Awhile ago, we were at the pet store uptown, and they had kittens for five dollars. We fell in love with a six toed gray kitten. We were assured by the pet store that the kitten was a girl. We already had two female cats at home and did not want to add a male to the mix. Well, the pet store was wrong, and Joy turned out to be a Max, and now we have 5 baby kittens. Here is Jewel, she is the mommy. She is very protective of the kittens, much to mine and the kids dismay. She has secreted the kittens behind the pull out drawer on my daughter's beds. I can usually wiggle under there and grab one to hold for a minute or two and then Jewel comes out to collect the kitten I have "stolen" from her. Here you can barely see the head of the kitten she has come to collect. There are 2 jet black kittens and 3 that are gray striped. As for the ratio of boys to girls. I have no clue, if the pet store couldn't get it right, I am not even going to attempt it. I will let the vet sort it out when they go in for their first check up.
This little one here, is one of the two black kittens. He/She is also the only kitten out of the litter to have 6 toes on all four paws, like Max.
This little one, is Brandon and Kasey's favorite. It is the smallest of the litter. He/She is about half the size of all the other kittens.Hopefull I will be able to post more pictures, once there eyes are open and they are moving around independently and mama isn't quite so protective.
