The Tale of Three Puppies

Finally! After a week of arduous waiting, Kitkat, our black Labrador, has finally given birth! The vet had to intervene, and she had to undergo a C-Section to deliver the pups! She had the operation this afternoon. I was soooo excited to go home! I was even thinking of ditching my oh-so-important class to go straight home! 'Course I didn't. Hehehe. Anyways, Tonton brought the pups home. They were in this small box. So tiny and so precious!



We fed them immediately with puppy mlik (yes there is such!). They were just sooo cute when we were feeding them! All of them are male pups by the way.



Tonton and I thought of names.... Conan, Kelso, and Kuzko. We all love those guys.

The Vet reports though, that the black pup has a weak lung and has a slim chance of surving. We've been taking turns stroking them and paying close attention to them in the past hour or so. It was so hard the last time Kitkat gave birth when we lost 5 puppies. I really pray all three survive. The first week is the most critical week, the vet said. So we're really hoping they all will grow into strong adult labs someday.

We will name these precious little buggers at the end of their first week. Just so we won't jinx anything.



They've been crying out a few times, which the vet said is pretty ok and normal.

Mama was amazed at how excited we all are! It's like we have new babies (we all love kids) to take care of and love. Well... we do in fact.
