 Finally you get to see Mercy, the mother of most of my cats. I was finally able to get her fixed, so this is the last litter! She is a very sweet girl and has been a very good mom. Well, maybe a bit too indulgent -- the kittens are nearly four months old as near as I can figure, and she still lets them nurse! Six of the seven are at it here.

I really didn't like the shadows on this image, but the arrangement of the kittens was just so precious I couldn't pass it up :-)

I guess they were in the womb that way so they've just stayed. How adorable.

I like the shadows and streaks of bright light, without it the photo would lose it's seemingly artistic egde.

I actually like the shadows and the stripes of light in this shot. Big kitties and sweet indulgent Mom.
