    Well Surprise, surprise, surprise, surprise!

    I was doing my 90MPH mad dash this AM feeding etc. phone rings at 6:45...my friend Pat had a kitten brought into the store where she works...I dragged a brush through my hair, brushed my teeth, and went to get the baby...sex unknown right now. I settle the baby in, dash through the rest of morning stuff, and about to head out to work when I hear a squeak coming from my triple decker cage, that has 3 altered males, and an unknown sex cat trapped last Friday. Well lo-and behold...now I know the sex of cat #4! I had NO clue she was pregant She was giving birth as I was about to run out the door. The kitten squeaking was ice cold! I ran upstairs with the baby, and plunked it in with a mama who birthed 4 (5, but one died) on Sun. then off to work. Good thing I drove home to check between jobs, as there were 2 more ice cold babies that had fallen to the bottom section (onto lambswool bedding I threw in this AM). Mama was nestled into the nook created by the ramps to the top deck nursing a 4th baby. I had to drag out the males in there with her, and relocate them! I gave the upstairs mom a 6th baby, and left the surprise mama with the other 2. Whirlwind day so far. I guess it's a good thing I trapped her!

    Talk about the shock of a lifetime. Good thing you were keeping an eye on her

    Jan, I am exhausted just reading about your life! Keep up the good work.
    Ask your vet about microchipping. ~ It could have saved Kuhio's life.

    Busy day! Whew! You sound like one of those commercials for Multi-vitamins or V8 or something!

    Good thing you saw her having babies when you did, or you would have come home to a sad scene. You are amazing, and I'm ever more convinced you're an angel.

    They no doubt would have been buried under our next predicted snowstorm 6-12 coming over the next 24 hours, and I've had more than enough snow! I'm so glad I trapped her when I did that's for sure. I've spent the afternoon juggling misc. other kitties to Petsmart etc. No rest for the weary...*sigh* Kim (catnapper) VERY glad I was home when the surprise arrival squeaked, otherwise it would have froze in the cage. I guess I thrive on chaos lol!

    Wow Jan, someone was obviously looking down on that mama.

    Good thing is right, that you got her in time and that the unexpected mama started to have her babies, before you bolted out the door.

    No rest for the weary eh Jan. Glad all the babies are doing well.

    UH HUH!!! Winter's never over until it's over! OH!!! It still gets better! The same day Miss Surprise was trapped, I trapped (with Leslie) two more preggos in a nearby oh so lovely city! Cat dumping grounds mind ya! Trapped them on Friday, and the biggie gal gave birth to...drum roll...FOUR TABBIES on Monday! Luckily both went to foster angel Larry's home! And that left me with Miss Surprise! I'm telling you...it's THE YEAR OF THE TABBY!
