Introducing our new 'kid' - Freya the Feral Purrbaby

We are thrilled with our new 'family member' from our good friend Grace at Makeitmaines
Freya has the looks of a feral with the heart of a purrbaby. She is a lovely big robust girl combining true to type coonie looks, size and a sweet coonie purrsonality.

Her coat is a rich, dark black tortie tabby and she has some interesting old coonie lines that will be exciting to work with later on

Just thought I'd share some pics of my two gorgeous little boys with you - though Thomas Wayne isn't so little anymore!
Thomas is doing very well, he now thinks he owns the place and bosses us around. I forgot to get his dried food the other week and he had to slum it with wiskers for a few days and I swear he sulked!
The other amusing thing about him at the moment, if we are watching TV at night and sitting on separate couches he divides his time between us. It's very sweet!!
Clark now has to kiss him goodbye if we go out and before he goes to bed. If Thomas is asleep somewhere and Clark can't see him he calls 'Keee here keee'
As you can see they do pretty much everything together!

Cheers Christine

CCCA NATIONAL CAT SHOW IN MELBOURNE (over 600 cats on show from all over Australia)

The first weekend in May we caught the ferry boat to the big Island with  3 5 1/2 month old kittens 'stowed' away in our luggage.
We had a great weekend, they charmed the favour of some judges and we made some great friends.

Well Max has been here just over 3 weeks and I can't imagine the house without him.
He has adjusted so well - afer the initial settling in he is eating with the Slinky's and out in the day pen with them.
He is a real live wire - Molly tries to disipline him but he doesn't take much notice - he certainly doesn't get offended by anything!
Ryan and he get on briliantly - this breed is built for hav ing kids around - he takes everthing in his stride.
He has been much admired at the vet last week - they have a litter of 5 week old kittens they have been finding homes for and comparing them to "Max" was quite funny - he is a big boy and boy does he like his food.

So all goes well and he loves having the other 2 teenager Slinky's to play with - they really are a very nice combination - Ruby ( the
little Heeler) thinks all cats are great
Take Care, Diana



Ruby has a new friend


 

16/08/2009: Here are some new photos of Orion! He's settled in completely and now owns the place! Well, at least, he thinks he owns the place.
We all know that Georgie is really the boss!
He and Georgie play a lot now and he spends all day in the cat run! He also plays will Bella (the dog) which is very funny to watch! He loves to stretch.
Anyways! Hope you like the photos Jess

 
Peek a boo.

Hey Cynthia,
It wouldn’t be easy to say goodbye, but in effect you sharing your love gives all your purchasers a more loving kitten, who enjoys affection and being with people very much.
We had a big day here today, a baby pigeon flew into our warehouse with a baby magpie hot on his tails, so a temporary truce was called for a unified feline attack force.
Here Satan and Truffles are lead by Major Minke Minx on the offensive. Sugar taught Satan very, very well, he was calm, collected and crouching as he inched closer.
We managed to save both birds, but it took us an hour to get the magpie out!
Interestingly it seems to have been a great venting of tension, and I got a few hours of happy, calm adult cats for a barbecue dinner while Satan had a nap after all the excitement!

He has rev’ed up a little today too, he is lying on the back of the couch I sit on, scooting along the wall biting it.
He pretends to bite me as he goes past, then turns around and scoots back the other way, with big wild eyes looking very fierce.

Dear Anne,
Again thank you for turning my idea 'to reflect the clear blue skies and gum trees of the Australian landscape' - into the theme of my lovely friendly website.
Whilst designing this site Ann touched base with me many, many times and patiently made adjustments here and there -till I was totally satisfied and happy with her design.
And ever since when I have updates or changes to make  - I just have to email any photos - text and details to Anne - and hey presto 'like magic' they appear.
Many people have complimented the user friendly layout since it was developed for me.
I think Anne's designs and ongoing maintenance represent excellent value for money in professional website design available.
For anyone thinking about a website I would thoroughly recommend you check out Anne's site and contact her with your ideas for a quote.

"We are so delighted with Thor. He travelled home without a sound, came swaggering out of the carry box, checked us out and his surroundings and within a couple of hours was out of his room and bouncing around the lounge room. He decided very quickly that we were his family.

On Saturday we had lots of visitors (who came just to meet him) and he greeted them as if he had always been part of our family.

It’s funny, if we are eating at the table and we leave to go into the lounge and he is asleep on one of the chairs . You hear a squeak when he wakes up and you have to say “We’re in here Thor and in he stalks,settles on Pete’s lap and resumes his nap.

 

He follows me every where, and when I am playing with him he races up and down the stairs from his room along the corridor, through the kitchen and back!

Thank you so much for our bundle of joy!"

