Thank you for taking this beautiful mama cat in and saving her poor babies from an uncertain future! I am sure she knows and appreciates all you are doing for her. She's one lucky kitty!

*ahem* any more pics of mom and babies?

**freckledimple** · 06-25-2009, 06:44 PM

More pictures as promised

OMG! and all pure black like Mom!

I take it they are nursing well and are healthy considering their rough start inside their hungry mom?

Mind you...I have read that a mom cat's body will start stealing calcium from the mom's bones if needed for the unborn kittens.

Thank GOD you and your roomie found and fed her!

Well, all black, except for the little two-toned one; but we don't know if he'll keep that color as he grows

They are all nursing well so far, even the runt. Pretty Mama is a good mommy, and not nervous at all. In fact, she gets a little jealous if we pay more attention to the babies instead of her

She lets us handle the babies, but she makes sure she gets her pettins' too

I'm so glad to hear that mama and babies are all doing well. I look forward to watching them grow and seeing many more pictures in the future.

Oh little Two Tone w/his feetsies up in the air is just too ridiculously adorable! And Mama w/her tongue sticking out...c'mon! Cuteness runs in that family for sure!
