At the request of a few, I'm posting little kitty photos.  Skippy's little ones are now 10 days old and their little peepers are starting to open.  I've taken pity on the poor girl and let her out of her confinement for mini-vacations (okay...it's really so I can have a wee amount of snuggle time...I admit it).  Took some quick and I mean quick pics...and check their well...you know.  I think we have all boys (possibly 4 boys & one girl...ones a bit questionable)..no wonder momma's worn out.

They are fat, roly poly and sassy (yes, they can hiss!!!)   :crackup:

bear_wub They're GORGEOUS!!!  bear_wub Awwwhhhhh...... so are you keeping the little girl for yourself?  We all know how gorgeous these babies grow up to be, so finding them new homes shouldn't be hard.  I bet you've got a lineup all ready right here on TT  bear_thumb

Very sweet. They look a little sleepy...like maybe they weren't quite ready for their close-up just yet. Cute, cute, cute.

No no no, Daphne!  I've had my eye on the gray one since the very first peek, 10 days ago!  Now how to ship him from Washington State to Toronto, Ontario  :crackup:

Shantell, thanks so much for the pictures!  Are you sure Surrender is fixed?  Those top three sure look like Max  :crackup: !

Yep, I'm sure...there's nothing there...GONE!!!  :crackup:   Cute, huh!!!   They don't have the long hair like Max.  One of them has this nappy kind of fur...it's really weird looking stuff...but soft.  We are pretty sure the father is this silvery tigery big guy (big like Surrender but shorter haired) that comes around once in awhile.  He's absolutely gorgeous.  Surrender puts the scoot to him even after being neutered.  Skippy actually WENT to him....the little tramp.   She must just have really strong genes...along with her disposition.   :crackup:   :crackup:

It just cracks me up that at this age they hiss and let you know their little personalities.  The tiger kitty is the biggest and like Max, bulldozes over the others to get to the goods first.  bear_original bear_original   This is the one who I'm not sure whether is a boy or girl...my instinct is that it's a boy...I've had THREE cats like this...all were boys...but as of right now it looks alot like a girl...but then so did Max.   bear_wacko   bear_wacko   The others are definitely all boys.

Kitty slobbers,

P.S.  Confidentially...between me and you...I'm hoping to keep one for myself.  bear_original bear_original

If I remember my high school science correctly, I think kittens can have different fathers.   bear_whistle  Sounds like your girl had a great time  :crackup:

Nappy fur....do you mean crinkly like?  Isn't there a breed of cat that's hypoallergenic that has that type of fur?  Or maybe I'm just thinking of the Bashkir Curly horses  :doh:

So which one are you keeping?   bear_wub  bear_grin

Shantell: your kittens are adorable. I wanted to breed my Daisy but my Michael said "oh no....I know you....you'll keep them all". I said "nooooooo...I'd give one to my parents" (maybe).  He made his point...

Shantell, you just HAVE to keep one, this time.  Especially if you are getting Skippy fixed.  And stop calling that poor wee girl names - she's not a tramp.  How does the saying go - "if you've got it, flaunt it".   :crackup:  :crackup:

                                          hugs,

Oh they are so adorable! I love them all, but especially the 4th pic - the tiger one??? That's the one I want! Don't I wish too, Daphne!

I guess it's a good thing we don't all live near Shantell.... she'd be getting gifts and bribes and we'd be over there every day visiting the wee one, showing how good of mommies we'd be to the little tiger and saying "Pick Me!" "Pick Me!"

HEY!  I want the tiger!  Although, the creamy ones look the cat I lost two years ago...
All so cute, thanks for sharing!  We've had so many puppy pics lately (not that I'm complaining) it's time for some kitties!

I'm not sure how to describe it...but I guess crinkly kinda curly but not really curly...I'll try and get a better picture.  It kind of reminds me of my oldest son's hair... :crackup which is really curly if he were to actually grow it out.

I can't help it...you should see her...brazen...I call it as I see it.  But it's really a term of endearment.   bear_tongue  You know Lady & the Tramp...but in this case...it's Gentleman & the Tramp.   :crackup:

I spent some time laying on the floor in the garage right in front of her little cardboard cottage...I'm a sucker...watching Skippy and the babies...she was so cute doing this strange little purring...all I could see was little kitty butts crawling all over her.  I'm sure we have 4 boys...and the tiger kitty is a girl (unless some "things" drop over the next few weeks that is).

Deep down I want to keep them all but that is entirely ridiculous!!!
