Maud

[Mags]

Any signs with Maud yet PK?

[Fran]

No not yet Mags. She still doesn't appear to have 'dropped' :roll: Could be anyday now

[Mags]

I hope it doesn't happen the same day you puppy viewers are coming!

[Fran]

Well luckily I had some puppy people last weekend so I only have a couple this weekend now. But knowing my luck Mags that is exactly what will happen :lol:

[Mags]

It's quiet on here tonight - wonder where everyone is? :?

[Fran]

Yes I was just thinking the same. Where is everybody :smt017

[Fran]

Maud has been in her kittening box all day :shock: I wonder if she is getting ready??

[Abbi]

awwwwwww lets us know any news!

[Mags]

How exciting PK!

Good Friday babies maybe??

[bobbie3917]

hope all is well PK
let us know how things go

[Fran]

nothing yet :(

[Fran]

Maud is now out of the kittening box and sat on my knee. Doesn't look like it will be tonight :?

[Mags]

Awwww! Can you feel the kittens moving PK?

[Fran]

Yes Mags I have been able to feel them for a good while now. They were going crackers earlier :lol:

[Mags]

I'll have a guess at 4 kittens........what about you?

[Fran]

Not sure really, I don't like poking and proding. Perhaps 3

[Mags]

Oooh no, don't go prodding her!!! I was just having a little guessing game with you!! :shock:

[Moli]

Ive never had a cat thats had kittens, how many is the normal litter....

[Fran]

I know Mags but if you were an expert like Sam then I am sure you would have a good idea. She is only a small cat herself but she looks huge. I did think at one point it was def an odd number due to her shape, I have always been right with the dogs whether odd or even, you can just tell by looking. But with Maud I am now not so sure???? Ooooh I wish she would hurry up, I am so excited :-D

[Mags]

Yes, Sam would take everything in her stride - she must be quite an expert at kittening........must remember to ask her how many kittens she's brought into the world!

[Fran]

Not sure really Moli. Sam would be better qualified to tell us what the average is

[Moli]

You are lucky...I would love kittens, my cats have always been boys.....

[shonedek]

Well i have to say in all the years of cats i dont think there is an average.A lot depends on the female at the time of mating.4/5 is a nice size,but we have had 3 litters of 9 from persians and one of those is a tiny mum.Ive now had 2 litters of 10 and the parents were mother a daughter and all kits were white.
I would suspect that if shes going in her box it wont be to long ,however you can never tell as each cat is different and each pregnancy can be different.

[Fran]

9 or 10 :smt103 :smt103 :smt103 OMG I was thinking 3 or 4. Maybe I won't be keeping them all then!! I have a home for one, the receptionist at my vets is having one. She has now decided not to be in her box and is on the settee with me! She's going to keep me guessing ;-)

[Mags]

:shock: @ 9 or 10!

The waiting must be quite nerve wracking PK!!!

[Fran]

It is Mags, I am so worried she is going to come through it ok. I have puppy people coming today so I hope she holds on until at least they have all been!

[Mags]

Good luck with the puppy people PK!

[Fran]

Thanks Mags. I have just been tidying round and moping floors etc... Just having 5 mins while the floors dry. Well thats my excuse anyhow :lol:

[Moli]

How many pups did you have PK.....

[Fran]

She had 7 pups all chocolate. They are 5 weeks old.
