Ti'ger is the oldest out of the three cats; she has a moody personality but she is still my favourite. Mum and I share Lula and Baby, but Ti'ger is mine.
Lula is rather timid, but once she gets to know you she can be very loving
As for Baby! She's completely unafraid, she loves everyone and expects everyone to love her! At the moment in cat years she's a teenager and doesn't Mum know it!
WOW!!! The kittens are finally here and I am allowed to name them. I wanted their names to be chocolates, so I thought of all the different chocolate bars I know. The first kitten born is my favourite and one of my favourite chocolate bars is Galaxy-it only seems right that this one should be named that! The second kitten I have decided to name Kit-Kat, I don't know why I chose this name. I suppose because it's a chocolate bar and it will grow into a cat! not least there's Crunchy. I simply named it that because he has a crunch in his tail! But that dosen't mean that he's any less cuter than the others. They haven't got their eyes open yet, so it means they get around by bumping into each other and even climbing over! Lula is a lovely mum and is fine with us picking them up. Sometimes she dosen't know that there's one underneath her and rolls on it-I have to rescue him!
Each day I weigh them and they are steadily putting on 10 grams or more every time. Kit-Kat has just started opening his eyes and I can't wait for all of theirs to open! The loudest out of the three is definately Crunchy- he is also the heaviest! He's got to be a boy! Lula is now having some timedownstairs with the others, but whenever a kitten cries she up at the top of the stairs waiting to be let in! Baby hisses at Lula, Ti'ger hisses at Baby and Karbul whacks all of them; Though they all take turns at hitting each other

Finally!!! they have now all got their eyes open and they look adorable as ever! Galaxy has a bit of a sticky eye, but mum and I bathe it every hour and it has opened. They are also starting to find their feet, Crunchy has already made an attempt to escape from their box. Also their personalities are starting to develop. Galaxy is the most loving, Crunchy the biggest, loudest and the explorer. Kit- Kat seems the most content, he just wants to sleep. Lula is leaving them for up to an hour or more, she definately wants company and as she and the babies are in Mum's bedroom Mum is waking up to find Lula deserting her little ones to curl up for a little 'me time' on Mum's bed!
Crunchy 18 days old

Gosh! What a difference a few days makes. Galaxy is the first out of the kittening box. They are getting so individual. Galaxy is the explorer, Kit Kat the easy going; just wants loving and Crunchy, the playful- chasing his tail and chewing everything he can catch, and can't. They are all still unsteady on their feet and it's so funny to see Galaxy running along the bedroom floorboards and looking like he's skating, legs going all over the place. Three small kittens can move very fast; and it often seems to be more than just three tearing around! Galaxy likes doors, getting through them into another area to explore. We have started trying to wean them today, Mum mixed baby rice with special kitten food and kind off smeared it round their faces! They didn't seem to mind or be interested in the food but Lula was and happily licked it off them as fast as we put it on. Mum says we have to do this about six times or more a day until they get the idea
Crunchy and Galaxy explore the sofa
Whenever I come into the bedroom they rush to my feet! Mum and I sit on the floor and play with them, but I think that they are way more interested in hiding in shoes and hanging from our legs! Once they have had their mad 10minutes they just flop down and go to sleep. Here is a picture of Crunchy snoozing on my lap
Sweet dreams
