They are fun when kittens. I went without kittens for about 30 years. When I was a kid, our stray, Whiskey, had 9? litters. Too many to recall. She was the neighborhood whore, a calico. She wasn't shy at all, on the neighbors front lawn in broad daylight, wherever, for all eyes to see.

We handled them within a day or so of being born, same with our stray's litters in the last 1 1/2 years, I think earlier is better if you plan to keep them. We did, her first litter was 3, one went to live elsewhere.

Unfortunately, the two we kept of the first litter were done in by cars, on different occasions, on the same day. I witnessed the second.

She made 4 more, and we kept one. Quickie (momma) is my girl, she is like a dog, she actually listens and minds, greets me at my car when I come home, prefers to be outside, and also follows me around when I'm outside. The other is the opposite.

Cool times!
