As You May Recall...

My cat, Bubbles, was being chased by Howler in the middle of the night a couple of months ago. And I called it, she got pregnant. Well, yesterday, she had her kittens. I woke up at about 8 a.m., rolled over, and saw she was lying in the crate bed I had set up for her (to have the kittens in). I thought, Good, she's using it, and just as quickly, I realized she was cleaning a freshly birthed kitten.
I ran through the house, "Kittens!! She's having her kittens!" I text my friends and called my sister. By noon, she had five little furballs. It was a beautifully disgusting occasion. I had to help birth the fourth, which became stuck in the birth canal and only its head protruded. But, that's not the gross part. She ate the placentas. It was *shivers* gross.
Anyway, here are some pictures of the beautiful new additions to our family.
