Thread: I rang the breeder last night!

There's always something to tell, no matter how young they are! With all our Coonies - and our Oriental Shorthair as well - we also got weekly updates from the catteries. And I very regularly call and mail to get updates on how much they weigh, how naughty they have been, ...

But I also know that we're very lucky that the people from both catteries are very good friends of ours and that we understand each other very well. The people from the cattery where Willow and Indy come from, have become our friends since we got Willow there 3,5 years ago and the people from the cattery where Axxes and Esme come from were friends of ours before they even started their cattery.

So the fun part is, that we also get weekly updates on all the other kittens that are born there, and I go for a visit every time they have kittens to do a “semi professional” photo shoot (since photography is one of my hobbies). We used to visit our kittens several times as well while we were waiting for them. Once they were old enough for people to visit, nobody could stop me! ;)

Don’t worry about being "obsessed", it just shows that you care about the kitten you're expecting and that you're curious about how it's doing. If everything goes as planned, we may have kittens from Esme in the future, and I know that I will want future owners to regularly call or mail me to check on how the kittens are doing, cause that shows that they're really interested. Someone who won't make the time to do that, will never get a kitten from me.

how exciting! and good to know that all the kittens are doing so well I bet you can't wait, I know how excited I was waiting on ours to come to their new home, they soon settle in quickly!

good move, on waiting til after christmas though! what with the toddler and all, I am sure you will have your hands full over the christmas!
