It was a good day to be born

It was a rainy day, the raindrops hammering the windows and dark clouds moving on the sky. But inside it did not matter, and Mothership Kira decided it was a perfect moment to start unloading her cargo.

7:57pm first of the babies was born. The kitten is like a miniature copy of our wonderful male Warre <3 He/She already got a nickname "MiniMe".

"MiniMe"

Litter of 4

10:20pm,11:13pm was born the two Siamese variants. Both very strong and the later born has really good sucking powers and does not wanna give up the tittie ;)
At 00:09am on the 18th, just after the rain was beginning to seize the fourth kitten was born.

Kira is doing well, and has eaten a lot. Her contractions are over, but the xray shown 5 kittens, so we are now waiting to see is there one left as "late delivery" or was the fifth just a shadow. I think we will know more later on today.

Later on, we will be adding a live camerafeed from the nest, but that has to wait now for few days as there is no proper internet connection and we want to give Kira some peace and quiet time to learn to be a mommy.

This has been a very emotional 12h for us, as many of you know things did not work out so well during our last try and I was about to give it all up. So when first baby was born alive and kicking, I cried from happiness.
