(kittentummy) Yesterday Two Step became very territorial over her birthing suite, had an upset tummy, wouldn’t eat & her boobies were finally full with milk. I knew baby time was coming… and then her water broke on my foot 😬
I’ve had my fair share of mommies, but typically only catch the tail end of their births. Two Step was scared, protective, loving & brave all at the same time. I have never witnessed nor heard what I did last night with my other mommy cats. I am always impressed that mommies know exactly what to do, but couldn’t help but feel conflicted about her birth.
And yes, she gave birth under a bathroom sink because that’s the nest she chose. Mommy picks in this house. From what I can see, babies appear to be healthy & are being good little eaters. Two Step is a sweetheart, but these are still her babies. When she will allow me, I’ll give them a once over to make sure there’s nothing out of the norm. Maybe she will even let me change the bedding. But for now, she rests with her babies. @kittenitwithkiki said.
“Hello, do you think my babies & I are cute?” – Two Step @kittenitwithkiki said.
“Hi, I’m kitten Hutch.” 👋🏻👅 @kittenitwithkiki said.
Goodnight little ones 🌙 @kittenitwithkiki said.
Gnocchi, Chico, Munchie, Hutch, Baxter & Sprinkles are 1 week and 1 day old. They are gaining steadily each day thanks to the best momma. The babies are moving around a lot more & one of these little stinkers even has an eye open! @kittenitwithkiki said.
No #sundayscaries for these wee ones 🥰 @kittenitwithkiki said.
All y’all’s be real cute. @kittenitwithkiki said.
