Babies are here!!! Born
September 24, 2006
Here's fatso, "Mama's Boot Scootin' Boogie".
"Scotch", the daddy, is pictured at the top of this page.
10:25 a.m. The first little guy didn't make it. He's at Rainbow's Bridge. I guess this is to be expected with a first litter. He was tiny.
I think Scooter was over due cuz this guy was holdin' up the show. The rest of the kittens seem to have the longest coats I've seen and their little nails seem longer too. He was the color of his sisters that followed him.
1) 10:37 a.m. GIRL This little girl will either look like her mama or her grandpa Sebastian. She's got the lightest face of all the girls.
2) 11:30 a.m. GIRL Another dark baby. She took a dunk in the cat litter. Mama was a little confused. :) She's a little darker than the first girl and possibly a tri-color. She's got tabby markings. They'll all lighten up as they grow.
3) 12:40 p.m. GIRL I think this baby is the most like her mama. She's got that velvety black on her back. She'll have a lighter face than her mama though.
4) 1:15 p.m. BOY WHITE! He may be an orange tipped Himie or he may stay white like his daddy. Too early to tell. He was born smaller than his sisters and he wouldn't eat. At 6:00 p.m. he still hadn't eaten so I gave him some 2% milk through an eye dropper. It's all I had on hand. He took that. I've also been giving him honey water. Don't know if he's supposed to have that or not. :) I tried many many times to get him to suckle with no luck. I tried again this morning with no luck. Then, about a 1/2 hour ago, I tried again and it worked!!! Praying helped! :) I don't know if we'll get through this or not. I'm feeling a lot better about it now than I was last night. I'll get him some kitten formula today and continue to supplement him. PRAY PLEASE!!!
First baby pictures!!! I didn't wanna' mess with um' too much. More soon.

I'll get better pictures soon. Stay tuned! :) All the girls are available. We'll have to see how it goes with the little white guy. Pray for him please.
Not quite a day old.
Sept. 28th, the babies are 4 days old. The little white guy is holding his own. I think he's going to make it. He's nursing, when his sisters don't push him away, and I'm supplementing him every couple of hours. He's still 1/2 the size of his sisters but he's getting stronger every day. Praise the Lord!!!

I took 55 pictures and these are the only ones that, sorta', turned out. Crappy camera teamed with a great lack of cooperation. :)
I suppose we should start thinking about nicknaming this gang???
Any ideas?
Melanie and Sean decided on little girl #3. There's still two girls available and the little guy. The little guy's condition is still guarded but he's a fighter!
Melanie and Sean are going to name their little girl, Scarlet O' Hairball. :) Pretty funny!!!
Okay, a great friend of mine came up with some nicknames for us. We'll call the little guy WILL. He obviously has the will to survive. And the girls we'll call, HOPE, FAITH and CHARITY. Although Charity already has a real name. Scarlet O' Hairball. :)
Oct. 17, 2006 Hello, we're back. I'm very sorry to report that we lost Will. He went to Rainbow's Bridge last weekend. He made it 14 days. He just wasn't growing. He was eating the supplements too. He must have had something wrong inside. He sure was a fighter. He's in an even better place now.
His sisters are doing very well. They're in the big cage now and lovin' it.

Sorry we've been away. I was busy with tax returns. :)
10/21/06 Babies will be 4 weeks old tomorrow! My, how time flies! :)
Hope and Faith are movin' to Michigan!
Sorry, no more babies available. We'll breed "Baby" and "Scotch" pretty soon.
Oct. 26, 2006 Babies are 4 1/2 weeks old. Scarlett is the most outgoing at this point. Faith is the most cautious. I just let um' out to run around for the first time and Faith clung to me at first. Scarlett took off like she owned the place. Hope was somewhere in between. :) Right now, after being put back in the cage, Scarlett is trying her darn'dist to get out. The other two like the security of the cage.

Faith and Hope are goin' to live with their new boys, Sam and Jack. Sam thinks he's going to keep Faith's name, Faith. Jack's not sure yet. He may change Hope's name to Joy. Pretty sure all these babies are going to be pretty spoiled!! :) Perfect!!!
Almost 6 weeks old, Nov. 3, 2006