"Bella has settled in really well, it took Kel a little while to get used her new friend with oodles of energy!  We had some growling and hissing, now they are best friends! They chase each other around the house and enjoy play fighting on the lounge room floor. She is funny at bed time and thinks it is funny to give me kisses through the night! and pouncing on Sam's head!!  She is just a bundle of joy and constantly has us laughing with her antics.We love her dearly and she has fitted in really well!"

Henry is such a fun ‘little’ fella and is very affectionate.  He's taken to sometimes sleeping on my pillow above my head which means that I wake up with funnier hair than it normally is.  Henry is getting quite chatty and loves to see us when we come in.  He has wonderful eyesight and spots a little creature from a great distance - some tiny tiny insect, barely visible to us, which he of course loves chasing.  We're wondering how he's going to react to seeing his first huntsman.

 

John and I were only saying the other day that the best decision we've made this year was to get ‘little’ Henry.  We can't imagine what it would be like without him. What must it be like for you with all your little friends!?

 Thanks again for keeping in touch, 

Love to all from Jacque, John, Aphid and Henry X

 

24/10/2008 Chicago- is doing well. He is one very clever cat.

He & Molly play flat out morning & night, but sleep from lunch time on.  They play fight which is quite funny to watch; Chicago just drops (more of a flop really) straight to the floor & poor little Molly can’t reach him because he just sticks his legs out to stop her.  They run & chase each other; it looks quite funny they will go one direction with Molly chasing Chicago, then they come back the other direction with Chicago chasing Molly.

He has gone through 2 toy mice & is onto his third. He will sit in the spare room & watch the dogs as they play in the back yard.  I'm sure he 'taunts' them when they can't reach him.  He loves smooching the window with them on the other side of it.

He still loves getting in the shower each morning once I've finished, he sits on the mat waiting for me to get out & as soon as I open the door he steps in as I step out.  I think that’s become a bit of a habit.”

I have some photos & video (on the camera) at home which I must bring in & send to you.  People can’t get over the size of him & when I tell them that yours are actually larger they are a bit gob smacked.  Everyone loves his tail, it’s the first thing they all seem to say 'look at his tail', he then proceeds to flop & seems to say 'yeah I know, isn't it good'.

 

 

 

 

 

We have built a run for them onto the side of the house, as I did not want to confine them just to indoors, but wanted them to be able to go out, but be safe from other cats & for the wildlife to be safe from them.  They access it through the cat door & its about 2.5 metres long & is as high as the eaves.  Dad put a floor in it, so that they wouldn't come inside with dirty wet feet.  They both love it, we've put a day bed & scratching pole out there for them & we are looking at building some steps up the wall & putting a couple of hammocks in there for them, once I can figure out how. .  When they are playing Chicago goes through the cat door like a bull at a gate, all you hear is this bang, thump, thump & you know they are running around

 Regards Kathy

I'm starting to discover the perils of having a big cat.  Namely that if he falls asleep on my arm, my arm goes to sleep as well.  Oh, well.

Here is a photo a photo of him with his friend.

 

 

1/9/2008- Chicago is such a wonderful boy, I think he is an old sole in a young body; nothing really worries him, only if he doesn't get enough bickies left for him!

Molly has settled down with him & they play flat out together, sometimes they get a bit rough; but they soon sort their selves out.  Usually Chicago just rolls over & gives into her, I think its easier.

Regards Kathy

I thought you might like to see some photos of “little” Jamieson.  He has settled in really well and has made ‘best friends’ with our other cat Abby.

He is absolutely adorable and has the most lovely personality J

23/7/2008 – Pascal the Rascal

 

Just a quick note, Pascal's going wonderfully, you were right about him being a water-baby, he will jump into the bath with me, he has no fear of water, he's absolutely fascinated by it and loves to splash his paws. I've been staying down at the shack with him for the last week, and letting him out supervised for a while each day, we're right on the water, he was intrigued by the water and waded straight in!

 

He's very good in the car and has no issues about travelling in a cat carrier. He's the smartest cat I've ever known, he's becoming a master at fetch, we can play for hours. His favourite toy is still his little white mouse (which is becoming quite grey by now), closely followed by bottle tops which he can keep himself fascinated with for hours on end, despite any fancy toys I buy him. He loves to wrap himself around your shoulders, purring contentedly.

 

He's quite big already, he's already outgrown Mia my parents cat, I took him around for a visit the other day, Pascal is so trusting, wanted to make friends but Mia was having none of it and went and hid under the bed. He's quite fearless and loves to explore new places, when any other cat would be wary and put out.

 

He loves his brush and gets a grooming every day when I finish work, it's our special bonding time, he likes to help and will wash himself at the same time, he's gorgeous to watch, if you show him his tail he will wrap his paws around it and start grooming, and will roll over for you to brush both sides for him. Until he starts becoming playful which usually means it's time for a game of fetch.

 Cheers, Erica & Pascal
