Our New Babies

Yesterday after seeing Mama Kitty we thought the kittens had been born, but we had not seen any place that she seemed to want to go to, nor did she want to stay in the barn when we were ready to lock it up. That gave us a clue they were not in the barn because in the past she would want to stay in the barn if the babies were there.
Well, this morning when Mel was at the barn, here came Mama Kitty with the babies one at a time and put them on a shelf under the cabinet. She had put her kittens in the same location this past spring.
We have 1 black and white, 1 solid black and 1 dark gray, almost black. 3 more to add to our "barn crew of cats" which totals 8 now.
The yellow container where she put the kittens had nails so I put an old shirt on top of the nails to make it soft for the babies.
Late this afternoon I went to the barn to check on them and she had moved them to a feed sack. I don't understand her reasoning, but I'm sure it seems to work for her!
