Our last 3, The boys

Well here is the last of the cats, This is when the boys were outside with there momma, but she moved them and we had to find them.One thing we learned since we couldn't catch the ferrel
cats we could try and get there babies, And earlier the better as by the time they get to be 3 months old and come out of hiding they are so scared that they become ferrels as well.And the process starts all over again. Momma cat had 6 this time god talk about a lot of work having to feed them... But this time i had a helper and that was Precious.

If you know anything about bottle feeding the little guys no matter if its kittens or puppies, one things you have to do is clean there behinders so they go to the bathroom, i use warm water and a cotton ball. But for some reason Precious decided that she wanted to be a mommy, I gave them a bottle and she did the rest, washed them slept with them and worried over them. You couldn't ask for a better serogate mom.

Not saying that the boys didn't have lots of females to look after them they did, All the girls helped in some respect, but Precious, well she was mom and she taught them everything.She just couldn't feed them since she was fixed and couldn't get milk.All the girls were fixed within 4 and 5 months.




Here is Precious, taking a quite time with Smily and under neath is Buttercup. See how well they all got a long.






We kept the babies in the bathtub with the carrier, and here is all

the babies and Precious sleeping away. they were about 2 months old before we ever allowed them to stay out of the bathroom. Precious would go nuts trying to keep up with them all when we did bring them out to play. She was such a good momma, and for her to never been raised by one, amazing.



This is Oliver feeding off the bottle. I have to confess I kept them on the bottle for almost 3 months. Our vet said to me don't you think its time you took them off the bottle? And I told her that they will quit when they get ready. Which they did.Anyway as i said there were six kitties, 5 boys and 1 girl, The gal at the feed store took one of the boys, which she took when they were still on the bottle as she wanted one she could bottle feed. I advertised the others once they were off the bottle,, but only had one other call, and the lady took the little girl and another boy, the girl was almost the same color, a very light gray.The same as Casey Coming up.

Here they all are in a small drawer in the bathroom, even now one of them will crawl in the drawer.
