Mummycat Monday...

Well the kittens are now 7 weeks old and are getting pretty big! They are into everything and anything as well as doing there level best to eat Mummy out of house and home! ;) Oh yes they are just like D'Boy, always looking for their next meal... So much so that they all get together and make sure that I am not withholding milk from them a number of times each day, especially before nap time!

They have been pretty good in learning all about hunting toy mousies this past week, although they don't as yet have the all encompassing enthusiasm for the mousies as I do. Mummy tells me this is because I'm a little nutty about mousies... I assure you Mummy, my mousies haven't got any nuts in 'em or on 'em. I should know I've put the bitey on them good and proper many times now! ;) Oh yes there is little quite like putting the bitey on a toy mousie to make me happy! :)

Other than that Mummy fed us all some roast beef last night and the kittens devoured it like a pack of furry Parana! ;) Lastly Mummy's been planting us some more catnip for the cat run, so we'll have a total of 6 different varieties growing in there this summer! :) As you might have guessed my housemate Tigmut'hep is very pleased about this news...

Mummycat Monday...

Today the kittens are 1 month old, just look at what they've been getting up to. Well more to the point, what BG's been getting up to since she discovered the joys of playing with one of the little toy balls that Tama-Chan and #1 sent over. In fact she's become a little obsessive about it and tends to take it everywhere with her...

As you might notice LG has been working on her modelling career, as she poses so nicely now for every photo. Where as Boy is just happy to cuddle and hug everyone... :)

So as you can see they are all coming along nicely and now that they are walking better and starting to run it's lots of fun, though they still have to learn how to apply the breaks! ;)

Lastly it seems my dear little daughters have both developed a crush on Little "Red", so I have to listen to them talking about him all the time... I don't know how Boy copes with them doing this, at least I have my brother Ramses to talk to when I want some adult cat conversation! Ok, I can listen to Ramses talking about Mummy and chicken! ;)

Happy 1st Birthday Dandy, Delta-Peach, Django and Dizzy

Wow, can you believe that my first babies are now all cats?! It's amazing to see how much they have grown over the year and wonderful to see how well they are looking (above Dandy and Delta-Peach age 1 yr).

While here my latest kittens are turning 3 weeks old and are starting to get a hang of this walking thing! ;) Honestly it's quite amusing to watch them and I've seen Mummy, Daddy and D'Boy giggling quite a bit when one of the kittens does something funny too - though being their mother I have to do my best not to laugh at their efforts - at least while they can see and hear me! ;) So as you can imagine I occasionally have to make a quick exit from the room in order to keep myself from doing so. In fact Ramses finds he has to do the same, so we've made a bit of a game out of it! :) Above you can see BG doing her best to get into a good position for pouncing the camera, where as little LG is a star model and just sits there happily while having her photo taken! Where as Boy keeps trying to walk off every time Mummy tries to take a photo of him, even when asked nicely to stay still or sit. However he's always first in line when cuddles are being handed out and has never been known to be late for dinner at the milk bar and unlike his sisters, he never falls asleep during a meal! He is now therefore a good 20g's heavier than either of his sisters... Well he does seem to have his father's paws on him, so I expect he'll be a big boy when he's all grown up like his half-brothers are! :)

Anyway today I'm a very proud Mummy to all 7 of my babies, whether they are tiny and here or all grown up and off living with their own families! :)

Mummycat Monday...

Well it's hard to believe that the kittens are already 2 weeks old, they've been such good and well behaved little babies that time just flies by... So far they are quite unlike the 3 boys from my last litter better known and the "Escape Committee", these 3 are content just to cuddle, feed and play! :)

This is BG my biggest daughter practising her cute and innocent look, so far she's probably the best of all 3 at this! However Boy is by far the best at posing like a little lion, which reminds me of his half-brother Django... Boy is the strong silent type at present, but this is probably because he is rarely found without a full mouth! ;) Then comes the little one LG... She is as noisy as the others are quiet! Oh yes, this little girl has always got to get the last word in at the moment, I'm quite hoping that she'll grow out of it in time as she has a particularly shrill wail when she's starts up her complaining - there is one thing that's for sure, no one will ever take this little girl for granted! ;)

But for now they're all fast asleep and I think I shall be sensible and join them, before the next round of demands for feeding start up again! ;)

Mommycat Monday...

Well as everykitty might have guessed, it's been a very busy week for me this past one, what with 3 new mouths to feed and all. Not forgetting my usual duties of cleaning out my brother Ramses' ears and squabbling with Tigmut'hep over food and toys, waking Mummy up and depositing furs on Daddy after work! To top it off D'boy has been home all week and Daddy was home for a few days too - they do it to mess with my schedule you know! ;) All the same I manged to get the kittens fed and groomed and did all my jobs too, even if the dropped bikky in the kitchen did have to wait for 2 days for me to catch up on my work. Honestly if only Ramses and Tigmut'hep had been bought up properly that job would not be necessary... *sigh*

So above is my little daughter LG, looking all sweet and angelic for the camera. I have already told her that looking innocent and sweet will get her a long way in this life! ;) However Boy doesn't seem to have taken this on board at all and is constantly caught getting into mischief, mostly down to his insistence that he gets to sleep on top of or in the middle of his sisters and has the right to pull them off what ever nipple they happen to have latched onto if he feels like testing that one for a bit... All in all I'm starting to suspect that he's the trouble maker of the litter. BG is the strong silent type at present, happy just to suckle and sleep, so I wonder if my daughters will ever manage to keep their brother in line...

As you see right now they let Boy walk all over them! ;) However, I have to admit he does look funny having fallen asleep while attempting to get in the middle of his sisters for added warmth! :)

Oh and they've now all doubled their birth weight, so are doing better than their half-siblings did last year. Some of them took up to 9 days to double their birth weight! Maybe I'm producing a better grade of milk this time round?! Maybe this litter are just greedier?! What ever the cause I'm happy they're doing so very well... :)

Mega Mummycat Monday...

Sorry for not posting to my bloggy yesterday, but I was busy being in labour and having 3 gorgeous ickle baby kittens! :) Yes, I had my Mummy totally fooled by my big belly, but the kittens were all a good size when born and have been sucking the milk bar dry all night and are now 15g's heavier each! You know Mother's Milk is really good stuff, even if it does seem to make Skeezix all silly and his legs all wobbly! ;)
