Welcome Callie and Her Timey-Wimeys!
Greetings, Kitten Academicians!
Say hello to our newest momcat whom DJ has named Calendar, or Callie for short!
Callie arrived to us on December 2nd, on a transport via DAWS all the way from Georgia. We aren't exactly sure about her age but we guess she's about one year old. She's super loving, playful and enjoys calm lap time, too. One of the more unique things about Callie is her waggly, bobbed tail but we'll go into more detail on that topic a little later!
On December 5th, we took her in to our vet, AristoKatz, for an x-ray with Dr. Katz. The x-ray confirmed she was pregnant with 5, maybe 6 kittens, and due anytime! The x-ray also showed her tail but we were unable to definitively conclude whether it was genetic or an old injury at that time. Turns out it's genetic! And we know this because...
A couple days later, on December 7th, Callie welcomed six healthy kittens to the Academy! Of the six kittens, two have bobbed tails which tells us that her bobbed tail is, in fact, genetic! It hasn't been all that long yet but so far she's proven to be a great mom, very attentive and quick with the cleanup duties.
For now, we’re pretty sure January and Holiday are the only girls but it can be hard to tell this early.*
*Edit: This time we’re almost certain, Holiday is the only girl in this class!
Finally, here are some photos of the Timey-Wimeys for you to enjoy!
