8/22にさつまの子供達が4匹生まれました。
今回は全員女の子。ブラウン×２とブラウントービー×2。全員元気に育って無事に1ヶ月をすぎました。
On Aug. 22nd, Satsuma delivered her last babies. Proud father is again Alfred. All are girls, 2 brown classic and 2 brown torbies.
They are now a month old.
もうすでに気の強さの片鱗が見えているような…
This is "Mohican". She has a red blushed line on the top of her head and also has some cream colors on her paws. As a torbie, she already looks like having a very strong character... LOL
こちらの左側がブラウンちゃん＃1。何にでも挑戦するチャレンジャー。勝手にママのご飯を食べ始めています。
This is Ms. Brown #1. She is a challenger and already eating her mom's food. Has a very strong chin and muzzle.
もうひとりのトービーちゃん。鼻筋に赤系の色が入っています。
爪とぎの上に乗っている写真は寝起きなので、ちょっと渋目の表情w
Another torbie girl. Has a cream colored blaze. She just woke up while I was taking the photos so looks a bit sleepy.

今のところ一番女の子らしい顔をしています。
Last is the brown #2.
Right now she has the very girly look. Big eyes with soft looks.

生後18日の頃のものです。
This is proud mama Satsuma and her babies when they were about 18 days old.
さつまはこれが5回目の出産。10月の終わりには6歳になりますので、この子たちを育て上げたら現役を引退します。合わせてパパのアルフレッドも現役引退予定です。アルフレッドにもいっぱいパパになってもらいました。
あとの猫生はふたりともにゆったりした時間を過ごしてもらえればと思っています。
大きい病気もせずに、元気でいてくれること、これが一番の幸せ。
子育てももう一踏ん張り！ ありがとう、さつま、ありがとうアルフレッド。
Satsuma delivered totally 5 litters. At the end of next month she is going to be 6 years old. She was one of the best mom in our cattery but it is time for her to enjoy her own life. She produced many wonderful kittens with Alfred and Jake.
Our proud queen Satsuma and Alfred are going to retire from the breeding program.
They both did not like the Cat Show but brought many happiness to us and the families who welcomed their kittens. A little more to go for Satsuma and then she can live her life 100% free with Alfred and others.
Many thanks to the proud parents. Love you guys always!
