Lacey's kittens: one week old today!

My foster cat and her kittens. No names for the kittens yet until we are sure of their sexes. They weighed in at about 7 ounces each, which is probably double their birth weights. Their eyes are just beginning to hint at starting to open. I will try to update every Friday.

Not sure what she weighs but maybe no more than six or seven pounds. At the shelter they thought she was three, but that's just a guess. She does act like she's had kittens before--no panic or excessive stress--so she may be two years old. Like I was saying, she had them during the night in a room with the door shut, and we didn't hear a thing. In the morning, three kittens had appeared and everything else was cleaned up and gone.

And she just loves them to pieces.
