New update, oh boy, you all are going to hate me

Spree (Mama) let's me help her feed. I have kitten formula, and a bottle, and she lets me help her feed her babies!!! I only do it for a few minutes, so her milk can build up. However, she trusts me so much to let me help her do this. Does not ignore the babies I help her feed.

Talk about an awesome Mama kitty!!!

So happy for you, Spree and the whole family.

Keep the camera handy over the next few weeks, and keep us updated.

Just remember; no feeding in the Olive Garden. not even Kittehs!

Mama had been very poorly socialized (before I took her in) and she HATED being touched and was very skittish for many months after she came to me. It was so great to see her turn into an amazing mother.

One of my favorite things in the world is the look that mama kitties get when they are surrounded by their kittens. They just look so proud and content. But who wouldn't be happy if surrounded by a pile of kittens?!
