets... I think she did have it then..Because Skittles was so clean this morning...All the kittens where clean and nursing so I did not want to bother morning the bedding till this morning.. It was so dark in the closet I actually think I missed the little one... It was the smallest out of all of them... I feel bad but I know I did what I could... I am sure 13 was born yesturday... I had to go potty and I thought she was done... My mom said there was 8 I only saw 7 but I was so tired after it all
I can not recall but the more I think about it I am sure... o Also I did give her a clean white towel last night to lay on to monitor blood and there was nothing on it at all nothing.... I can not change it but I can hope for the others to have a healthy start and life...
