Nini is about 1 year old and we were a bit worried about her having babies cause she's still a teenager and also her personality wasn't exactly mommy kind of cat in our minds.we thought ether she eats her kittens or she dump them somewhere.

We prepared a box for her in our living room and put a towel on it. We show her the box and tried to convince her that this is a good place for having the babies.

But she wasn't interested. instead she was looking at darker places like our closets.

One afternoon while i was taking a nap, i heard a slight moan from under the blanket.

When i put aside the blanket,i saw 4 tiny kittens on my bed!

It was so exciting and frustrating! We carefully moved them to the box in hope of remaining there but when we woke up next morning they were in my closet between my clothes.

We gave up and left the decision to her.
In the first days she had a tough time cause she didn't had that much milk and her breast got a little sore. 😿

But after a few days she got better in anyways. Her milk got alright and her confidence as a mother rose.

She even allowed us to move the kittens to the box. This way we can check on them more often.
I can't wait to see them walk and play with them. They are so tiny and vulnerable right now and it's better not to touch or grab them.
If they become devilishly playful like their mother, it's gonna be hard! 😅
I remember her running and jumping on me while i was sleeping. Such good days! Kittens are amazing!

Wow, what a gift, how many kittens. A cat can be safely called a mother-heroine.

haha yeah she's doing great!😁😻

I have two kittens, without a blessing but they are too disastrous.

But now that you have them you have to be careful if there are male cats around.

Those usually kill the kittens so the female will go into heat again, so you have to be careful.
