Wondering about my lack of chatter?

[AnaSantos]

Hi ladies, wondering about my lack of chatter? Well, the Holidays were crazy just like for most of you.
As you probably don't know, in addition to being a full-time teacher and being crazy about digital art, I have a cattery of Canadian Sphynx cats ... you already know Benny right? My two females are pregnant and I'm expecting, if all goes well, 10 babies. Oh my god, too many babies!! I have been sleeping for the last 3 weeks with the most advanced pregnancy in a separate room, on an inflatable mattress on the floor. It has been hard, despite going to bed around 10 pm, systematically waking me up at 1 am, playing for 40 minutes and waking up again at 3 am for the same thing, playing for two more hours and only then can I go back to sleep until 7am. I teach all day from 8 am to 4 pm. You might not believe it, I look like a zombie all day long, LoL. So wish me luck because I think this 6 first babies are going to born this weekend and I probably will be 8 to 36 hours awake ... scary!!

Love you and the O and I promise I will be on tracks soon.

Oh, my goodness, Ana - you certainly have had your hands full!!! You'll have so much fun with those babies, though. I can't even imagine having 10 kitties at the same time, though. I do remember when you got Bennie. I can't wait to see pictures!!

Oh, Cheryl, thank you!! I will post some new about this, for course. I´m so exhausted but at the same time so excited about all this. Today I´m going to try something new about our night, Phoebe and me, and I hope it all go well!!

Good luck, Ana - I don't know how you're functioning with such disturbed sleep. Hope tonight goes better for you and the kitties. Sending hugs

Wow, Ana! I am a retired teacher so I know how demanding that can be. Then you have your expectant cats! Try to rest when you can. I know that’s hard to do. Keep us posted on your fur babies! (((Hugs)))

 

[Betty Jo]

Oh my goodness, Ana, you must be exhausted. Enjoy your new babies and I can't wait for you to share photos; after you've rested, of course!!

 

[pachimac]

OH wow!!!! You have a lot on your plate! Take care of you and we can't wait to see the babies!

 

[VickiStegall]

oh gosh that is a lot! Good luck!!! I hope you get some rest soon

 

[LSlycord]

@AnaSantos I am sure you are exhausted. Good luck getting any rest until all of those kitties grow up a bit!

Oh my gosh Ana @AnaSantos , 10 kittens !!! I would love that LOL ... but the stress doesn't get any less once they start exploring. I think you still enjoy the time and it will certainly be difficult for you to give them away one day ...

 

[Jeannette]

O wow, so much to do. But heee, 10 little kittens ........, if only I lived closer to you, I'd come over and help!

 

[AnaSantos]

When our three puppies were born we debated for weeks about which one we would keep and we couldn't agree so we ended up keeping them all! hahahaa!!!

 

[Jeannette]
