I've heard from a lot of people that it's good to feed the mommy kitten food as opposed to adult cat food, just for the nutrients that are in kitten foods.

We were NOT expecting 6! A co-worker, who owns cats, has bred them and shown them for competition, told me it looked like no more than 3 or 4.

They're so adorable and I'm glad that everyone is doing well. My childhood orange cat had 2 litters of nothing but orangies because the father was also an orangie. She had 6 kittens each time so I used to think that this litter size was normal. I learned much later that these were very large litters. I also learned that most orangies are males. I guess it's a sex linked thing.

Wow, six! You're gonna have fun!

Those kittens look about the right size for newborns.

I have found that mixing dry KMR with all the wet food Mama will eat is good. After all, she has 6 extra mouths to feed! Gorgeous Mama and kittens.

yes kitten food or KMR is good for mamas. They pass the extra nutrients on to their babies.
