I will try and get some pics up, unfortunately I'm a bit pants with the whole pic/computer thing...well gives me an excuse to have another go.
She definately has more to come. Apparantly it's pretty common to have some then wait for night time again to have the rest. Lets hope she has them in her nest box (Old divan drawer) this time and not on my bed!
They are lovely. She had a litter earlier this year, unfortunately they all died. Seeing this lot I know the others weren't 'cooked' enough. These guys are strong with big fat bellies full of milk.
I just hope she doesn't have too many more, worried she will cope with too many more. Also hope I can get her to the vet and get her done once the kittens are grown before she goes out and floosies it around the neighbourhood again.!!!
Gazing wonderously at kittens may well take precedent over flying this week.Hi, we’ve had to remove your signature. If you’re not sure why please read the forum rules or email the forum team if you’re still unsure - MSE ForumTeam0 -

I just quote my most recent list post and then remove the [ QUOTE ] [/ QUOTE ] bits from around it. That way the strikes should get carried.

All dailies done xx
Welcome to the newbies xx
Got a lot of support from friends re starting my new course on top of the welsh one and placement so all is well here.
Will be going to bed soon so have a god night all (esp Toots xx) and will see you all in the morning xx0 -
Just checking in- only got vacuuming done today in bedroom but did a thorough job. I do a 5 min room rescue in there each day as part of my morning routine so it is looking ok at the moment without too much work.
Sorry am not getting time to read the rest of the posts, am so tired and achy at the moment and not up to much. Huge thanks to everyone on here as usual- hope you all enjoyed the gorgeous day
xx Go to the ant, thou sluggard0
