9 weeks old - Jade and kittens

Mom has decided to dial back the age of the little ones. Watching them and checking development, she suspects they are closer to 4 weeks old this week. Jade is still nursing them....though she is also back to singing the "I need a man" song. Hopefully that will end shortly and then once the smaller kittens start eating on their own mom can get her spayed.

That is Jade in the doorway. When mom leaves the bathroom door open, this is where she hangs. The problem is that the room behind her is where all OUR stuff is....and we know better than to annoy a momma cat. So mom doesn't leave the door open much and definitely not when she isn't home.

Topaz and Jet are in the left corner and Quartz is trying to get Pearl's attention.

Weights: Jet 13 1/8 ounces and Quartz 15 1/8 ounces

Topaz weighs in this week at 11 3/4 ounces

Snoozing away the day.

Weights: Mica: 2 pounds 3 3/4 ounces (someone will be neutered soon)
               Ash: 1 pound 15 3/8 ounces (and if we wait a couple of days, Mica will have company)
               Amber: 1 pound 6 3/8 ounces
               Pearl: 1 pound 4 3/4 ounces

And now the one those of you in the contest are waiting for.....

Coral weighs: 15 1/4 ounces. (snort)

  3. We had to google convert oz to gm. Goodness gracious. It's still a long way to go! Come on Coral. July 28!! MOL.

    Mommy also knows better than to get in the way of an annoyed Mamacat. And a very swollen, bloody and painful lesson that was.

  5. Jade; trust me on this, you don't need a man, a bed, a 360 degree mirror and food service people yes....a man no, that two timer Thomas that stops by to visit ME keeps dashing across the street to Rosie's house..... I daresay

    and Coral if you eat, a lot, and don't play very much for the next month we think you will hit your 2 pound weight by the 14th...sleep and eat...that's the rule for the next 30 days !!! well, for like always really but .... !!!!
