Well  it’s hard to believe 2021 is already 1/2 over!  We have been back in the show ring.

Earlier in June we attended the Chehalis Cat Show, which was the very first show that allowed spectators!  It was so, so nice to see some cat fancy faces I have not seen in over a year.

Still waiting for the official show report to come out and hoping we have another Champion in our midst.

I know many of you are hoping for kittens.  More on that later 🙂

Stay cool!  Lets hope this June heatwave isn’t what is to come for the rest of summer!

I hope you all had a wonderful holiday!

I spent my Christmas morning with Kumiko birthing 6 kittens.   She gave me quite a shock with a very high white kitten!  Wow.

3 blues – 2 look to be solid mackerel, and 1 is blue with quite a bit of white.
1 very high white with black spot on the head
2 that are black with white (one has white around the neck).  Most likely ticked.

2 days old an everyone is making little gains.   Rocket (aka Kumiko) has settled in to being a mom pretty well.  We battled over birthing areas, and she won….she is parked in a giant wire dog crate in the living room lol  Crazy girl, apparently did NOT want peace and quiet!

I try not to handle them much, other than to weigh them.  If I do snap some photos, they best place to see those will be instagram or facebook.

Well, it’s Christmas eve and Kumiko is still holding on to those babies 🙂  Maybe we will have Christmas kittens.

The vet says there are 6 little beans in there.  I’m not good a deciphering kittens, but here is my best guess at what he sees.

Finger crossed for a easy and uneventful birthing.

I have been a bit remiss in updated the webpage.  Mostly because it takes a LOT of time for this non-techy girl to remembe how to do it.

Now that the excuses are out of the way…..here goes….

Brandy will be staying in the cattery.  I hope she continues to develop well and that I can continue to show her and breed her to an outside boy.  Currently the only the boy I have his her father, so here’s hoping my plans work out.

Bramber has been altered and he will be going on a trial soon with his brother Whiskey (formerly Baxter).  If the boys remember each other and it all works out, he will be living close by and I can take him to the occassional show.

Big News…..Kumiko is indeed pregnant.  Will post soon on the the number she is expecting.  Here’s hoping she likes her own kittens cause she is a stinker to everyone else.

BIG BIG NEWS…..

Welcome Home Flame!!

If you have not yet been to the girls page…..I am really excited to introduce our new girl, whom I expect great things from in the future.

Bigrivercoon Lite MyFire of Aoi Neko (Kelimcoons Prism of Bigrivercoon x RW SGC Bigrivercoon Flint).

Thank You! Becky at Bigrivercoon for allowing me the opportunity add this girl to my cattery.

Beginning at 10:14 am and ending at 5:34 pm, Daisy and Tengri brought 5 little kittens into this world. it’s looking like there will be a blue ticked tabby (silver?), Blue Silver Classic Tabby, 2 black silver classic tabby and a black silver ticked tabby.
Very happy to report everyone appears to be doing well so this first 24 hours 🙂

More to come in the days ahead. Be sure to follow Instagram for the most up to date candid photos.

Daisy had her check up on Wednesday and x-rays confirm there are some kittens in there (CH Maine Marie Tengri of Aoi Neko x Pitaracoon Nana Daisy of Aoi Neko).   Vet says 5, I see 6 possibly 8, if I am not simply seing duplicates on the top view, and one of my breeder friends says she sees 9!   Only Daisy and mother nature know for sure.

I hope to have some news in a week or so.   New will likely be posted first on Instagram or Facebook 🙂  Simply because it’s is easier to update than the web page 🙂

Stay tuned 🙂  And while you wait…..

How many do YOU see!
