And we have a picture

Here is the first picture of Emma's kittens. They are about a week old now - and their eyes are just starting to open. We have one boy and three girls. They will all be seal lynx bicolors - like daddy (Crispin). They are still very little, but it looks like we will have some very nice markings - possibly even some show quality. We will keep our eye on that!

New Kittens

Emma had her kittens this morning! She was very nice and waited to go into labor until I woke up. As soon as I rolled out of bed she came up to me and led me to her birthing room - and a few minutes later had her first kitten. She has four in all - and they are big! I'll get pictures up soon.

Play time

Cheya's kittens are so much fun right now - they are fluffy balls of playfulness. I could sit forever and watch them with their little toddler ways. They have started to move outside of the birthing room - into the rest of the house. It's fun to watch them explore the new surroundings - running into the fireplace screen over and over again (Why can't I get through?)...and playing with everything new. They are almost completely litter trained already - at only 5.5 weeks. And they are eating solid food and drinking water...and playing with water ;-). They love the scratching post - and spend hours playing on it. See how much they've grown by looking at their new pictures. They love people and run right up to anyone that comes into their room. They also love to be held - and will even fall alseep cuddled up on our laps. They are all so very cute - and so very sweet!
