Hi guys!
I've been terribly busy having delivered these two litters. Bonnie went into labour and delivered 3 babies on Saturday/Sunday morning (past midnight). She is my Devon/Sphynx cross. She had 2 sphynx and one that may be a Devon, we'll have to wait and see. It has a bit of hair.
Then Monday night as I lay in bed. Molly is under the covers with me, I'm loving her up etc, and I feel contractions. She was moved into my sewing room with me to deliver. She had 5 babies. I went to our bed to go to sleep after that, as it's 5am.
Switched Bonnie's litter with Molly's so that Molly's kittens receive some antibodies/immunity from Bonnie for those first 24 hours. Also, so I don't need to feed every two hours.
Go to check on Molly's kittens later in the afternoon, and my daughter tells me that there is 4 babies with Molly. I just thought she wasn't seeing correctly and said "nooo". Then I look and low and behold, there's another kitten. So, Molly delivered six healthy babies. I've never seen a cat deliver a kitten after 12hrs of not, thinking she's done.
I have pics, well hubby does, and I'll post some this afternoon for all to see. Some very very nice colors and interesting patterns. Hubby just posted a group shot of Molly's babies on our website if you want to see. Bonnie's will be up soon.
