After a few days

The kittens are three days old today and they are all strong and seemingly they will all make it. Half of them are big and strong and the other half tiny but just as strong-willed and full of life, just smaller. We make sure they get enough to eat and give Älva extra yummy food and we are confident it will help.

This time, we chose a fairy theme since our daughter started convincing us perhaps half a year ago... It suits this litter well, as Älva is Swedish for fairy. The names are also in Swedish out of request. Let us just hope that 'Silverdagg' will turn out to be silver (this kitten was specifically named the first day, so I did not dare change it...) ;)

The kittens had very low birth weights: 57-94 grams, but this does not signify small cats as adults. Älva got a few of the low weight last time as well, amongst others Desperado who turned out quite nicely sized and gorgeous.

The website is at last updated with pictures, names and information. Silver or not? Time will tell...
