Cozy Kitten Cattery's Private Birthing Room


Hello & Welcome!
Come on in and visit our "Cozy Little Private, Personal Birthing Room".


The private birthing room was added to our cattery in March 2002!
And just in time too!! Ms. Gracie Sue (One of our seal point himmy's.)
was due March 28th and refused to deliver until the new room was finished!

She laid in there through out the whole building process, laying in the room
as she watched the walls go up, laying in dry wall dust, paint and wall paper paste.
She didn't mind....as long as she got to be the first cat to deliver in the
new birthing room!! *** Haha ***


We rushed as fast as we could trying to complete the room before March 28th,
but there were still small things that were not 100% finished, so she waited...

Soon as my husband got home from work on the 29th, I told him he needed to
hurry up and get back there and finish putting the switch plate covers on
and hang the door, soon as he finished, Gracie walked over to the built
in birthing bed and started her work!
4 1/2 hours later...Gracie had a huge smile on her face as she nursed
her 5 new furry purry bundles of fluff!

And this is exactly why we added on this new birthing room so that Mama
kitty's would have their very own private get away to welcome their new
babies into the world.



The entire room has been built around the wants, needs and convenience of a pregnant
feline. The birthing bed is plenty big enough into to move and stretch around in
and heated to keep new babies warm as they enter the world.



A special place to take babies first picture on the day of their birth.




Smile Babies!!!



The room is plenty big enough to walk around and bring on stronger contractions
yet small enough to feel cozy & secure in their own environment.


The lighting has been arranged to aid the different stages of labor:
A very soft, subtle light for early labor helps mama relax and rest
between contractions.
A bright, intense overhead light helps aid us in case of difficult deliveries.

Shhhhh.....It's 4:00 AM and Mama needs her rest:)

Now, some more pictures of inside our private birthing room.




This is a picture from in the nursery....looking into the birthing room.



As we design a room for our cats, we try to think like a cat:)
We drop to their level and try to imagine what we would like, if
we were cats. And from reaction from all our cats, they seem
to be 1000% pleased!:)





Well....we hope you have enjoyed seeing our new private birthing room as
much as we have enjoyed making it.
