Sleep tight

It is with immense sadness that I let you know our beloved Ice (Lelaurier Htwoo) died in the early hours of Sunday morning. Ice had for some unknown reason, other than being a Dally, decided to eat some of the wadding from his bed. On Saturday afternoon he underwent a four and a half hour operation to remove the wadding and repair the subsquent intussusception. He came through the surgery fine and was up on his feet by 10pm but unfortunately never made it to the next morning. He would have been 6 in August.
Ice sired our most recent litter of puppies and was the calmest Dally we had ever known. As a puppy we had no intention of keeping him but he just wormed his way in, with the whole attitude of 'if my sister stays I stay' and so he did.
Both us and the dogs are lost at the moment.

Catch up

It's been a busy and stressful couple of weeks here. Abbie succumbed to acute septic mastitis and despite surgery to remove the dead and infected tissue the infection has spread, she is extremely unwell and as an added insult developed a uterine infection as well, she is too poorly to be spayed so we are nursing her round the clock and keeping everything crossed she can fight it off.
Her kittens have been taken under Disney's (our American Curl) wing and she is now looking after a troop of ten!
Ivy had her babies on the 8th June, 4 gorgeous boys and a striking girl all curly except one boy. They are doing well and just starting to open their eyes.
Candy had 3 babies yesterday, all curly and details will be posted about them in a day or two. Honey is due babies today so we are just waiting for those to appear!

Sad news

It is with a heavy heart I share the news that Abbie's little brown spotty girl died on Friday.
Breeding isn't as easy as it may seem to some people, your heart gets broken time and time again.
