Kitten update

Jodie's tiny kittens

Jodie was brought into the centre on Friday with six tiny kittens. We noticed that the kittens were fighting to get mum's milk, this led us to believe that only a few of Jodie's nipples were producing milk. Three of the kittens are quite small, we have been keeping a special eye on them to make sure that they are feeding.

This image was taken earlier today. It's always hard to photograph black kittens, especially when mum is the same colour too!

Carmen's kittens

Carmen's babies are growing up so fast. They are becoming more mobile and more inquisitive by the day. Soon they will be running around and playing.

They are really starting to look like little cats now, its so lovely to see them develop. Mum has been doing a fantastic job and all the babies are a healthy weight.





They didn't no quite what to make of the camera and one of them starting hissing at it! Bless them, they are so adorable at this age.







Hope's kittens

Blimey how these four have grown in the last few days, its incredible. Mum Hope has been doing a grand job. She does seem very happy with herself and so she should be. What a lovely family photo, Hope is such a poser! 

We will keep you updated on how all three mum's and kitties are getting on over the next few weeks. Don't you just love kitten season?!
