The House is Filled With The Pitter Patter of Tiny Paws Once Again.

Tia Marie did all the work, and Mr. Peanut get’s to claim the glory.  Isn’t that how it’s always been.  The proud parents are so happy, Tia a little over protective, and Peanut, curious as a cat.

 

Tia stayed true to form, and delivered 5 beautiful baby boys today.  Her labor started early, around 9:00 AM.  The first little one to grace our presence was at 12:48 PM.  A tiny little boy, light tan or light red and cream weighing in at 3.1 onz. The next was 3.3 onz. and white with a tiny bit of color on its back.  Then came a beautiful red, weighing a whopping 4.1 onz.  Then another white one at 3.8 onz., and last but not least a mostly red one at 3.6 onz.  The last one being delivered around 5:30 PM.

Tia struggled just a little, and we had to help her clean a few of the babies, but over all everything worked out just fine.  Tired and ready for rest she laid down with her little ones, but would not take her eyes off them.

After everything settled down, we had to change the bedding.  Tia was not real happy with us moving her and her babies around, but accepted things as long as one of us sat with her comforting and petting her.

They all have such cute little red heads and paws.

I’ll post more pictures later, so everyone can se them grow.
