Today’s guests: Thomas, Olllie and Sonsha and ChiChi
Excellent weather for the long weekend so we have a full cattery and very busy time.
Thomas doesn’t care about the weather as long as he has his beer box.

Two pairs of cats Wilson and Henry and Mickey and Festa went home today to their respective families. Yesterday it was Meika and Dusky Boy’s turn.
Very happy to announce that Taj has approved at least a couple of our wet food offerings, it was Desire; why did it take us so long to realise!!! He continues to delight everybody with his looks and lovely personality.

And we thought it couldn’t happen: a male tortoiseshell kitten has been reported

The information I have about “male” tortoiseshell cats is that what appears to be male is actually an XXY individual (a male with an extra X chromosome) and therefore although appearing male, is actually sterile. The other possibility is a “chimera”- a fusion of two embryos.
