Moving into a our new place recently, my husband and I saw what looks like a fairly emaciated turkish angora cat lurking around our home.
After watching her for a while, we realized that over a week when we were in short absence from our home, she had given birth to a small litter of kittens. We recently found them lurking in a rather long gap underneath our driveway. We'll post those photos soon.
If you watch her walk away (video coming soon), her tummy drags, showing how obvious it is that she recently gave birth. Her kittens, all white, only wiggle, and have not opened their eyes yet. She has the typical two-colored eyes (facing the camera, left is green, right is blue).
In the past week, however, we discovered another Turkish Angora momma cat. She is hiding under our shrubs and has a few multi-colored kittens who are starting to move about. Her eyes are opposite. The left is blue, the right is green.
At first, we freaked out. We already have two cats: a domesticated Turkish Angora and a Maine Coon. Our furry menagerie is quite full. That, and I don't know if our landlord would allow us to keep more than two. But for some reason - probably because these wonderful little critters saw us, saw our cats, and thought "hey, they look nice" the outside of our home has become home to a small colony of cats. Oh boy, this is going to get interesting.
