Two day old Kittens

Though you have to squint your eyes and peer into the screen to see them.

My Dad always said where there is light there is a photograph.  He forgot to mention  – unless the photograph will not SIT STILL.

Four are a light salmon gold. Two are  as marmalade coloured as Marmalade.

I think. I have not touched them of course. Best not to at this stage.

I was taking their photographs without permission when Mama Marmalade came home. After giving me The Look, she settled back down with her babies.

After that they all ended up looking like a great furry mess.

Did you see that? I got the EYE again.  The Marmalade Look.

Off you go –  her eye said.

She is being a very good wee Mama.  And you can use these photographs to prove that there are female ginger cats.

I hope you have a lovely day.

Today I am getting the baby pig house ready for Tane Mahuta. And then tonight Jake and I are driving up to collect him.

Life is getting exciting.

Love your friend on the farmy

  1. Aw, so cute! 😀 I know people say that about certain cats, but then we had Theo, and it would seem he was the world’s only male calico. What’s that all about? So glad Marmie and family are doing well.

  2. Oh, oh, oh – they are absolutely gorgeous! Female ginger cats are quite unusual aren’t they? We had one we thought was a tom and called him Marmalade too but it turned out to be a girl (she too had kittnes but just 2) and we changed her name to Honey. Drive safely tonight – no sleep for you then 😦

  3. If kittens can be identical twins there seems to be a pair in the picture ?! I haven’t wished you a proper welcome home Miss C ……loved going to the wedding with you and visiting NZ. Thank you for including us, as we are a pretty large group !!! Safe travels to fetch the hubster for sweet Tima .

  4. Awww. They are just beautiful, and yes she is giving you the EYE! What a good mama. Someone just said to me recently that there are no female ginger cats so I am happy to have proof. It will be interesting to see if any of Marmalade’s kittens are girls, too. Thanks for the great pics. Looking forward to seeing Tane, but do be careful driving.

  6. Ha ha ha! The LOOK is what I get from Daisy the first couple of weeks I stalk her trying to get photos of her babies each year! I’m glad you were sneaky and got a few shots! You definitely have “paparazzi” tendencies… and don’t we all with these lovely critters? Have a wonderful day – such excitement on the farmy!

  11. Celi, you are turning me into a cat lady! These photos make all the time care and love given by you and Boo to Marmalade, worth the effort. May the little kitties bring much happiness to all. Safe travel tonight as you go to collect Lover boy. You better have a gentle word in his ear on the way home! 😉

  13. Yes! Ditto to everyone’s comments. They are really sweet–such tiny tiny furry faces. Just amazing little creatures.Even more amazing you were all ready for them with a whelping box in the back of your closet for Marmalade’s comfort and privacy! Can’t wait for Boo to get a look-see.
    And Good luck tonight, Celi. I hope the collection goes smoothly. O’Hare is such a sprawling place and plenty confusing. I hope the boar behaves himself and sleeps all the way home.
