Yes, mama's name is Margie!
Over the next few hours, Mrs. Stern revealed the precious video of the birthing process, complete with the first few breathes taken by the babies! At this moment, there are only two that have been born, but there might be more!

In a second video, Beth is concerned one of the babies might not be breathing and cheers on the mother who is licking the little one to spark the baby's ability to start. "Is the baby breathing? 😱✊ Go, Mama!" Beth captioned the clip. "Miracles right before our eyes," she added.
Now, as you can imagine, the videos are a little graphic...but, you can't take your eyes off of the miracle of life!
"Number 2 just arrived..she’s licking the sac off. She’s doing everything right...Going to be a long night. Keeping it quiet for mama….💕 B/W baby and tabby so far," Stern continued. Adding, "Still working on the tabby!!!!"

Another added, "The instincts that kick in are incredible. She must be so exhausted already and this is only number 2."
BTW -- It's unclear if the King Of All Media is present for the births. But, we are guessing since it's Saturday he might have a front-row seat!
If you aren't a huge Stern fan, you should know his family has been in the cat rescue business for a very long time. Back in 2019, Howard and Beth partnered with the North Shore Animal League to launch a feline adoption center. The 'Bianca’s Furry Friends Feline Adoption Center' -- named after one of their dogs -- is a state-of-the-art facility that is cage-free and allows cats and kittens to roam in "enriched and comfortable, low-stress environments."
Congratulations, Mama!

The point is to allow foster cats to be socialized to have their personalities shine through, unlike many shelters where they are caged, stressed, afraid, and less likely to attract adopters. It's unclear if Margie is from the facility.
Incredibly, according to reports, upwards of 1,000 have passed through the Stern's home. They have fostered over 20 cats inside their home at one time, in addition to their five full-time pets.
