Moon-min has landed...

Bella delivered a little boy yesterday afternoon.  I thought there were more, possibly retained but after a trip to the vet and no more arrivals today it seems her little Moon-min is all on his own.  Although rather than being lonely - he loves the freedom to choose where he gets his milk.  No rugby scrums like last time to worry about.

I have a feeling little Moon-min will end up getting too attached to want to leave us... (or should that be the other way around?)

One day old - Moon-min baby

Casper (White Spot) and Mimi (Sophie)

Mimi came for a holiday for a week and soon settled in with Bella and Casper.  They had a lovely time racing around and then snuggling up together.

 The following pictures are update pictures of Siri & Ozzie (gorgeous!)

Siri (Lucy) and Ozzie (Oscar)

Ozzie Feb 2012

Bella went for a visit to see Chalky Charlie again as Florence was planning on having him neutered. She has been in season pretty much continually (with a week or two reprieve every 3 weeks) since the kittens were 9 weeks old.  So although I wasn't planning to have her mated until Autumn 2012 she may be having babies for Easter time.  Her first litter was 6 which was quite a lot for her to cope with especially as only 5 teats were functional.  Lets hope the next litter is easier for her manage.   my parents hope she will have a seal point as their 'Rufus' died and now they are ready for another.  I am hoping to keep a seal or chocolate point girl to replace 'Maiya' who was lost to the road as she was just about to turn a year old.  Then the family would be complete and Bella will be spade.  

Update at 20 weeks

This is the latest photo we have received of Ozzie and Siri (aka Oscar and Lucy).

They have definitely made themselves part of the family!

This is Caspar (aka Oliver or Whitespot)

He has developed a lovely personality ...

...and is full of mischief!

Enjoying a game with Becky's cat, Roxy.

Update on Oscar & Lucy

These two have also settled in well and have new names -

Osiris (Ozzy) - not far off Oscar! - and Sirikit (Siri).

Update on Bruno

Bruno has settled in well to his new home and is enjoying the company of the other family pets.

Bruno has now gone to his new home...

Photobook of all the kitten pictures is below. click the full screen tab for the best view.

The kittens have all developed their own personalities.  Toby aka Alfie is chatty and the biggest of the bunch.  Oscar the seal point has a softer nature and I think will be a lap cat - but also loves to play.  Lucy the chocolate pointed girl is the most chatty and I hope to get a video of her having a conversation as she is very funny.  She likes to give the boys as good as she gets when playing rough and tumble.  WhiteSpot aka Ollie knows he is staying or at least is acting like he is top cat - despite being the smallest boy.  For anyone thinking 'White Spot' what a weird name - he had a little white spot on his nose when he was born.  Being a birth mark I didn't think anyone would want him so I decided to keep him.  He has grown up as a handsome boy and the birthmark has vanished!  Trouble is the name has stuck... although we keep calling him Ollie in an attempt to give him a nicer sounding name. 

Bruno has gone to his new home - hoping he arrived safely due to a cat basket malfunction.  Will post any updates of Sophie and Bruno as and when I get any. 

Sophie has now gone to her new home...

Sophie has now gone to her forever home.  Bella sat on top of the travel cat box - wondering what was going on, but she seems to be okay at the moment.

All the kittens are now reserved subject to collection.  Any kittens that become available (should the new owner's circumstances change) will be listed on the blog.  Please come and take a look over the next three weeks.
