It was a full time job for a couple of weeks! Then they went off to their homes!

She was an excellent mother to a previous batch of 3. I spent some time trying to get her to let the 2 littlest ones nurse while I took care of the others, but she was not having any of that either, so I finally got disgusted and banished her to the porch. I was so mad at her. I am a medical transcriptionist and work from home, so I would sit here in my office working away with 7 kittens in my lap all nestled in the turned up bottom of a large sweatshirt I would wear. I would buy canned cat food by the cases when they got a little bigger because that seemed to be what worked best mixed with some milk replacer. With the 2 littlest, I had to dip my fingers into that mixture and they would then lick it off. As they grew, there wasn't enough room for all of them in the sweatshirt so they had to take turns with the 2 littlest getting the most lap time. Everyone would climb up my pant legs in order to get to my lap. The day Zorro bit through my headphone cord while in my lap was the day they were banished from the office. I then had a house full of unsupervised maniacs wreaking havoc while I stayed in my office and worked. What a time that was. I sure hope I do not have to repeat that little adventure. All 7 survived and thrived and when Spring finally came they were all banished to the porch and that is the day their Mama packed her bags and went a half mile down the road to live at the neighbors house. I swear this is all true. I could go on and on about all the crazy things that happened during this time, but I will stop here.
