Bella Late In Pregnancy

Are they all nursing well now? Have you been able to weigh them?

Make sure to take mom’s collar off. Babies can get stuck and hurt as they climb on mom.

How absolutely wonderful! Congratulations. I'm so happy everything went fairly smoothly, they are beautiful! I bet both you and Bella are exhausted. That one grey kitten is huge, is that the one she had trouble with?

I think so. The 2 of them look the same. They were all latched on at midnight.

They are all nursing well. Mum doesn’t have a collar

Please be sure to weigh them daily!

Yip just got to sort some scales out

Hard to weigh them as they keep wriggling on them but they are all registering in around 120g some a little less and some a bit more. Large grey tabby was about 128g

Wonderful!

You can put a bowl on the scale and tare to get an accurate weight!

The grey tabby on the left of the pale ginger in the last photo is the one we didn’t think was going to make it. We are having trouble coming up with names. There are 3 boys and 1 girl( think it’s the one on the right, Grey tabby). Any ideas? Bella is the mums name

Well, since "Bella" is Spanish for "beautiful," you could go with Spanish names, or you could go with "Twilight" series names...don't ask me, "Bella" is the only name from the series I know.

If Twilight: Bella, Esme, Alice, Rosalie, Victoria for girls. Jasper, Emmet, Carlisle, Edward, Jacob for boys.

Had a hard night last night as we were about to go out and one of my cats turned up injured. He had blood on one side and his big tooth at the front on the bottom was just hanging out of his mouth. We took him to the vets and his side was still bleeding so was supposed to be as easy as sedating him, clean the wound and remove the tooth and X-ray. They said they would ring when that was done. 2 hours went by and we had heard nothing so I rung them. They told me it was worse than they thought and they had just finished surgery. He had torn his muscles inside and had a whole in his lungs. He suffers from anemia too and had a bad time waking up from the anaesthetic. We are waiting this morning for a call to see if he made the night.

Vets rung and he made it through the night. Still a long road ahead but is looking good

 

[Diotima]

Oh no! Best wishes for his recovery.

 

[Sarthur2]

Oh my! I am so sorry to hear that this happened. Thankfully you got him to the vet right away.

Good to hear he made it through the night. Prayers that his recovery continues to go well. Please keep us posted on his progress.

Will do won’t know anymore till tomorrow

 

[ashade1]

Oh wow! I wonder what happened.. How are the other kittens doing?

 

[Bella’s Babies 2017]

The kittens are doing great, very feisty. Always fighting over one teat. Cameo started purring today.
