Congratulations Smudge – kits 6 weeks old today

Smudge is making a lovely job of being a mummy and her kits are growing up fast. Here they are on their 6 weeks birthday:

Interesting, having very recently had Cassie and her kits, to see the differences. Both very good mums and happy healthy kittens. Cass was always snuggled with her kits and they took their time growing up. At gone 4 weeks they still hadn’t climbed out their flymo box, and 6 weeks were only just getting around to eating solids. This gang had their eyes open at less than a week old and young Spice, despite being the last born of the litter, was scrambling out of the basket at 3 weeks. They’re 6 weeks old today and have been tucking in to solid food for some time now. Oddly enough, it was little Smidgin, the only girl of the gang and the one who I was so worried about with not putting weight on in the early days who was way ahead of the others in starting on solids.

Sadly they’ve missed out on being headline news just recently with all the angst about Daisy and then Mog. Here are a few of the highlights of recent weeks.
