“I sees what you’re doin’, lady.”
Eleven days old! They’re going need to start nursing in shifts, their fat little bellies aren’t going to let them all line up together for much longer.
Poor Lucy. Always somebody’s foot or butt in her face.
Belushi on Sunday, with his eyes just starting to open.
And yesterday, with one eye open all the way and the other one taking it slower.
The orange and buff bros (left to right: Louis, Shecky, Rickles, Skelton) are in charge of Security, it seems.
“LADY I SEES YOU! YOU DOESN’T LOOK ANYTHING LIKE I IMAGINED!”
Roseanne keeps an eye (or… two half eyes) on me.
Shecky (left) and Skelton think that Louis (center) smells terrific.
“Am seeing you, lady, and reserving judgement on you for the moment. I’m leaning toward hissing, though.”
When I changed out the bedding in the crate on Sunday, I put the kittens in this big cat bed. Before I could get them moved back into the crate, Lucy came along and joined them, then they started nursing, and so of course I had to wait ’til they were done to move them back.
I weighed the babies over the weekend – you can see the weight chart at the bottom of their page. I haven’t weighed Lucy since she gave birth, but I want to, just to see where she’s at. She’s eating plenty, and is obviously keeping those babies well fed!
