One little man left, waiting to find his forever home. He’s a very friendly little guy so hopefully won’t be too long 🤞

Zazu already has a favourite film and decided to act out an iconic scene…

This is the last thing you see before you’re pounced upon by the attack kitten.

In actuality, she’s complaining because she wants to escape the pen 🙄

First adventure outside in to the wide world of “bedroom” this evening at 3 weeks old. Had a few escapees from the box over the last couple of days so they were given the opportunity to stretch their legs. 🐈 💨

Apparently being a kitten is such a hard job that at times you just need to lay back, relax and look adorable.

It’s been a little while since we last posted but a few of you know of the good news by now, it’s just taken a bit of time to actually find a “good” picture of them all!

Happy to share we now have 10 day old kittens; 3 boys and one girl. All three of the boys are using their sister as a pillow here apparently! All four are doing absolutely fine, I’m sure they’ll be causing chaos in a week or two.

Not too much longer to go now, likely a week at most.
I tried explain to explain to Nessa that she’s slightly too rotund now to chase a feather around but she didn’t listen.

This is the end result… 😂🙈

Extremely excited to announce we are expecting kittens again with a due date of the end of September!

MEET THE TONKINESE! 🐱

The stylish Tonkinese, or ‘Tonk’ to his friends, has a strong, elegant body with long slender legs and an expressive tail. Its beautiful head is a medium wedge with large, shapely ears and almond-shaped eyes in sparkling gem colours of aquamarine, topaz or sapphire. It has short close-lying fur. The males are large and noble; the females are smaller and exquisitely feminine.

Records of Tonkinese go back several hundred years to the rare Cat Book Poems of Thailand. They have often been confused with cats that we now call Burmese and Siamese. The three breeds are genetically related and, until the 1970s they were still quite similar in head and body shape; and were being bred together even in to the 1980s. Now, geneticists know that the Tonkinese is unique among cat breeds. Tonkinese share their coat-pattern genes with their Burmese and Siamese cousins; the Tonkinese pattern falling midway between them.

Gregarious by nature, a properly-socialised Tonkinese is an outgoing, confident cat who will make its presence felt; a strong, active and spirited cat who’ll give each family member a chance to love and serve them. They do not mind being housecats as long as they have a companion and plenty to amuse them. They generally get on well with children (provided the children have been properly taught to respect animals), other cats and cat-friendly dogs.

As I’ve had a few people get in touch, our next litter is likely to be due around September time and available early December(ish).
If you’d like to be added to the waiting list so you can take home an extremely judgemental kitten and be guilt-tripped on a daily basis (see below as an example from our last litter…) then please get in touch! 😂

Until then the page will likely be relatively quiet. 😻🫶🏻

With the kittens leaving to go to their new homes this week, our 5 year old decided to make doubly sure that they were well socialised with and used to small children. 😂
Safe to say I think they’re fine…

Sometimes when the kids are asleep all you want is cuddles from your human.

Almost 4 weeks old and growing fast 🥰
Keeping them in one spot for photos is a bit of a challenge 🫣

After matings in August with the gorgeous Ecco, Nessa’s first litter was born on 15th October. Prepare yourself for kitten pictures and videos! 😻🐈
