Before I moved from north Germany to Berlin, my cat got pregnant.
I had no idea how to manage it, but I wanted to let things happen and see how it comes.
A few Weeks later, I woke up early in the morning because of the loud moaning from my cat.

I looked behind my Bed (where I build a birth-station out of a Bannana-Box haha) and couldn´t belive what i saw. There were 5 tiny kittens on the ground and my cat looked very tired but proud in my direction.
So I searched for my Mobilephone and shot a quick Snapshot of the moment.

To be honest , they looked in the beginning like wet rats to me, and not like cute baby kittens. But after a few days all changed. They got bigger, openend their eyes and started to discover the world around them and getting every day a little bit more cute.

It was very funny to watch them leaving their Box for the first time and making their first steps.

They got bigger and started do climb on all different kind of things...even on my girlfriend. It was a very cool experience to watch them grow up and learn every day new things. Everyone of them had its own personality - like they were human. They got bigger and started do climb on all different kind of things...even on my girlfriend.

After 12 Weeks of a lot of fun, it was now the time to find a new home for 4 of the 5 kittens. They were around 13 Weeks old, and grown up enough to be taken away from there mother. They learned everything they had to know for life.

It was very important for me, to give them to animal friendly people that I knew. I wanted to be sure that they live a good life with people who love them...and I wanted to have to opportunity to visit them :P
