IT'S BEEN A LONG WEEKEND...

THE WEATHER IS HOT- NEAR 85 TODAY AND WE HAVE THE AIR ON- CAN'T BELIEVE ITS THIS WARM ALREADY- AND WE KNOW HERE WHAT CAN FOLLOW THIS- SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS AND TORNADOES.

WE STILL HAVE TRACES OF COLDS AND ALLERGIES STARTING- IT IS HELPING HAVING THE AIR ON AND STAYING IN TODAY-

THE BABIES CAME LAST NIGHT AND EARLY THIS MORNING-
1ST- 8:10PM
2ND- 8:24PM
3RD- 9:01PM
4TH-9:20PM
LONG WAIT HERE
5TH- 11:29PM- THE LAST 2 WERE HIGH AND SHE WAS SO TIRED
6TH- BETWEEN 1:45 AND 2:15AM


WE HAD TACOS FOR SUPPER LAST NIGHT AND THEN FOR LUNCH WE USED THE LEFT OVERS TO MAKE TACO PIZZA- THEY LIKED IT- I CAN'T HAVE IT AT ALL-I HAD FISH LAST NIGHT AND A BAKED POTATO AT NOON TODAY- AND YOGURT

CRAIG'S BEEN DOING HIS MAD DASH TO GET HIS LAUNDRY DONE BEFORE HE GOES BACK TO CHARLESTON FOR THE WEEK-

STEVER IS TAKING A NAP- HAD TO GET HIM AND CRAIG UP EARLY THIS MORNING- WE HAD A SMALL WATER LEAK IN THE KITCHEN AND WATER IN THE FLOOR WHEN I GOT UP TO CHECK THE BABIES- JUST A 12" PUDDLE NOT FLOODED OR ANYTHING- BUT NEEDED TO GET IT TAKEN CARE OF BEFORE DAMAGE AND ACCIDENTS-

THE NEIGHBOR'S BROTHER MOWED THE LAWN AGAIN- YES, OURS IS STILL IN THE SHOP- SO THERE WAS LITTLE YARD WORK TO DO THIS WEEKEND- IT HAD BEEN 2 WEEKS AND WE COULD HAVE BALED IT-

I THINK TH ATS ABOUT ALL THE NEWS FROM HERE- REMEMBER STEVE THURSDAY WHEN HE GOES FOR HIS SURGERY-

(I WILL POST PICS AND VIDEO AS SOON AS I CAN, BUT DON'T TELL HIM)

YOU JUST WOULD NOT BELIEVE THE ABUSE I HAVE TAKEN OVER THE YEARS WITH BIRTHING BABIES, SURGERIES, DRS VISITS, DENTISTS- THIS MAN HAS SHOWN ME LITTLE MERCY- AND ALWAYS HAD SOME HORRID TALE OF MISHAPS AND PAIN- WHEN I WAS YOUNGER- I BELIEVED HIM- BUT I HAVE GOTTEN WISER- BUT I STILL REMEMBER.....PAYBACK TIME IS COMING- LOL....

I'M NOT GOING TO DO ANYTHING REALLY BAD(LIKE I SHOULD)- BUT I AM GOING TO HAVE A LITTLE FUN.......

I TOOK ALL HIS JOKES FOR YEARS- LETS SEE IF HE CAN HANDLE IT----

HAVE A GOOD WEEK!

# 5 !

Pickles is a very good mom- the last one was 2 hours after #4 and she was getting so tired- napping in between contractions- and she just wasn't pushing but just going with the pains. I had to help her a little and it came right out.

FYI- None of hers are tuxedo- black and white- they are gray and white and tigers.

They will be available for adoption the middle to the end of June- if you want one - let me know!

Pickles and her new family- 6 hers and 4 adopted

It ended up being a long night last night- I went to bed before the last one came and got up again and found it still attached to the afterbirth. Cut the cord and it was good to go.
This morning I tried to remove the adopted 4- 10 is too many for her to try to nurse alone- but she got very upset- so I will supplement all of them twice a day with the KMR to make sure they are all getting what they need. Momma is on kitten food this morning- it will make her milk very good.

UPDATE:

PICKLES HAD 6 BABIES AND THE 4 FROM THE RESCUE = 10 BABIES ALTOGETHER...
