Genevieve and Osiris have new arrivals!!
Alright!!! Here we go!
3 weeks old. This is where it starts to get exciting. All of the babies have opened their eyes and their ears are almost to the top of their head. They have been practicing getting all four legs and feet underneath them to start walking properly instead of scooting around on their bellies.
They are becoming more aware of themselves and their siblings which means they are starting to play!! We will introduce some soft toys next week to let them start exploring.
We will also be introducing soft food this week so they can try to start using their baby teeth that are coming in.
Now for personalities-
Evangeline- initiates play and is still very vocal
Ella- quiet and sweet but will hold her ground when playing.
Easton- explores and initiates play
Edgar- likes to be part of the pack
Everett- still loves people
Eleanor- thinks she’s tough and tries to hiss. 😂
Elijah- continues to be a milk hog
Emerson- very outgoing and tries to explore
Within the next few weeks we will start to see personalities really emerge as they start to eat, play, and litter box train. Next Saturday will mark 4 weeks and the beginning of official reservations!!! 🙌
For those who are on the waitlist, I will be reaching out individually this week to start discussing who you have you eyes on and which kitten will be a perfect match for you.
Sansa continues to be with me to recover. She is now going into the vet 2 times a week to have hydrotherapy and a bandage change. When she is completely healed in a couple weeks she will be spayed and retired. She is now looking for her forever home.
Our 5 day old kitten morning routine.
1- say hi to momma, check her for engorgement, and give her a post natal vitamin
2- check kittens for infection in eyes, umbilical cord/belly button, and bum.
3- weigh kittens to make sure they are gaining weight. We also did a collar change because the newborn ones are now too small.
4- santize queening pen and change p*e pads
5- let the smaller kittens nurse alone for a little bit before we add the milk hogs.
6- check again in 4 hours
Sansa has finally welcomed the E litter into our Cattery!!
Waitlist is open, I can take 1-2 more families.

Another kitten update!! Venus’s kittens are 4 weeks old!! They are walking, playing, and starting to nibble on mommas soft food. All of her kittens are available. Sansa’s kittens are 2 weeks old! Eyes are fully open, their ears are continuing to move to the top of their heads, and they are practicing walking. We have decided to keep Dreamer as a future Velloso show queen.

RW GCH Housemainecoons Venus of Velloso finally had her kittens. We were expecting 3 maybe 4. The first kitten was stillborn. 😢 when going back to the X-ray to confirm how many kittens we should be looking for, we noticed that one of the necks looked damaged. Very quickly after we had Chip. He looks like he is a normal paw Blue silver Mackerel Tabby. Then Chuck joined us shortly after. He is a normal paw black mackerel tabby. Possibly a silver. Really defined markings. Venus settled and tended to her twin boys. And then SURPRISE!!! 8 hours later- Charlotte was welcomed into the cattery. She is a normal paw black torbie. Possibly silver as well. Sadly no polydactyl in this litter. All three babies are doing wonderful and getting fat already. Happy birthday to these angels on 8-9-22. #newbornkittens #mainecoonkitten #twinbrothers #firsttimemom #showkittens
Kittens are due any day now!! Waitlist is open!
