Kittehs.... I haz.

This is Suki pre-babies... 
As she was contracting, she still rolled over on her back to let me scratch her belly. She's so sweet!
This is Grampa. "He" went looking for teats right away and was at a loss. "He" cruised up and down her body repeatedly then decided to dive between her legs. He grunted and complained the whole time. Then "he" turned out to be a "she". But her name stuck. :)

This is Hook. This is before he's fully cleaned and the rest of the hooked white portion is visible. It was very dark in there for Suki's peace. Sorry about the quality. 
Grampa!
This is Scruff. She has a pale gray face. She's a little bit passive.
Teeny tiny Bedlam, curled in my palm and sleeping. This is when I knew she wasn't okay yesterday. She'd been sleeping away from the other kittens. I picked her up and she was weak. That she easily curled into a sleeping ball on my palm told me all was not well. She's a squeaker, and made no noise.
I'll find out today if I get to have the kits back. I needed to take them to the Humane Society vet since Bedlam was in a bad way. They were to be dropper feeding her all night long to gain her strength. :( I'll let you know how things go.

Suki is one of the most amazing cats I've ever met. I hope Bedlam is okay.

I hope Bedlam is okay. They're adorable.

I really, really hope that Bedlam is ok!!

I was going to say that Grampa could still be a boy (we thought Chaos was a girl until he was about 9 weeks old and it suddenly became clear he was a boy), but I see Grampa's got some calico action going on, so definitely a girl!

Oh, I hope Bedlam will be okay. This is what happened to one of our Kitty's kitties. Sad. Let us know.
