Approximate delivery day for this mama kitty?

[Sarthur2]

That's a dilemma if I ever heard one!

One solution might be to occasionally sleep in there with her. Is that possible? Even with Polka not in your room right now, Chanel coming in will leave her scent. Polka may not like that - though I thought she had been accepting of Chanel. And personally, I've always had multiple cats in bed with me.

It's a head-scratcher for sure!

I wish I could sleep in Chanel's room. I have to monitor my daughter at night though so I have to be in the room with her. Polka accepts Chanel unless they look at each other eye to eye and then the hissing starts and Chanel cowers away. Polka doesn't like any animal on my bed though. She comes on and kicks everyone off the bed. Lol.

Poor Chanel and her little face. She's the first cat I've ever heard of having only one expression. We'll see what happens during labor.

I wonder if it has anything to do with neurological things, or perhaps just that she has always had to be so alert - though you would expect she would react more with submissive looks and things with having come from such a multi cat environment.   Such a pretty cat, I hope for her that once she has these kittens she is able to settle and finds herself a loving furever home where she can be someones constant companion - how many people want snuggly attention seekers like her!!!

 

[sweetlynn86]

She baffles me. Her body language is entirely submissive, to the point of rolling over and barring her stomach, but her expression is alway deer in the headlights. She's so good with people though. She even mauls my 3 year old and shoves her face up his nose to get his attention.

Funny picture of the day. Mona is such a silly kitten.

 

[handsome kitty]

She looks like she's laughing.

 

[sweetlynn86]

Lol. She sits like that and swishes her tail and chases it back and forth, and back and forth. And back and forth and back. And forth. [emoji]128514[/emoji][emoji]128514[/emoji][emoji]128514[/emoji][emoji]128514[/emoji]

I noticed that. Does she try to express herself in other ways? Can she read YOUR expressions?

I just get over how positively diminutive she is. And gorgeous, despite it all.

I do. I do.

 

[sweetlynn86]

misterwhiskers she can read my expressions. It may sound odd but I usually mimic my cats facial expressions and I find that if I make certain facial expressions at them, I can affect their body language and mood. When I do it to Chanel, it also affects her body language and mood. If I squint and look at her just below her eyes and do a slow blink, she relaxes a lot. If I make my eyes suddenly big, she tenses up quickly. She does use body language but she's still kind of a mystery. She's hard to read. Her meows get me nowhere so far too. With my other cats, I know each and every meow so well that my mom will hear one of them and she'll be like, who's meowing and I can say oh, it's nutty looking for polka or its polka wanting fresh water. I get picked on for "speaking cat" but I don't speak Chanel. No yet at least. I guess it doesn't help that Chanel doesn't really meow. She chirps like a bird and I haven't learned to differentiate her tones.

Here is the difference 12 days makes. I knew she was looking so much better but seeing her first day picture next to current pictures is shocking.

She was incredibly malnourished - wow, what a difference! She looks really good now!

 

[sweetlynn86]

I didn't realize how drastically she had changed so quickly.

 

[handsome kitty]

What a difference.  did you ever contact anyone regarding the situation?

 

[misterwhiskers]

Wow. You can really notice the weight gain in her face and hips, esp. Chanel really was skin and bones. No wonder even her kittens are getting fatter!
