Week 2; Sunday July 17th 2005

Again a quiet week in which the baby’s grew nicely. Due to Jay’s a little bit poor milk production, we still need to hand feed the girls six times a day and the boy’s three times a day. But luckily the kittens are very easy to feed!! Except for CY, he really does not like the KMR!

Meanwhile all the kittens have opened up their eyes and they are starting to react to their surroundings. If we sit down in front of the bench entrance and start calling them, they all come waggling toward us! It is so cute to watch them on their wobbly little legs with their round little belly’s!

Jay is babbling to them all the time! The minute she jumps in to the bench, she starts prrrrt-ing and mraaaa-ing to her baby’s and they give cute little soft peeps back to her!

An other new development is playing with each other, crawling (on all four legs in stead of just pulling themselvs forewards with their front paws) and sitting up! A great couple of baby’s and a very nice week!
