Purdies Family

The puppies are growing at an alarming rate. We have already had to increase the height of the whelping box to prevent escape! They are becoming real little characters now and are becoming increasingly vocal. They are enjoying attention from lots of visitors including small children.

Anyone interested in having one of these fantastic puppies is welcome to contact me, details on my website http://www.freewebs.com/itzapromise/

Kittens

A few days late but at last Sybil has produced 3 healthy babies. She has 2 little tortie girls and 1 little red boy. The proud father is my own stud boy Manuel. It has to be said that these are babies only a mother could love at the moment but I have no doubt that they will develop into stunning cats.

Purdie has babies! The first little girl arrived at 5.45pm yesterday, by 9pm she had 4 sisters. Then things started to slow down by 10.30 Purdie was quite relaxed and happily feeding her new arrivals- a little too relaxed as her shape indicated she was a long way from finished. I decided to take her into the garden to see if this would help get things moving again and sure enough we had another little girl at 11pm. We got her up again at 1am and this time she almost immediately produced a little boy- still in the garden! We then had a very long wait, decided a call to the vets for advice was in order but unfortunately their phones weren't diverting to the emergency service. As Purdie was not straining we decided to wait and see how things went, She popped out another boy at 4:55am. The last puppy, another girl, finally made her appearance at 6:40am. I am pleased to report that both Purdie and her 9 babies are doing well.

Sybil

It's all happening here- spring is definitely in the air, Sybil is enlarging at quite a rate. Sybil (Smoothasilk Peachesncream) is due to have kittens at the end of April. She went to stud more than she stayed at home a couple of years ago and despite frequent matings failed to conceive, of course the one day we left a door open she found her own "bit of rough" and 9 weeks later produced a lovely litter of moggy kittens.

We eventualy invested in our own beautifully bred black smoke and white boy "Witchypuss OnefortheLadies" or Manuel as he is better known to his friends, and he fortunatly met with her approval and she had a super litter to him last year. We are hoping for some equally naughty babies from them soon. The picture shows last years rascals.

Purdies having babies!!

Purdie (Carlithos Crystal) is 8 weeks pregnant and ENORMOUS. The Father to be is Lararth Sonny. Purdie who is usually a very laid back girl is becoming more and more unsettled as the due date (07.04.08) fast approaches, The whelping box is taking pride of place in the lounge ready and waiting for the patter of not so tiny paws.
