WOW thank you so much... It does mean alot... Makes me feel like I am doing ok with the situation...

Wow, those guys look like mine did at about 5 - 7 days! They're huge. My daughter, then 12, started holding the babies for short periods of time at about 5 days. She and her friends helped a lot by playing with the kitties a lot, especially after they were 2 - 3 weeks old. All the handling made them very loving, purry kitties. (Of course the mom has to be ok with all that, but after a couple weeks, she likes having a babysitter I think.)

Skittles lets me pick them up now and bring them to her... She actually wants me too... SHe will nudge my hand like hay grandma your child is hungry attach her please... I notice all the nipples do get used... Of course 1 is left out each feeding.... They eat so darn well... and I can hear it... I do notice she does get them to potty... It is so cute... My kids are in love so am I... My plans are after I fix and spay ios sto pick the ones out I plan to keep... It is hard not to keep them all but I know my family is taking them I am happy with that

Their coat patterns are similar to my four (now almost 2.5 weeks old).

I'm glad they're doing well--good luck!

Awww... Skittles is such a good mommy! Well, she obviously has a good example in you, Jenny! I'm so glad to see that they're all doing well.

MY GOSH! Such cuteness happening in your home! Gosh, I wish I had room for more kitties...I'd love to have a Pregnant foster cat. It's like such a little miracle! I love this thread.

If I lived anywhere near you, I'd for sure be comming over and helping you out, and loving all those little dears too.


Cute! Love it! Great job girl.

I know this is off topic but if that is your cat in the signature it is so cute

They are adorable, and nice big fat healthy kittens

Have you looked to see how many boys and how many girls? (Sorry if you already posted this)

Skittles sounds like an extrodinary cat! You are so lucky to have her and her you!
