Myrrh's New Babies

Myrrh's kittens were born January 16. This is Joey's first litter and he has sired some beautiful babies. Myrrh had a real easy time with this litter. They are a nice bunch and are kind of quiet and contented babies.

They started cutting their teeth a few days ago so I have moved them into the bathroom where they will be safe outside their little box. They have solid food and a litter box close by and are learning to be interested in them.

This is a really sweet bunch of kittens, they are not fearful at all when we pick them up. They are brave about crawling in and out of their box and exploring a little.

I haven't figured out how many girls and boys I have yet. It is hard to tell when they are so tiny. When they were first born I thought only two of them were girls but as they get a little bigger more of them look like girls. I won't work on names until I get that all figured out.

Some of you know I've had some medical issues and am going to have surgery at the beginning of March. I won't be able to post as many pictures as I have in the past as photographing them is one thing that has been difficult for me. I'm having some trouble with my vision.

I will do my best to keep this updated though so those of you following their growth can enjoy them with me. I should be well back on my feet by the time they are ready for their new homes. I appreciate all of you who enjoy my kitties.

Ready To Go

Skye gifted us with 6 babies on Jan 19. 3 girls and 3 boys so we had to name them after "Friends" We have Monica, Chandler, Ross, Rachel, Pheobe and Joey. Notice the really white kitten; that is Chandler, he was 1st at everything especially purring. He loved being held even when he was tiny like this. He turned out to be a flamepoint like his uncle, the rest are lilac and blue points.

Monica in front and Joey looking over her shoulder. Monica must be part parrot, her favorite place is perched on my shoulder.

Chandler napping on the couch in his customary spot.

Ross, is a sweet big boy.

Skye is a Birman (long-haired) Siamese. Ross is the only one who has the longer hair. He and Monica are Blue. Chandler is a flamepoint. Rachel is a lilac, she is not available yet as she is a bit smaller and is too little to let go. Joey and Pheobe are not available.

Sad News

A few weeks ago we lost our precious Weezer. He died in a tragic accident and we were so sad to loose him. He loved his babies. I would bring him to visit his kittens from time to time and he always licked them and made over them . He was a real sweetie. He had become good buddies with our Himalayan, Bilbo. After he died Bilbo cried and cried for him. Bilbo now has Solomon to keep him company.

This is Joey he is from Skye and Weezer. We will keep Skye to breed with Bilbo and Joey will be our new Siamese stud. He is a blue point like his dad and a sweet kitty. We are so thankful we have a boy from Weezer that we could breed with the Siamese girls.
