Nala had 6 kittens March 18th, '24
4-18-24
Six weeks old. They are starting to use the litter box and taste food. Overall they are mainly interested in Nala's milk bar. The 3 girls are large and fluffy and started wearing pink and lavender collars. The boys are smaller and very vocal however they are gaining fast and might end up the same size or larger. It is a wait and see thing. The smallest boy is doing great . He nurses non stop and has lots of energy.
They all love to play soccer with ping pong balls and wrestle with each other.

April 8th 3 weeks
All eyes are open. They are adventuring around the box and tolerate being held well. Grandma enjoys petting them in her lap . One boy kitten is smaller and went to the vet for a check up today. We will wait and see how he grows and recheck him in a few weeks. The other 5 are all gorgeous with varying shades of grey. All have blue eyes and are quite chubby. Mama Nala is doing a fabulous job with them and she herself is eating enough for an army of cats. I think we have 3 girls and 3 boys.
March 26th, One week old. Six beautiful kittens nursing.
Nala gave birth to six kittens. All will either look like mom or Dad, (Mikola)..and all will have blue eyes. In the photo below they are just drying off and mama Nala is taking a break for a minute. Normally she is with them every minute. Genders and exact colors will become more clear in coming days. A few are definitely lighter so will have Dad's silver blue lynx coloring. Nala is being a terrific mom. It is her 2nd litter but she knows how to love them. She had them last night on the 18th and purred loudly all night next to them. They are all nursing and active.
