Dizzy Story, as promised

This is our Dizzy Cat! When she was born, she had a Siamese sister, a calico sister and a yellow tabby brother. She was so pretty, a little silver ball of fur with bits of pastel colors here and there. I didn't allow the boys to take the kittens out of the pen, because I was afraid that they would squish them and hurt them, the boys were small... So, when the kittens started walking around, then I let them put them on the floor and play with them. They didn't have names yet, but when this little silver cat would walk, she would walk in circles. We thought it was funny, so we named her Dizzy, she always had a dazed look on her face too, like she really was dizzy. Well, when they were supposed to be all playing on the lawn, jumping and teasing each other, she was by herself. So, I picked her up to check her out. It was then that I discovered, that Dizzy had no feet. Where her toes and paws are supposed to be, there is just the ends of her legs. One leg is really quite short, and so, that is why she went in circles. We all felt really, really bad.
So, we would carry her and take her with the other kittens outside. She wouldn't look in their direction, or even attempt to play with them. So, closer inspection, we found that she is also deaf and blind. Who knew that a kitten like that could have survived?
But survived she did! She learned to follow her nose. She could get from the house to the shed. She even followed her momma one time to go mousing in the fields. We had such a heart attack that day, thinking she would be lost. So, we got up early every morning to stop her from heading out to the fields.
One day, we discovered that she was going to have babies. WOW! So, we watched her and took care of her and she had 2 of the most beautiful buff colored kittens. We wondered how this was going to work out. Not to fear, the animal world, is wonderful. She would meow for her mother, who was called Moonie. Moonie would come and Diz would meow at her babies. They would come and get under her tummy. Diz would put her head in her momma's hip, next to the tummy and then Moonie would start walking. She was leading Diz, and Diz's babies would be under her so she could keep track of them! Amazing!
When her babies would be old enough to go on their own, Diz was content to stay at home and let them go with her Mother.
When Diz had her 3rd batch of kittens, her mother passed away. Dizzy's sister, Scarlet, picked up right where her mother left off. Scarlet has long since passed and right now, we have Diz's last year's baby, Sharks. He is a beautiful Silver. He takes over for her now.
I thought that she was waaaay to old to have any more babies. But I guess not.

Sorry the colors are off, but she is in the garage under a heat lamp and it makes the color funny. You can see her one leg in this photo, it is her longest leg...it looks like she has a partial foot, but if you turn it over, there is nothing. She's protecting her baby! Her eyes look pretty good in this picture, but she really can't see.

Now she knows its me, so she is spread out to get belly rubs and I took advantage and got a pic of the babies. 2 black, one is solid, the other has flecks of color in it. One tabby and one yellow tabby.

So, that is the story of our Dizzy.
