3 plus 3 equal ? A very happy Tinsley !!!

My friend at the vet called me today and said a lady had 3 baby kitties born on the 5th, that the mom got hit by a car yesterday. Would I consider taking them to see if Mama Kitty would take to them and nurse them. Well of course I would. :D Bought bottles and milk replacement as backup while I was out today working. Went to vet after work and got the babies...3 little things black and white....Mama heard them cry and I put them up to her and she let them nurse and then started licking them. :yay: :yay: :yay: Gosh they look so tiny next to the older 3. The older ones are trying to walk and playing a little now. Told Mama Kitty what a good girl she was while I was petting her and she was letting kittens nurse....they cried a little and tinsley started scratching at the door. Of course that little bum was wiggling a thousand miles a second when I came out of the room. :excited: :excited: Tinsley is going to have so much fun in a couple of weeks with 6 babies..... :hearts: :hearts: :hearts: I don't know if they will make it, the lady that brought them in didn't know to keep them warm, but she did try to feed them, only they wouldn't eat because they were cold. Now Mama is curling up around them warming them. Hope they make it, but,,,,know we tried if they don't.

You are outstanding!!! I do hope the new babies will be Ok. Hopefully being able to nurse and have the warmth offered my momma and your attention they will fare just fine. Can not wait to see pictures of what seems to be developing into a tribe!!!! and Tinsley of course!!!!
The fact they are nursing is a big plus. Surrogate Mom will know what to do and the larger kitties may also help in the warming. Hope they make it! You can still help out with the feedings......but not sure you'll have to.
Oh my goodness how exciting! Tinsley must be ready to just BUST! I have been gone for Spring break with the kids, I could read but not respond to anything.....I am thinking this mumma kitty sure has done a huge 360 since you first brought her in. You have had a huge impact on her! You are amazing - look at all the good you are doing!!! Thank you for the warm fuzzy in my heart today!
morning update, mama is nursing the 3 little ones and they are all warm and happy. Mama is purring loudly. :hearts: :hearts: Tinsley guarding the door, lol the 3 older ones wobbling over to me and playing with each other some. so wish i could stay home from work and just watch them. that would be so much fun.....but, i owe, i owe, so its off to work i go.....
good news. kittens, puppies, etc are pretty tough. And mama is a good mama. Tinsley will be so happy!
This makes me happy. Thank you for all you are doing for the bubs.
Last night I spent time in there with them checking on them and Mama Kitty. It reminded me of a bunch of Piranhas trying to eat. :lol: Little ones pushing each other out of the way, bigger ones pushing the little ones out of the way, little ones meowing, screeching, feet flailing. pulled the bigger ones away for a while so the little ones could eat. Tinsley is happy, but I admit, I am having fun too. :hearts: Reminds me of when I fostered a bunch of kittens for a rescue group I used to help years ago. They also said they would help me try to place them when the time comes. Now if I can just figure out the picture thing again.... :roll:
Kitty update..One has a home and two more are going in one week..a rescue group is placing the other 3 pics on their web site for me...I let Tinsley in the room the other day to see Mama and that tail wagged so fast I thought it was gonna fall off..wasnt sure if Mama would be upset but she went right up to Tinsley and now the babies are going up to her and playing with her. They have been fun, but it will be so nice to have the bedroom back and get Mama spayed.
what a great story! Glad they are doing well and hope they get home quickly, tho I know Tinsley would prefer to have playmates for awhile.
You need to have a revolving door for fosters, just so Tinsley can have babies to visit.
What a wonderful update.
Sheepieboss, Tinsley still has her playmate Cloud kitty from this summer. She licks Cloud all the time and Cloud just loves her....my other kitties kinda tolerate her,,,but Cloud loves her :hearts: :hearts: and is constantly around her...so she still has a special playmate and one is enough :D
