;D Yes, Lori..( Ladybuggs) just a little too soon to start the trip.. I'm just so happy to actually SEE the bump.. so she must have more then one.. just has to!! I have a good feeling about the other two as well.. nope I don't want the girls in the creek either.. way to cold! ;D Rachel ( owner of Beans) thinks every one should come for their baby at the same time so you can meet and we can have a little kitty gathering I doubt it will work that way as they will be ready at different times.. but never know until they arrive.

I like Rachel's idea.
May not be able to get everyone there at the same time, but with some planning, I bet we could get some of us in the same place, on the same day. Arlene, what dates are they due? Add 8 weeks to the latest due date, and have everyone start marking their calendars...

Yeah right!! DUE DATE ::)It doesn't matter what date I give them it only matters what day they decided to deliver!! I don't know if they conceived the first day or the last day of the breeding week.. and since they were bred on different days.. I think the best thing is to wait till they arrive and then we can go from there They should be with in a week of each other but it could be a 2 week difference as well.. so just have to see what we get, when they come and who picks which one from which litter!! I get dizzy thinking of all the combo's..Then we can try for a middle ground and I would love to get everyone here together.. so lets see what the moms do

Oh the idea of all us new moms and dads converging to gather our new babies sounds wonderful! Wait? If I recall, Arlene has indicated we are actually going to be their pets! ;D
Go girls go! Have lots of healthy strong furballs!.

YUP!! It would be a fun time for sure if you can all come at the same time.. .. so we will just have to see how it goes.. I have a new sighting.. I can now also see Kiki's baby bump as well So far Cappi & Kiki are showing.. it's just Her Majesty MeMe who isn't showing, but then she is a "ONE" trick pony! However the good news is she is cleaning the hair away from her nipples,, so she just might have her 'one' tucked up in there.. I'm debating on weather to take them in for ex-rays or just wait and be surprised >> There is not only the cost to consider but it is upsetting for them to go to the vet and be around the other animals, and smells.. so I don't usually like to do it.. guess I'll wait and see how I feel about it next week but for sure we have some fuzz balls in the making To quote Ali.. How many males, how many females , how many poly foots.. Oh the excitement is building Come on March hurry and get here!!

I agree Arlene. If you know they're already getting baby bumps, then maybe waiting and being surprised is better. That cuts down on the cost of the Xrays and it's probably safer for the girls and the kitties too. March, March, come on fast, time for some baby lynxes now!

It's a hard one to decide.. I want to know how many just for the fact that I know when they have finished.. if the ex-ray show 3 and only 2 come out then i know i have to induce her for the last one.. so knowing is also a safer way but it does stress them out and i have also lost litter to early delivery due to stress.. I have to keep them very calm and quiet to make sure the babies are safe. Also once they are born .. I am the only one that can touch them until they are at least 4 to 5 weeks old as the moms could kill them if they feel threatened.. When I take them in for their well baby check up at one week, I have to take the moms with me and the vet and tech have to use gloves and not get their smell on them .. I usually hold them and move them around for the vet to check ..they are just different from a normal domestic.. but that's what makes them special Yes.. the first 2 weeks of March should show us what they have tucked up in there.. I'm just so happy to see baby bumps, can't tell you how happy I am and I know a few others are as happy too

Arlene, I can see how that would a difficult decision (to Xray or not to Xray), there are advantages and disadvantages to both. You have the experience behind you, so I'm sure whatever decision you ultimately make will be the best one for all.
That is really interesting how the mom's might kill the babes if they feel threatened! Wow....
C'mon MeMe girl, we know you can fit two in there! Heehee..
I'm not sure when I've been so excited for March to arrive!

I remember when we were waiting for Emma. So much excitement. We were lucky since Kiki was already pregnant when we made contact with Arlene. Have fun!!

Oh it's not too soon.. YES!! Kiki ( Shark Fin) is also cooking up some muffins in the oven.. her baby bump looks the same as Cappi's .. as for MeMe.. I do believe she has one and maybe 2 .. but she hides it well Stinker..
