Leila's baby.


At last Leila has given birth. She kept me waiting a week past her due date but today at 11.55am she produce her kitten. At 2.20pm she then produce a placenta that contain 2 undeveloped embryos measuring just 3mm each. These would have been identical twins but they obviously weren't meant to be. Leila is very settled and baby has had several little feeds. I am not 100% sure that she has finifshed but we will have to wait and see. The first three pics were taken 20 minutes after birth and the last two about 7 hours after. Hope you like him, well I think him , things have been known to change on that score. I am not sure what colour as yet. He could either be a colourpoint or a cream self. Time will tell.

Re: Leila's baby.


Well welcome to the World little man and I have to say the third picture is that of a Mommy cat defending her baby I would not want to cross her. Isn't he fluffy I imagine thats what long haired kitten are fluffy.

How long do you wait to see if there are any more then Kay?

All the best to the little man and his Mom.
