NEWS FROM THE ISLAND - (is overdue).

HOW MANY WEEKS TO CHRISTMAS? Yep it is down to countdown now and I think I have now worked out which way is up.... on the other hand, that maybe be a maybe.

The gardens have been having to take a good second place as the last weeks have been all about kittens and my life not being helped by my not knowing the dates either Mum was due to have them.

Tara's 2 x day old kittens




The kittens have been born and their arrival dates determined neither cat was mated to the Cattery Ragdoll stud, but instead by our Charles du Bon Accord who decided to do the transition from boy to man and became the dad for both litters.

Meg's 6 x kittens are 4 weeks old on the 22nd - Burmese x Bengal in the main and Tara's 5 x kittens - Siamese x Bengal are just 2 days old.




Unfortunately Meg got mastitis but it was caught before it got too bad; even then it was emergency dash by water-taxi over to the vet on Saturday morning with a follow-up visit again very early Monday morning. Outcome: Meg now looking a whole lot better and I am supplement feeding her kittens with special milk, 4 x a day. I thought you may like some pics.


I hear someone coming!
