"I've got all my sisters and me" would be the theme song of Marmee's litter, as to this untrained eye they appear to be all girls, and are named Beth(dilute tortie), Minnie (tortie), Jo (brown tabby) and Amy (brown tabby with orange and white) and little Louisa May (lulu, all white). Things may change in the future but right now it is an all girl family, while Meggie has two boys, Laurie (white) and Demijohn (gray tabby). Demijohn's twin is Daisy, also a gray tabby.
In the second week of life, the kittens are in heaven, eyes opening, moving around some though staying close to the nest, and two nursing mommas who do not distinguish between kittens. All are nursed and groomed regularly by both the girls.
Visitors are watched closely, but I am handling the kittens all the time now, to get them used to their human friends.
