Growing up


Well Marnie's babies are now two weeks old and doing well, they are just starting to move around a bit now and have had their eyes open for the last week. I am very pleased with them so far and love the rich shade of the Chocolate girl.

Eddie had his last kitten show, he had two finals but the points were too low to count so he has finished outside of the top 20, still he should be 2nd BOB in the region and has done incredibly well. He already thinks he is an adult and has had to be separated from our young girls!! He'll be given time to grow up now and will then come back out as an adult. I think I will DNA test him for Cinnamon at some point, if he does carry we may use him for a couple of litters, if not then we won't and he will purely be a show boy and our pet.

After much dithering about Honey I have decided to have one last litter with her, she is 6 and a half now but has only had 3 litters and still looks as if she is 2. She has been training up young Rusty in the ways of the world in true Honey style!! After such a well behaved litter on my part with Marnie a little bit of rebel just had to come out and so Colourpoint to Cinnamon Bicolour just had to be done ;-) LOL Hopefully some of Honey's gorgeous coat and type will help add a bit more to our Cinnamon programme.

We still need homes for our big babies and a couple of young adults, there will be quite a few retirees this year, some will stay and others will be looking for homes that will suit their needs.

New arrivals!


Marnie finally went pop on Thursday 2nd April at the very respectable time of 9.55am, she had four kittens but sadly the very large Blue boy needed a lot of helping getting out and had died, I spent a long time trying to get him going again but to no avail. However, she has three plump little monsters, two Black boys and a gorgeous Chocolate girl and all three are piling on the weight well. Not quite the Black girl I had asked her for but lovely all the same.

We should have a couple of new additions next week, more news once they are here!
