Congrats, Peter, how cool to get three at the same time! I would also love a third, and I think OH is up for it, but they grow so big I don't think our floor boards could cope with another one!
Can't wait to see the first photo's that your lads are home. Have you thought of names yet?
Our breeder had a couple more litters this year, and we have drooled over her solid white babes. If we went to visit it would be fatal. I suppose this is how it happens.
Yeah... he's stunning!Quote:

Isn't it funny how breeders always invite you to come and see their new litters... they know we're easy targets. :LOL:Quote:

Names ? I have until my next visit, Jan 8th - weather permitting - to decide on their registered names. I am getting closer with better ideas. It does help having an English professor close friend who is also a published author... but I will be the one to make the final decisions.
Thanks everyone for your support and best wishes! I am getting all soft and teary eyed at regular intervals just thinking about them... soppy git.
One thing I will ask for comments on, but there is probably a separate thread in the making, is for experiences with alarm systems and PIRs; I had an alarm system fitted a year ago with "pet friendly" PIRs which are rated up to 10kg *total* per room for pets and, as a long established local company, their senior sales lady who happens to live nearby says they have never had a problem with their own cats but they are not MCs. Anyone want to share ?
I remember my hesitation about getting two instead of one. So glad I made the decision to get both. Littermates have easier time to adjust.
Did you say picture #5? Who in the world would resist?
Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww just perfect :nod:
OK, I didn’t mean to say breeders are pushy... ours certainly aren’t. But they do take care to update us on their plans and new litters, sending pics, and inviting us over to admire the new arrivals. I don’t mind a bit… even regard it as a compliment, it shows they trust and appreciate us as owners.Quote:

Why restrain yourself ?
