I'll ry another way tomorrow. Got to get to sleep, it's my daughter's b day in the morning and I have to be fit.

aww night cologne

Awww happy birthday  to your daughter Cologne

Thank you lovely people. If I'm honest, I'm still shell shocked (sp) about brisket. I talk about him to my rl friends and I cry. Sorry.

I know exactly what you mean Cologne

I hope this works.

...and a few more.

Lovely cat and kittens Cologne.

Thank you katty. Now please tell me how to get liquorice and henry to eat solids. Twinkle is great and becoming more independant by the hour, but not matter what i PUT IN FRONT OF THE OTHER TWO, THEY (sorry caps) won't eat.

Oh Cologne I've no idea,ask me about rabbits,hammies and budgies I'm yer woman. Maybe some of the others who've had kittens could help,or check the net I'm sure there must be help out there.

My nieces Hugo was already on solids when she got him,the breeders keep them 'till they feel they are old enough to go to their new homes etc.He was feeding on kitten food wet pouches (whiskas) at the weekend as a treat ,kitten kibble the rest of the time.He's now on adult food and eating great.

They're darling!    Lovely kittens Cologne and I LOVE their names! I hope you are well x

I've been talking to the Vet's nurse (I've known her for 20 years with my dogs).  She said to give them something pungent like sardines, but clean off whatever they're in (like tomato or oil etc.). I've done that and twinkle is eating really well (combination of fish and whiskas kitten), but the other two will only lick it off my fingers, but not go and eat. I suppose they will have to soon because poor old mutley seems really fed up, she's even stopped bringing in little birds. Thank the Lord.

I am feeling very well over the last few days, don't know why (upset about brisket, but my breathing has improved). The names for the kittens came about because liquorice is an all sorts, twinkle was my friend's son suggestion and she will have her and henry just seems to suit him really well.

What about minced up plain boiled chicken? most cats seem to like that.

Good idea, thank you katty. This has made me think that I've got lots of stuff in the freezer that they might like. Thanks again.

I like Twinkle - I had a Winkle once - she was female but I loved the name.

I love the little tabby!

Thanks soozy. The little tabby is the one I want to keep (apart from liquorice), but my friend in these parts can't make up her mind between henry and twinkle. If she doesn't tell me soon, I will just keep all three and be done with it.

They are gorgeous....I adore Kittens....so cute....keep them all...

Beautiful

They are so cute Cologne

Aww Cologne they are gorgeous!

Thanks all, I feel like a proud mother.  

Great pics, Cologne. Your kittens are gorgeous.

Thanks yogi

 Talking of which.... did your daughter have a nice birthday Cologne?

Ish Baz. We've all been ploughing a bit of money in and she used it to go shopping for her daughter and kittens, but the big thing is Glastonbury. I've paid for the train and the taxi, dad has made money available for shopping, friends have sent money in case she has to pay for gigs. We all rally around her because it's been her dream for 15 years and finally she can do it. Daughter is well looked after, cats are well looked after, she only has to think of herelf for the first time in years.

That's lovely Cologne

baby cutie pies

Thank you Gypsie, they reall are.

I thought I'll just post one more of mum. Everybody comes in and they're all over the kittens, but poor wee mutley doesn't get a look in although she's done all the work. Anyway, here she is (if it works). Last year around this times, she was a tiny as her babies.

awww cologne - mum and kittens - all cute - would have any of them

Thanks rosgirl.

Katty, I just have to thank you again. All my kittens are now eating chicken liver, all my fingers are bleeding for offering them the smell and taste, but I don't have to worry about them dying anymore.  

Latest update, one of my kittens (which used to be called Twinkle and is now Archie after a gender determination ), is leaving us on Saturday.

awwww, suppose its good and bad... but at least he will have a loving home... they are all so sweet,, i am smitten

Twinkle, twinkle, little testicles...

Cologne are you getting mum spayed,in case of more kittens?

I know you will miss him Cologne, but at least he will have a good home

She's booked in for next Thursday.
