Birthday!

Well the babies came early, four days early to be precise, so Mum and Dad were taken a bit by surprise. In the early hours of Sunday 2nd March I started to puff and pant.

I kept them waiting all day! Dad kept saying "Do you think she's having us on?" Hah hah.

At 8.50pm the first one was ready to make an appearance. It was a little scary because she came feet first. Mum said it looked a bit freaky, but we all stayed calm. We named the first pup "mouse".

The babies followed at fairly regular intervals after that until just after midnight. I was up to nine at that point. I think we were all a bit surprised!

We settled down, quite happy that we had down a good job. Mum stayed with me during the night. I was a little restless and at 3am felt a bit odd. All of a sudden there was another pup! Mum was a bit worried because last time I had Pups I gave birth to one in the middle of the night and it wasn't alive.

But Mum worked really hard and the puppy started breathing with no problems.

So here they are.........
