How wonderful that you have taken her in - gosh, she is such a beauty.
I am really excited now too - to hear about her babies.
I have never seen an x-ray of kittens either - so I really appreciate your posting it.
And your English is wonderful -
Good luck "MOM"...............(that's you too, Anna)
I'm so jealous... and I wish I'd seen this thread earlier! What a pretty lady! And I'll also be sending healthy and happy mommy and babies energies your and Minette's ways!!!
I hope she gives birth soon! And I wanna see pictures when she does! I'm sure everyone does :P teehee!
I hope that everything will go well tomorrow. I'll be keeping her in my thoughts and prayers.:)
Thoughts and prayers headed her way.
Oh I am just seeing this thread now.
What a lucky kitty Minette is- and of course I cannot count the babies.
Grisette my first cat had kitties two times (30 years ago ;)) first time because then I thought it would be better for the cat to have kittens one time, second time because I thought she wouldn't get pregnant while nursing (Two times wrong thinking, I know).
First time she got them in a closet. Of course we had prepared a nice box but she wanted a sheltered spavce with noone around- and Minette might think the same.
I hope the babies are born naturally- would be better for the relationship between them and their mom.
I suppose whatever they will have inherited they will be the cutest babies ever.
I will be sending all my good luck vibes to you and Minette today!
I hope all goes well.
Oh, I hope all goes well and she gets healthy kittens! Couldn't your vet tell from the x-ray when you could expect the kittens? And how many.
Best of luck! :)
How wonderful of you to take her in,I see atleast 7,Count the back bones,It is hard to justge by how many heads you see,That is how the vets calculate isnt it?They go by how many backbones they see.
Seven was ((and for that matter still is)) my guess!!! Common kitty!!!
Only one made it :(
Three were already dead,the other three get assited respiration (?) but they were very weak and only one survived:(
Minette doesn't look very interested in nursing him/her :(
Here is the sweet little thing.

Attached is the same picture at full size.
Oh, those poor kittens! I hope you can save the last one.
Come on, little one! We're all praying for you. :)
Maybe if we gave the kitten a "fighter" name, like Rocky, Leo, Tiger, Max, J.L. (for Joe Louis).

Or if a girl, Harriet (like Tubman) or Rosa (like Parks).Quote:

Oh no ... how awful! :( No telling what poor Minette went through before she found you. I've lost whole litters before, and it is so terrible to see them fade away so tiny.
HUGS,
Kim :(
I am so sorry....she must have been starved enough that the kittens died or were too weak to survive...
I hope Minette starts nursing! Though I am sure she is sore...do you have any bottle feeding set up?
Thank goodness you saved her...she'll never have to go through this again.
Seven babies...my goodness.
RIP little ones.
Did the vet say anything about why the kittens were so weak?
How is Minette?
{{{{HUGS}}}}
Anna, I'm so sorry to hear this.:( I hope that this little kitten will thrive. RIP little kittens.:(
I am so terribly sorry. How is Minette? Sounds as if she is too exhausted to nurse. All the best for the poor little survivor.
How very sad. Sending all my very best wishes to you, Minette and the little survivor. I hope the little one is strong enough.
Oh how sad. Well, they went straight to the RB, sweet things. Lots of prayers going out to the survivor.
It's heartbreaking to hear that six of those poor little babies are at the RB. Prayers are being prayed that mommycat will bond with and care for her only surviving little newborn and that this precious little baby will gain strength and in time be someone's loyal and loving companion. Please keep us up on how Minette and her baby are doing?
Awww I'm praying for you and the kitten and mother right now. It's extremely heart breaking.
:D On another happier note, the kitten is very cute, and I love his/her little claws!!! :D
How is the baby doing?? Poor little thing!
Thanks everybody! He is doing ok.
Oh good!
We will look forward to more pictures!
Is Minette nursing him now? I hope she is feeling better!
How sad that only one survived, Minette must have been through some rough times. :( Has she started nursing the little one? Sending positive thoughts for him, poor little thing - and hope Minette get's her strength back.
Prayers were offered at church this morning for Minette and her little baby. Has Minette started to let the baby nurse? Is she bonding with her tiny one? Thank you so very much for helping Minette and working so hard to give her baby a chance at a life full of love and caring. As you can, please let us know how they're progressing?
A couple pictures from yesterday. :)

Will try to edit and add text later on when I'm come back,have to go.... :)
ohhhh TOOO CUTE!!!! :D
Minette looks comfy enough, and content to have her little one nursing!
koxka, there was another cat on here who got pregnant too young (she was rescued from an owner who was stupid); she had five beautiful kittens - all but one died!
The one that lived got ALL the milk, and got to be a very big boy!
It will be wonderful to watch this little half-meezer grow up.
Thank you for posting these when you ar so busy...it's a relief to us to see this!And thank you again for rescuing her!
How wonderful to see the baby with Minette! Thanks for the picture! :D
I am so glad to see that Minette is fine and that she nurses the baby :) That is the best outcome for both of them :)
oh my goodness! that momma and baby pic is just too precious!! i'm so glad they are both doing well!!!
I'm glad to see that both mother and baby are doing well and I hope that they continue to do so.:)
What a sweet picture and thanks for taking the time to post. It will be so much better for the baby to be nursed by Mom - and a lot easier on you too, for sure.
It is just so dear to look at! Minette sure is one beautiful Mom too.
Bless dear Minette for nursing her baby after what she's been through! And bless you too for keeping us posted. Drink up, little one!
Love, Columbine
Can you see he/she is growing?! :)

Oh yes, he/she certainly is growing. :) You can really tell the difference from the last picture. Isn't it wonderful. :)
Thanks for taking so good care.
That baby is sure GROWING! You and Minette are doing a WONDERFUL job. :D I hope Minette is healing and feeling much much better.
He/she is so dear. Just look at that little belly growing.
Thanks for the picture, but especially thanks for taking such good care of Momma and her baby.
omg.. how precious is she?!
