Kittens have just started to walk on us. For the kittens it looks like all ear, sex, and hair length is still subject to change as kitten develops, especially sex, their parts are all still bity and long hair covers parts. Visits may possibly start next week around Thurs the 24th.

Kitten #1: Long hair folded white, possibly male. Very high quality with tiny nose, flat face, and wide round head, very long fur. Will go for show price and possibly be reserved for cattery when tail and leg quality becomes more formed.

Kitten #2: Medium hair (possibly long or short) folded kitten white, possibly female. This one is a good quality kitten, cute little nose and wide face, just not as super high quality like the better kitten. Fur length is in the middle right now and could go either way.

Kitten # 3: Silver and white long hair straight kitten, probably female. High quality silver we were really hoping would fold so we could keep her. She will start at $1000 and is the most inquired about kitten. Very wide face with short nose and gorgeous long fur.

Kitten #4: White shorthair straight with spots. This boy was the runt of the litter and with help nursing he passed up the next smallest two. He is the most active and runs around the room. Will probably be the most playful and fearless of the bunch. It will be harder and harder to catch him on camera as he speeds up. This boy has a long face and will go for a pet price lower than the $750 that straights start at. Because of this he may be snatched up quickly as he will probably be the cheapest kitten.

Kitten #5: White with huge silver spot long hair possible male. This boy is very high quality with super wide face, tiny nose and plush long hair. He will stay at the base price of $750 because of his large spot which is considered a fault. It may develop into a silver patch with stripes. Great opportunity to get a very high quality straight at base price because of his patch.

Kitten # 6: Straight white long hair no spots, sex too hard to even guess. This kitten has a nice long hair, and we're waiting to see how he develops. Right now there are no faults, but in a litter of 6 with 5 whites has been the least distinguishable, and it was very hard to tell 4 of the white apart when doing the first 3 week daily weighing to make sure no one was fading. Now that they've started walking on us we will start to be able to tell them apart.

Here's some more pictures of the group or ones we couldn't tell who it was.

Ears are just starting to fold on the kittens. Their eyes are open and they are starting to walk and about to start crawling out of the bed.

Kittens are a 1.5 weeks old. Their eyes are starting to open but they still just sleep and nurse.

Kittens are 5 days old. We've been helping the runt nurse and it was 25% smaller than it's siblings when it was born, and is now the same weight as the next 2 smallest. We're weighing them every day to make sure we catch any that start to fade.

Here's a picture of the spotted boy going to his new home in Canada this weekend. His head is rounding out nicely.

And here's the girl we'll start showing in March.

Krispy Kreme got adopted the first night of our Spokane show. Our kittens also got spectators choice awards for Sunday and both days, and probably would have got Saturday but we forgot to put up their number until lunch time so people could vote. And our new kittens were born Sat 2/20. There are 5 white and 1 silver. We'll be very busy helping Nina out with the kittens, it's her largest litter and there is a very small runt we will have to help nurse so it doesn't fade. We'll be weighing them twice a day and giving nina raw and canned food 4 times a day on top of open dry food. We will be keeping the silver if it a fold without any flaw. Sex, hair, and ear length to be determined as the kittens get older.

We brought Krispy Kreme, the unspotted boy, in to be neutered today so he would be available for immediate adoption at our cat shows, but found out he has 1 undecided testicle. Because of this he is discounted from the price of $1500 to $1000. He will only go to a family with prior pets with major medical issues and proof of this must be provided in paper, either receipts for medication or vet fees, charts from said pet or a letter from your vet. In your inquiry provide us with your pet experience; we will NOT be waiving this requirement.

His testicle may descend by 6-9 months and he can get a regular neuter. If it doesn’t descend by 9 months he will need surgery to find it. Please inquire with your vet for cost if you wish to know how much that may be. The testicles MUST be removed by 9 months old or they can cause cancer.

If you cannot meet these requirements then simply wait and see if he is still here when he reaches 6-9 months old and we will do the surgery and then he will go for full price.

Krispy Kreme and Sweetie Belle will be at all our upcoming shows, unless Krispy gets adopted. Sweetie Belle is going to be our new show cat and will start competing as a kitten in March. There are a lot of shows until the end of show season in May. Here are our upcoming shows until then.

Here's a video of the non-spotted boy snuggling with me and an older fold. The focus of the camera is covering the purring, but every know and then you can hear it. When they started cleaning each other we had to keep our selves from squealing.

In this video the two folded boys are playing with the box their high tech remote control mouse came in (typical, the box is better than the toy). The one facing the camera most of the time is the available non-spotted boy, the other is the reserved spotted boy.
