“Hey!”
“You brought me food!”
“But the babies need to be fed!”
“But there’s food over there!”
“MAMA WHERE YOU IS I AM HUNGRY!”
Pile o’ babies.
That tuxie with the white stripe on her nose is going to be TROUBLE, I can just feel it.

Okay, we’ve got sexes on each of the babies! Susan K, please choose your kitten and email me with the kitten number (or color description) and the name you want to use. (My email: mizrobyn (at) gmail (dot) com ) No big rush, just if you could get that info to me by the end of the weekend, I’m planning on introducing the kittens by name in Monday’s entry.
I also weighed them yesterday, their weights are below each picture.
#1 – Tabby White Stripe – is a GIRL. And she weighed 4 1/4 ounces.
#2 – Tuxie White Stripe – is also a GIRL. And she weighed 4 1/2 ounces.
#3 – Tuxie No White Stripe – is a BOY. He weighed a whopping 5 ounces.
#4 – Tabby No White Stripe – is also a BOY. He weighed 4 1/2 ounces.
#5 – All Black – is also a BOY. He weighed 4 1/8 ounces.
So, I think they’re all nice, healthy weights. I don’t remember how much Emmy or Maggie or Kara’s babies weighed, but a quick conversation with Google says that the typical kitten weighs about 3.5 ounces at birth.
I have a video for you! Kate went off to see what I’d brought for her, food-wise, so I made a video of the kittens. Who were somehow rolling around in a big ball of kittens. I’m not quite sure how they were doing that, actually. Kate would eat and then look at the kittens – you can hear her make an unhappy growly sound around 33 seconds – she wasn’t crazy about the way those babies were rolling around. She prefers them to lay, unmoving, until she gets back into the bed with them!
Can you handle the cute?

Sugarbutt thinks that the cat bed stuffed into a basket is the best invention since catnip.
