Baby Pictures, just barely 24 hours old

[emilysgk]

I remember Emily saying that Snow had to have a caesarian; she wouldn't nurse or go near the kittens (even growling) for the first 24 hours or so...probably hurt!

3 are nursing now (see Emily's first post here) and the little one won't nurse, so she is still hand-feeding it. It is gaining in strength, but still very small, as the pics show...

I hope they spayed her when they did the caesarian...I would hate for Snow to undergo more surgery!

They are SOOOOO cute! All torties, and the little grey one is so sweet. I really hope Silver one makes it. "Hi-yo Silver, Away!" GO, little one!

I LOVE the pic with the widdle PINK nosie!

He didnt spay her. He said that he would have, but could not because of the way he had to make the incision? It was a long day and I didnt ask for an explanation. I will ask when she goes back.

They are so sweet,I have not followed her being pregnant,Congradulations babies are always a blessing,Why did she have to have a csection?Was it too much for her to handle?She looks great though!!!Hopefully she dont tear herself!Im praying for that little silver kitten he is adorable!Keep up the good work!

Snow seems to be doing very well now. She is improving in the mothering department more and more. Im sure in a few days she will get it all figured out. Silver baby (Im still back and forth on he or she) seems to be doing quite well. Gaining strength more and more. I can see a little change, like its feet are looking less bony and filling a little to look more like a paw. He still tries to nurse, I have not seen sucess yet, but it puts a lot of effort into it. Im sure within a few days it will be caught up. Its possible he has done so at least a little and I just having caught it. He did get a chill this morning and I had to warm him up, he was pretty lathergic at that time. It was becasue my son (only 2) had unplugged the extension cord to the heating pad. But thats why I watch closley. Im watching the others too because Snows supply seems a bit compromised from the c-section, seem some work and others dont.

Here are some pictures I took of Silver baby after I posted the others last night.











A face only a true mommy could love...

ohhhhhhh..... what a cute little pile of multi-colored fluff! They are all adorable! I am glad that Snow is being better about the babies, but I bet you are right, she probably hurt at first from the c-section! I hope the little silver baby makes it! He/she is adorable!

Yes please keep us posted as to why he didn't. It doesn't make sense to me since the kittens are in the uterus, and that's what they remove when they spay. Totally baffles me. We frequently (at least on dogs) spay during a c-section.

The kittens are ADORABLE!! I really hope the little runtie makes it. Looks like mama is doing good with them now.

Keep us updated with how they are all doing.
