Throw Back Thursday: Kitten Selfies.
I rarely use my iPad to take pictures because it’s so big and bulky. I do, however, often use it to let the kittens play with the selfie app. The other night I happened to look at the photo album on my iPad and discovered that there were 1000+ pictures. When I went to look, I found a ton of selfies of the Squash Bugs. The majority of them were just totally dark because the kittens love to lay on top of the iPad after they’ve played with the app, and don’t care that it’s constantly taking pictures of their bellies. Some of them came out, though – these are my favorites.
Zuke. He looks surprised, doesn’t he?

I love how it looks as though King Nubbs is gazing adoringly up at Miz Poo. He’s all “My Queen!”
This might be my favorite picture of Stefani. Gorgeous girl!
King Nubbs watches Levine audition for the role of court jester.
A Nubbs pie!
Levine and his long, long tail – and Nubbs and his nub.
“What, lady? What?”

Our little mama is doing well. She likes to look at herself in the mirror.
She talks a little, usually when I’m doing something and haven’t sat down yet, but isn’t a big-time talker.
This reminds me of the picture of the dog with ham on his face.
I wish she’d spend more time laying down so I could get a closer look at her belly (and perhaps watch it move), but she only lays down for a moment or two before she’s back up walking back and forth, rubbing against me.
Things that make me think she’ll be going into labor soon: she’s not eating much, and she’s spending a lot of time in the crate.
Things that make me think she’s not going into labor anytime soon: the fact that I never have a clue about this sort of stuff, and the fact that I was concerned that she’d go into labor before I got her. I also worried the same about Lucy, you might recall, who waited a couple of weeks before giving up those babies. In fact, most of our mamas waited 2 – 3 weeks after we got them to have their babies (except for Kara, who had hers the day after we got her), so we might be in for a wait.
The fact that this girl is so young (estimated 9 months old) makes me think that this is likely her first litter. AND her last! I hope that she has a smallish litter – 4 sounds good to me.
I am ready for her to give up those kittens, for sure – patience has never been my strong suit.

When you see Kara this far inside – she’s in the heated bed in the front room – you KNOW it’s cold and rainy out! She’s like “The back yard can take care of itself – this Sheriff is hibernatin’!”
