1 Feb 2010 - Federal Kitten Show
The kittens went to the Federal Kitten Show yesterday and we had a great time. Boshi and Mia also went with the boys but the boys were the ones that stole the show :)
Here are the results:
Kobe: 5th Best In Show (R1), Reserve Best In Show (R2), Reserve Best In Show (R3)
Sumo: 3rd Best In Show (R1), 3rd Best In Show (R2), 5th Best In Show (R3)
Levi (Sammy): 4th Best In Show (R1), 4th Best In Show (R2), 5th Best In Show (R3)
These are very good results for such young kittens. The kitten who won Best In Show in all 3 rings yesterday was a beautiful Bombay who was twice the age and size of the boys. A very deserving win for the little Bombay but I think the boys will definitely be catching up when they grow a bit bigger.
Melissa and Glen, thanks for coming along yesterday. I hope you guys had a great time cuddling your baby Levi and the others. It is always wonderful to have "parents participation" at the show.

8 Jan 2010 - kittens 6 weeks old
The kittens are 6 weeks old this week and mate they have grown so much in such a short period of time. All the kittens are now pretty much litter trained and are able to eat confidently by themselves. They have also formed good relationships with the other older cats and are truly communal. They are also interacting very well with humans and are very trusting of us. This lot is just so sooky it will be hard to let them go when the time comes :( All of them are pretty white now. I reckon little brown boy is going to be tipped and big brown boy will ended up a shaded (but light shaded). Black boy will also ended up shaded but again lightly shaded.

2 Jan 2010 - kittens 5 weeks old
The kittens are now 5 weeks old and are eating by themselves. They came to Avoca Beach with me and are now friends with Boshi. All the kittens are now between 550g to 600g which is heavy for kittens of this age. They are now learning to use the litter tray hopefully will be free to run around in the bedroom very soon.

23 Dec 2009 - kittens 4 weeks old
The boys are now 4 weeks old so there is a lot more interaction. As you can see all of them are sooky boys and love a tummy rub. The largest brown kitten and the smallest black kitten have taken interest in my solid food today. Hopefully the middle kitten will start to eat solids tomorrow. Once they start to eat solids they will grow much faster.

8 Dec 2009 - kittens 2 weeks tomorrow
The little black kitten's eyes are finally opened today. The others are still sqinting through the tiny little pin holes. Hopefully by tomorrow all their eyes will be opened. The 2 brown ones are the biggest eaters, the largest one is already 297g which is almost the weight of a 3 week old kitten. I think all the kittens are girls but I will confirm next week when I can see "everything" properly.
27 Nov 2009 - Goodbye Pebbles
Poor Pebbles struggled for a few days and finally left us today. He gasped for air for 14 hours and I had to watch him suffer. I knew it wasnt good when I had to resort to tube feeding twice... Pebbles will be buried at my new house at Lindfield so he can live on in my garden. The other 3 are still doing well.
24 Nov 2009 - 4 kittens born
4 cute little kittens were born today - 2 black and 2 brown. Kittens and mum are doing well. The smallest of the black kitten was only 50 g when born so I am keeping a close eye on him. I have named him little Pebbles as he is so tiny.
