Being overrun by kittens!
12 years ago
Over the past few months, almost every single one of our female cats has given birth. We are planning on and working on getting them fixed, but it is being postponed until after my fiance and I get married this fall. I don't want to hear any of you complaining about us putting off fixing them, we have been waiting to get married for two years, the cats only started growing so rapidly in the last year. To inform anyone who is trying to keep track (which actually includes me, writing this will make it so I can go back and figure out who is related to who in the next few years) the mothers and their kittens are as follows(from oldest kittens to youngest as best as I can guess):
Fuzzy Bagheera has two, Lucid who is male and solid black, and White Socks who is gender unknown still and a fuzzy black and white tuxedo.
Fuzzy Momma has three, all gender unknown still, Oreo is the bravest of them and is a black and white tuxedo, Cookie is less brave but is also a black and white tuxedo, Double Stuff is the most skittish and is a black and white tuxedo with a lot more white than any of our other black tuxedos.
Powermotor has five boys, and we had a geeky fun time naming them, The Master is a grey and white tuxedo with a thin white blaze, The Doctor is a grey and white tuxedo with a thick white blaze, Tennant has a black head, front legs, and tail, grey body, and white tuxedo markings with black on one toe and his chin, Harkness has black from his head down his back, front legs, and tail, grey body, and white tuxedo markings, Bannakavalatta is the runt of the litter and is solid grey like their mom and has a tail that is kinked in about five spots (has been since birth) so his tail curls around to one side.
Cute Nose has two, both gender still unknown, we haven't named them yet, but they don't come where we can see them very much. Both are grey and white tuxedos, and the braver of the two has a somewhat thick blaze on it's nose, and the more skittish has a thinner blaze.
Buffy has three (I think, they are the most recently discovered and I had to count by laser eyes from flashlight) and to the best of my knowledge one is solid grey and the bravest (came towards the flashlight), one is tuxedo looked black and white, and the third is the one I saw the least but it seemed to be dark with at least one light front leg (I called it a jester)
Mouse has four, all males, Phantom is the most obvious and is a grey and white tuxedo with one side of his face white including one ear, Quasar is the next most obvious and is a grey and white tuxedo with a thick white blaze and white cheek stripes making his face look like a pulsing star, the other two are unnamed because we can't tell them apart yet and both are solid grey.
Cross has two, both male, the larger one is Ash and is solid grey, the smaller one is Soot and he is grey with a black head.
The last two we aren't sure who the mother is, but we are almost out of females they could belong to, and the most likely is Fox, the slightly bigger one is Leo and he is an orange tabby that is just opening his eyes, and the smaller one is Panthro and he has a black head and a grey body and is not as far along opening his eyes.
These are our current 23 kittens and their eight mothers. I will do my best to add links of each mother and litter in the next few minutes, but I am going ahead and post it beforehand.

strays may run and not let you touch at first, but it's just a "I have to trust you first"
pretty much, it's a difference of numbers of hours they will have to put in to each cat. they would rather take in more cats that take x number of hours than take in 1 cat that would take x number of hours of work before it was adoptable. which is understandable, they don't have the manpower or the space to put that much work into each cat. I am fine with working with the cats we have to get them more people friendly before taking them to the shelter, then again I would rather take them to a no kill shelter or find homes for them myself.
At least you'll never have to worry about creepers
Can I borrow some of your cats then? Help clean out the summer time bugs here in Florida
