Pick up dates Sunday Dec 3rd through Sunday Dec 10th. (both litters)
Personality descriptions of 8 1/2 week old kittens below.
These descriptions will be updated weekly and will change as the kittens develop into their confident, independent selves.
Food: Recommend you continue to feed Blue Buffalo Tastefuls/kitten dry plus Fortiflora Probiotics for at least the 1st month.
I'll be emailing a kitten care guide , sales agreement and pedigrees, pet insurance info over the next few weeks.
When can we pick our kitten? Soon! The picking has started and we are very carefully going in "order" of the reservation list.
I'll mark the kittens "reserved by.." as that happens and will reach out to all of you individually to help you gather info to make a good choice that will match your family.
What happens if I don't like my choices? In this case you will be offered a refund of your deposit OR you can go on the wait for Spring litters and be top of the list then.

Jane: Very very sweet and more reserved than Tom. Not demanding like Tom and uses him as an emotional support partner. They are always together and a natural pairing. They will be adopted together and going to live in British Columbia. Jane's new name is Ruby.
Red mackerel tabby female.

Tom: Outgoing and playful. Likes to explore. Jumps in your lap and can snuggle but also very playful. He will be a 'door greeter' type.
He is reserved with Jane and will be Theo possibly in his new home. Seal Point male.

Willa: Confident, bright, happy friendly. Chunky. (She is big) Likes to play. She has extra fur over her eyes like her Dad Flambeau. Red point female.
Charlotte: Bonds strongly with her people but not an outgoing door greeter. She loves being in your lap . Charlotte will do best in a calm environment. She is a bit shy at this stage however is showing great improvement and gaining confidence as each day passes. Seal point with white mittens, female.

These kitties are on the same track as Anna's kittens except their room is smaller and they are all potty training perfectly. Less room for errors. These kittens are eating Royal Canin Mother and Baby cat kibble right now. I'll transition them onto Gerber babyfood in a few days too. They are all sleeping in the nest box but running around the room and climbing a lot and then napping and repeat.

Gorgeous group of four still in the nest box but about to get out to freedom tomorrow. They are ready to start eating solid food. I can tell because one of them is sucking on her paw. ALso they are rearing up on the edge of the box meowing at me to be picked up. What cuties. The three girls are the red tabby, the red point and the seal point with white mittens. The only male is very cute and small . He is probably going to be huge but right now he's cute as a button and petite.

Four beautiful sleepy fat kittens! I think we have 3 girls and 1 boy but I'll know for certain soon. Hazel is such a pro, and doing an awesome job feeding and cleaning her little ones. Looks like a red mackerel tabby , a flame point, and 2 lynx points. ? Coloring will become more clear in the coming weeks. Eyes shut. Full bellies. Very quiet.
Four lovely kittens were born on the Ninth of September in the morning around breakfast time. There are 3 colorpoints and one red tabby. Photos to come shortly. Hazelnut doesn't like to move out of the way so it is hard to get a glimpse of the babies.
