This thing on the tail is caused by the deformation of the tail vertebras. Cats with this defect shouldn't ever be allowed to reproduce because their progeny can inherit it in a much more dangerous form of schistorachis.

It reminds me of this joke:

Did you hear about a cat which accidentally swallowed a yarn of wool?

She gave birth to mittens!

:D

aw they are very cute!! Can you try to talk to your sister and tell her to get the cat spayed afterwards? This world is so overpopulated my cats and dogs, and alot have to be put down, because it is to overcrowded in shelters and not enough good homes for them. Spaying cat's has gotten alot cheaper over the years. Here is a website from the ASPCA that shows a list of clinics that will do the spay/neuter for very low cost and sometimes free. Please have a look. This is a reliable website. I think you just have to put it your zip code and it will give you a list.

Thanks for the advice :) But, yes, we've already decided that we're making her get mama cat spayed as soon as the kittens are weaned.

I would turn zoophile for them :D :twisted: But I prefer adult cats to small kitties because there is much more place on their bodies to stroke than it is in the case of kittens.

Another kitten update! 15 days old now. Their eyes are all open, and they are sort of walking. They are wobbly and drunk-looking when they walk, but they can get around some. And we are going to keep at least one(probably the wacky-tail one). The rest we will find homes for. My sister already knows someone who wants one of them. I took lots of pics, with a couple of them sort of walking.

I always liked cats okay, i love our cats, but i thought of myself as more of a dog person. The kittens have got me really excited, though. I go up there many times a day to check on them, and i've been looking at the cat toys at the store and reading about kitten development.

They're adorable!

One of my co-workers has a cat who recently gave birth to four. I would have adopted one but my apt complex doesn't allow pets...oh well. :(

Thanks for the pics!
