Marvel pups, one week later

Marvel's puppies are one week old today. They were born September 19th, one before they left the shelter that morning, and the next four during the second leg of the transportation where Marvel had a large space in the back of a SUV and plenty of time, space, and privacy to do it all herself. She continues to do it all herself. She will allow me to handle the puppies when I weigh them, but it makes her anxious, understandably, and she'd prefer that I just leave them all alone. We will be handling them a lot as they grow up, however, so everyone needs to get used to it. 



There's plenty of bed space out there but I often find them on the bare floor of the whelping box.
That's where Marvel usually lies too, she may prefer it for ease of cleanup, I don't know.

Sometimes they are together, sometimes apart.


One sleeping with their head over another one is a common position.


Storm



Elektra



Wakanda



Rogue



Thor




I changed the blankets, cleaned the floor, and then everyone was ready to eat again.







Storm's weight really jumped up today. May have caught her with a full belly.
