New Life!

WOW! I got to experience the coolest thing the other night. At least it was the coolest thing to me. I got to see kittens come into this world. It took a long time, but in the end it was cool to have this experience. There were some complications during the birth though. The first kitten was having a hard time coming out, but that makes sense since this was the mothers first time having kittens, so she wasn't even fully aware of what was going on. And its not like she is a person who you can communicate with, but she did seem to understand we were trying to help her and were going to be there to comfort her.

This was the first kitten that had a little bit of trouble. Carla actually had to help pull it out every time the cat would have a contraction. But it turned out fine.

This second black kitten I had to help pull out because it was having troubles like the first. But strangly enough the second and fourth kittens had not trouble coming out at all. It was a late night, but it was such a cool thing to be there for and to help out.

This is all of them the next morning. They are so darling! But there is no way I would let one of them live in my house with me. :) I just don't like cats all that much.
