Fairy and her babies


Well after a long wait. Fairy has finally decided to part with her babies.

Baby number 1 put in an appearance at 2.30 today weighing 115g, Baby number 2 showed up around 4pm weighing 118g and baby number 3 sneaked out around 6.30 weighing an impressive 130g.

There still feels to be another kitten in there so am keeping a close eye on her to see what develops in the next few hours or so.

Here are a couple of pics. Sorry they arent very good but will update them when she is a little more settled

Re: Fairy and her babies


Thanks everyone they are so gorgeous.

i can't stop looking at them. Fairy seems so laid back with motherhood and is constantly washing them and purring at them she loves them to bits.

She has had a lovely tea of salmon tonight and a good long stroke. Didn't want to cuddle her as she is probably still a little tender. Now she is settling down for a nice long sleep which is where I am going shortly

Congratulatios Sarah. (and fairy of course) She looks done in!
So was the final count 3 or 4?
Glad she's got into the swing of it nice and easy. You can put your feet up and watch the babies

Re: Fairy and her babies


The final count is 3.

However Fairy has now decided she won't let them feed . Everytime they latch on she stands up and moves.

Fed them by hand today on advice of my breeding mentor and they seem much more settled now with full tummies. Will keep giving a helping hand until Fairy gets the knack of letting them feed and then its back over to her.
