Spooky, Spooky, Spooky. It's Gross. Stop!

I thought Spooky was in heat a couple of weeks ago and got pregnant because her belly was hard and boy cats were a'plenty.

I was wrong.

She's been coupling with cats since 8 this morning! It's pretty disgusting and painful on the ears. I woke up to her and Osho at it and watched in horrified fascination. Now there are three toms in the backyard stalking her. She lays down in the grass and stares at them. When they finally get up the nerve to approach her, she slaps them. Osho keeps trying to chase them off. Heck, I even tried to chase them away! Those toms are determined.

Devlin's quite excited by it all and is also following Spooky around. She wants to know what is going on, I think. I'm never going to have another litter until I'm breeding in my 50s. Then I can send my queen to a stud and not have to hear all this!

I think it's weird that she got pregnant the first time and there was no sign of her being in heat or coupling.

I've been so sick this winter and I'm tired of my sinuses going crazy. About to take a shower and get it all out of my head. It'll be gross, but it's a gross day.
