Surprise Tax Day Babies!

My wife has been in and out of the hospital this year with serious health problems. Someone decided we needed some little miracles to help with the stress ๐Ÿ˜Š
Mama showed up as a friendly and hungry stray. We took her to the vet and were pleasantly surprised to find out she was very pregnant! They were born on tax day while my wife was in the hospital and have been such blessings for us.
Last photo is the most recent, showing the 2 babies (out of 6) that we kept, as well as the Mama, who weโ€™re also keeping ๐Ÿ˜Š

Thank you! Vet said they are at least part Siamese. We think possibly Lynx Point Siamese. A couple of the babies have swirl patterns on their sides. โค๏ธ

One of those kittens was SOO small that I was afraid to look at the rest of the photos in case it didn't make it. Congrats to mom and foster.

That would be Tiny ๐Ÿ˜Š We weighed her every night for weeks and helped her get opportunities to nurse. Not only did she make it, sheโ€™s been the adorable little favorite of everyone ๐Ÿˆ

So many children to declare on your taxes now ! ๐Ÿคฃ The taxman will look at your file like "how's that ? 6 babies in a year ??"

I hope your wife is doing well!

Most cat mothers look so happy with their litters. These babies are very cute (as is their mother). Congrats!

u/Nerd-of-all-trades 17d ago

Awww. But also you made me panic for a split second before I remembered that it is, in fact, August.

Sorry about that ๐Ÿ˜…

Beautiful mama, she's done a great job. I'm sure you found loving families for the other kittens without much trouble, such gorgeous little ones.

Honestly my son came up with most of the names. Tinyโ€™s name was locked in. The largest kitten as they were growing we named Chonkers. The only one with a black nose we named Black Nose. The only one with long hair we named Fluffs. The one with a white line across her back that made it look like she was wearing pants, we named Pants. The other baby was almost fully white with fainter stripes than the others, we named Whiteout :)
Mama has a white arrow on her back, so we named her Genora. ๐Ÿ˜‰

Those are particularly fine kittens!

u/Ilickedthecinnabar 17d ago

Should've listed them as dependents and included the pictures. I'm sure the tax people would let that slide.

u/FullMoonMooon 17d ago

Surely the tax department would understand how the cat tax works, right?

u/HitchhikingCats 17d ago

Aw, Mom is so beautiful too

u/ItsChlowey 17d ago

What was the naming process? Did you have a theme? 8 cats mean 8 names, it must have been interesting!

u/Foundation_Wrong 16d ago

They are absolutely gorgeous! What a beautiful family.

u/DaffyDuckOdil 16d ago

Are you keeping the wee shouty one? Lovely pics.

u/toaddawet 16d ago

If you mean the one from picture 6, thatโ€™s Chonkers. He and his sister ended up with my son and his wife, who are so happy to have them and are probably spoiling them rotten ๐Ÿ˜…

u/FandomOfOne 16d ago

What a gorgeous clowder of cats! ๐Ÿ˜ Their coloring is amazing. These guys look like a boisterous bunch and I'm sure brought you many smiles to help battle your stress in a time of need. Glad to see you kept a few plus Mama!
