we have kittens!
Three teeny ones, two white with orange and black patches (calico) and one mostly black with flickers of orange (tortoiseshell). This means the father is probably Snow, since if you count back 60 days he still had his balls. It also means that all three are most likely girls (from my limited understanding of feline genetics)
The kittens were born next to my pillow starting at 1.30 AM EST. You can imagine I am not so thrilled about that, especially since I had taken the mattress cover off for laundering a while back and hadn't yet gotten around to replacing it. Yes, I deserve that 40 on the procrastination scale. Also, I think I am going to have to throw away the sheets.
Reading sites like this one totally intimidated me, but in the end, it all went smoothly without my having to do anything but lie there and wish I was getting more sleep.
She may not look that pleased, but she's purring. They all are.
