Cookie is having kittens!!!

In case you do not know, Cookie (we call her Cookie Butt) is a little kitten that was born here in our yard last spring, which makes her about a year old.  She has a big round belly that is growing every day.  According to an article we read, cats can go into heat at around 4 months.   So it did not take us long to figure out that Cookie is having kittens.  I am a little sad about this because she is just too little to have kittens in my opinion.  She is still a kitten herself.

We read that the gestational period for a cat is on average 63 days. 

Here are a few pictures of the mom-to-be and another blog post.

Now that we know she is having kittens, we cannot wait for them to get here.
