And before you ask, yes, we have a female cat named Edgar. She came with that name, we got her from a friend up the road when we were having a mouse problem in our house. Apparently our friend didn't know that Edgar was a female, until she had kittens last spring bwa hahahha.
A year later Edgar's a Mom again, we have homes for all of the kittens, and more. We're actually considering not spaying her and letting her have another batch, she does all of the work, she's an amazing Mommy and we have people lined up wanting kittens. Plus you all know by now how much we love breeding lmao, at least we've stopped letting the chickens hatch eggs...
One grey, two grey/white/black, and one all black.
It's really hard to tell but there is the second kitten being born in the photo above. They really camouflage in, it was very difficult for me to get good photos.
Her labour started around 4pm yesterday. She was meowing at me a lot, and I figured it was probably time. She wanted a lot of pets, as long as I was stroking her she was quiet, but as soon as I'd stop she'd start back up meowing again. I'm super grateful that she wanted me to be a part of this experience, and that she didn't want to just go hide somewhere to have them. I admit, I was definitely all sentimental feeling remembering my babies...
I have the most photos of her with the grey one because it was first lol, we all know how we are with the first child...
She Let the Boys Hang Out Too
Brendan and the children absolutely loved the experience. Everyone was gathered around, and the younger boys had so many questions, it was a really great night for all of us. I'll leave you all with this video...
wow..... so nice...
I can really feel with you, reminds me to my time as a rottweiler breeder in Germany...
same, same, but different, hehehe
Best regards

So beautiful. So glad we got to see them before they were even 24 hours old. So cool. Too funny when you think of it. The first one out is the one we found sleeping on top of the kitten pyramid. Very awesome indeed. Lynds you make an awesome midwife. Your skills in animal husbandry are blossoming. Thank you Edgar for this breathtaking experience. xx
Aww, thanks so much for the beautiful compliment <3 I'm smiling lots :)
It was so great that you and Craig came over this afternoon to see your grandbabies hahaha! <3 <3 I loved how Edgar totally trusted you guys to be around the kittens!
Such a tender, miraculous moment. I, too, get very sentimental about birth. It just flings the door to my heart wide open. Thank you so much for sharing.
Bueno si, cuando era soltera y vivia en casa tuve perro, conejos, periquitos, palomas y peces. Despés que me casé como es apartamento sólo tuve agapornis y peces. Pero mi deseo es que cuando tengamos la casa tengamos un perro. y mi niña también quiere un perro.
Ths is so awesome! Congratulations Grandma! LOL I told you some cats like to have a midwife but Edgar was lucky, she had a whole midfamily! She is a good momma. Now for sure, you won't have any mice visiting your house!
Yes, you totally called it!! I couldn't believe when she was doing exactly as you described...coming to get me when the labour started, so amazing! And LOL to the midfamily!! HAHA I can't wait to tell the boys that one tomorrow <3 xoxo
Awww, @lyndsaybowes! How are you, my dear friend?! Edgar's such a good mommy! Black cats are the best. They tend to choose one human and latch on for dear life... at least that's what our black kitty did. Resteemed!
Hey Karen!! I'm doing great, and loved your recent post with the beautiful peacocks..! Edgar has definitely chosen me as her human...I'm so lucky! I hope to be best friends for many years to come <3 <3 Would love to have a kitten naming contest but they're all going to other homes in a couple months :( Thanks for the love SiSTAR!!
LOL... the peacocks are pretty, huh?! Loud, too! And, you know me! If you ever have a new baby of some sorts, count me in for helping to name the little bugger(s). You are so lucky that Edgar picked you. Our black kitty picked my husband so I only get love when I bribe her with treats, water or food. hehe. I do have a white kitty that loves me but only because no one else likes him so I am his by default. (I'm his 4th mom.) Everyone kept giving him away but I love the heck outta him... to everyone's surprise.
OMG - tears of Joy for Edgar and the little ones. What a blissful happening. I miss my cat so much 😉 it is lovely to see your fluffy family doing so well.
Love and blessings to you all.
On another subject momentarily .... where would r. Relaxo get so much delegated steem to use in the way he uses it? I am intrigued/ disgusted.
Awwwww! 😻 So sweet. Tell the lined up people to go to a shelter though, there are lots of kitties in need of homes there! Maggie was waiting at a no kill shelter for over a year before we found each other, and Yuan was at a country shelter. 💜
Hey @lyndsaybowes .. congratulations!! :D I've been meaning to ask if they'd arrived yet and in the form of a beautiful post .. here is my answer! I love animals and have raised many pups and kittens! It's so amazing when they trust you enough to share the moment .. lovely post my friend.

Mama Edgar looks so sweet and shows how she trusts your whole family. Good experience for all. Now the boys will have the kittens to people socialize.

You're right, these kittens will be 100% child ready and used to all sorts of commotion, they won't be scardy cats in their new homes!
