Kiwi Custard x Bayo Flora - Keepers

So I wasn't able to keep up with the weekly blog post updates oops... Six kittens in a global pandemic plus a house move really keep you busy! However, I thought I'd do a quick post to introduce my four lovely keepers. Obviously as I only have two does in the litter, it was pretty clear that I would be keeping them but it took a while to choose my boys. Naming them was also really hard! Anyway, I won't waffle on...let's crack on with the introductions!

Kiwi Custard x Bayo Flora - Week Three

Hello, I am back again! Time for the week three update! I really need to get more organised with these posts... Obviously I don't need to do them but I just like them as it gives me an easy way to look back at the litter. Of course, as it's my first litter it's extra exciting so I want to document as much as I can. It also gives me a baseline for what to expect with future litters. 

I was really looking forward to week three as I'd seen many breeders say it was one of their favourite weeks. Having now been through it, I can certainly see why!

Kiwi Custard x Bayo Flora - Week Two

Good evening! Grab a drink and get comfy for the next weekly round up of Flora and Custard's litter! I'm a bit late writing this so the babies have changed a lot since these photos were taken and it makes me both sad and happy at the same time. They're growing so quick but we're at a really nice stage right now so it's great fun. 

Let's crack on shall we? So as a reminder, at the end of week one the kittens pigment had started coming through and they were starting to get some fuzz!

Kiwi Custard x Bayo Flora - Week One

Hi everyone! How are we all? Global pandemic aside of course... Typical that my first litter arrived as we went into quarantine. Positive side is that I'm now home 24/7 so I get to spend plenty of time with these little ones! I thought I'd do a little weekly round up of the litter as it's my first and I've got the spare time. Not sure whether I'll continue for future litters but we shall see!

So, start of the week (quite literally as it was a Monday), it was the 23rd March and I'd woken up to Flora looking rather large still with no babies. This was also one of my first days working from home thanks to the virus and as I'd set up a camera to watch Flora, I sat at my desk with my phone on the left so I could see what she was up to. She started moving around a bit and rearranging her nest about 11am so I got excited but then decided nothing was happening. I came down for lunch an hour and a bit later and said to my mum "I still don't think Flora's had her babies" then went to check on her and quickly came running back shouting "I lied, I can see two pink things!". I couldn't believe the time had finally arrived! Flora seemed okay so I left her alone and checked again an hour later.
