Our babies

 2 days old

Well.. these are photos of our babies – we love each and everyone of them. Each time Sweetie has babies, I tend to share the sleepless nights. Bottle-feeding, rubbing, holding – whatever they need. Sweetie is a wonderful mum – she gets all protective, scratchy and hissy during the first month of the kittens’ lives. Usually I will handle the kittens myself during this time to ensure that the kittens are held as gently as possible. Only after the first 4 weeks, the kittens can be handled by our helper. At 6 weeks, they get introduced to the other 2 owners – my hubby and son.  Then they begin their exposure to life with humans, gradually until the time comes for them to go to new homes.

This gentle introduction and the role of a human caregiver in this respect, in our case, has resulted in extremely friendly, and affectionate kittens. In my experience with our kittens, they are trusting and loving towards us, and like babies, they will also invite us to play with them.
