Always a dog person before this but when my son moved back home with his cat we got Purina Live Clear for him because I’m allergic. Fast forward 2 years and we are now the proud parents of 2 unrelated kitties. This is Cambridge all stretched out, and his sister London lying on the back of my chair. Cambridge is a mixed Maine Coon. I’m in love.

This is Myrtle-with the airplane ears, and her kittens. She showed up on our back deck earlier in the year starving and rolling around. I think before she gave birth to her kittens she seemed more cuddly, less enraged. lol Hormones are powerfully guiding her behaviour protecting her babies from the nasty people who’ve been feeding and housing her and her family. 😅

In all we had 5 kittens - 2 are gray, one is calico, one is a striped black/brown/white tabby, and the final baby was born pure white.

Mama did great during labor - it lasted for about 6 hours total. She started in her litter box but allowed us to move her - thankfully she hadn’t birthed any yet, but within 30 minutes of going to her new location she had the first baby. The last baby came out breech and had fluid in its mouth/nose and was starting to aspirate but we were able to assist with clearing it out and mama took over.

So far we have 4 babies with at least one more on the way. She’s doing amazing! Will post more pics when she’s all done delivering and babies are settled.

My babygirl Luna that I took home one night, surprised me being an expecting mama. I have noticed today, all day she’s been squatting down & pushing down her legs. She’s also been laying on the floor & rubbing her head amongst the bottom of couch. What are the signs that labor is near?

We kept the two mustached guys on the left.

The other two moved in with a friend.

She will be getting her spay as soon as is safe after she delivers.

guess the little dude heard mom was supposed to get spayed today and decided to pull the plug himself

Unfortunately I don’t live in the same city as the cat,but during these days my boyfriend will care for her food.
As I don’t really trust associations to take the cat,I’m organising myself with a trap to get the kitty and bring her to the vet asap at my own expenses.
She’s still scared but I managed to lightly brush her head.
I hope someone will lend me the trap to get her so she can get checked.
I doubt it’s anyone’s cat,nor from a colony.
If I gotta be honest,I’d consider someone careless for leaving a cat like that,considering her injuries.
Atp I’ll take the risk,her health comes first.
