Sage gave birth last night to five little kittens! I just missed the birth, so I couldn’t get the video… it looked like the last baby came out maybe 30 minutes before I woke up! They all seem to be doing well, suckling away! I’m going to give Sage and the babies a chance to get settled and get some rest before I start weighing them and getting pictures.

I’m going to need name suggestions! I’m thinking herb-themed names, like Sage, if you have ideas! @windycityfosters said.

A better view of the kittens babies! They’re all dry, warm, and sleepy now. Sage is doing well… happy and purring. @windycityfoster said.

Finally got a chance to weigh them… all good weights! We do have a little guy, one of the black ones, that is 96g, which isn’t too much of a concern. Just about 10 grams less than his siblings.

I did check their genders (although us humans aren’t always the best at guessing correctly!). If I am correct, then the white w/ black spots and the grey/white kitten are females. The two black kittens and the tuxie are males! @windycityfosters said.
Momma Sage cuddling with her tuxie baby. They like the warm snowflake blanket rather than the cold snowflakes falling outside.❄️ @windycityfosters said.
Name reveal!! From the first picture to the last picture, we have Nutmeg, Rosemary, Basil, Parsley, and Cayenne!
