Happy Coco

I'm sitting in my living room with our cat Coco, she won't let me leave her. I'm with her since 2.00am. At 3.10am the first kitten was born. I can hear it squeeling now and I know poor mammy cat has another one on the way.
It's 3.27am and Coco is pushing again. I can see paws. Oh wow, it's here. Coco is so good she is taking care of it, I can see it moving and now it's squeeling, it's 3.30am.
It's 3.37am and the contractions seem to be starting again. Coco is still cleaning the first two, they are feeding and she is delivering another (I think). Nothing else yet and it's now 4.03am. I'm getting worried.
Coco is sleeping now, it's 4.07am. Kitten number 3 just arrived at 4.14am. I had to encourage Coco to take care of it. I hope it's ok.
4.16am it's looking good. Ye I can see it moving. Releaf. The poor cat: one of the kittens is in her ear while the other 2 are feeding. 4.46am and another one is here, I can't see it yet, it's getting crouded in there. Ye its moving. Ok. That's 4 kittens so far.
I need to get some rest and my poor cat is napping. If there is any more I will let you know. Good night (or morning).
