Something very pleasant for tonight. Photon and Lunar, two boys from different litters have found home with Tyna Wight (quite a while back). Look at them. Bless.
I have just went to finish making the bed. Yes, we have black and white sheets. Look who cropped up. Dreamsong Yngvi of Thorsoak. Since last time I posted him, he has grown. I pride myself in having bred big boys, but I think this one is going to the biggest. Never mind that, his temperament is amazing.
And this is the video. Thank you, Sally Rainbow-Ockwell. And the huge thank you to the breeders of Yngvi, Daedra Marshall and Anne Conrad McCulloch.
You might remember me. My name is Dreamsong Yngvi of Thorsoak. I am a cinnamon spotted Ocicat. I got some good news last week. I am privileged to be registered with 3 Registries. I thought "so what"? Now, I know. My new Mama and Daddy clipped my claws. This can only mean SHOW. Damn it, I can't even play with tie wraps.
We have been homing kittens all weekend. Lyla, a light chocolate spotted Ocicat joined Ruby (one and half year old), a chocolate spotted Ocicat on Monday. Have a look how quick this was. Thank you, Chloe Horne to come back to us.
Yes, it is very dismal and sad around Thor's Oak household. But, distraction helps and it is Friday night, a time for some entertainment. The wizard of Ocicats mastered what everyone fears. How do you give a cat a pill? The one on the video is Gersemi. Honestly, I cannot believe it.
It is Friday night and there is a need for entertainment. Owen is renamed as a Wizard of Ocicats. I agree and he is enjoying it. Look at this, Dreamsong Fulla of Thorsoak, a chocolate smoke Ocicat Classic is grooming him. Hmm, he did not brush his hair.
A long awaiting update on our "handicapped" Leelah. With more physiotherapy, she is everywhere. Owen was going to make amendments for her, no need. Running up and down the stairs, climbing, goes through a flap, she is putting more and more weight on her front paws. Leelah was spayed on Tuesday and guess who is looking after again. Sini Laivo-Widenius's Gefjun.
A video for Saturday night WiliWilla Gefjun has decided that she wants to help Ocicat Land Rindr with her new litter. Well, Rindr is getting tired, kittens are almost 9 weeks old. But, I have noticed one is missing. Rindr took one of them one to a different part of the cat tree. Bless.
Well, after only after 2 and a half weeks after arriving to UK, 10 months old, Dreamsong Yngvi of Thorsoak, decided that he does not mind my phone taking photos of him. Lighting is bad, he is cinnamon. He looks grumpy, but look at the doggie character if Ocicats.
Some cheering up before the weekend. The video is of Tyna Wight's Photon. My husband always said "if the cats develop an opposing thumb, I am leaving the planet".
Ocicat Land Rindr and Thor's Oak Baldr- Sonnüngsson had a litter 7 weeks ago. 2 cinnamon girls, one fawn girl and one chocolate boy. Three are reserved and this video is if a girl, whom I am awaiting for confirmation of her homing. Ever so sweet.
I am finally calming down from importing 3 huge "kittens" cats from USA, to help the genetic pool of Ocicats. They are still in sort of quarantine. But, this my favourite video of Fulla and Gersemi, whilst getting ready to land the first plane from Atlanta Georgia. All of us were very nervous.
Willow is not sad anymore. Due to circumstances, Jasmine and Karen could not meet her prior to her going to her forever home. This is Willow after few hours joing her new Family. Thank you both of you. My heart is melting.
This latest video (plus photos) was headed: "Thank you again for these wonderful friends". There you go, Tyna Wight, Lunar and Photon.
Now FIFe and GCCF registered, our "handicapped" girl. Her name is Thor's Oak Leelah-Lilac. After our physiotherapy, as advised, there was a point when we could not do more. Leelah is showing all strength Ocicats have. Including the fact she has walks on her wrists, she is doing everything else. She can jump, she can climb, she is playfighting with Sol's kitten. She is a purring machine and her favourite toy is my foot.
Something for a laugh. When one neuters a kitten, the vet tells one. You will have a different kitten for few days, be careful, put "it" separately, preferably to a pen etc , etc. The vet gives them collars and recommends body suits. After all these years homing kittens, I tell them there is no point. This is a shining example of Lillia after few hours of neutering, killing her body suit.
Let me introduce you to our first litter after a year of not breeding. Basically, almost 14 years of this very expensive "hobby" (call it 24/7) took its toll. Adding our health problems, we could not cope. Thorsoak Syn ( a black silver spotted Ocicat) was mat with Thorsoak Biorn (a black silver spotted Ocicat) blessed us with 3 kittens, all Classic patterned. One did not make it, unfortunately. These two are thriving, as you can see. They are 6 weeks 'old and they are looking forward to meet their new Family this week.
Gefjun
This is for Sini Laivo-Widenius. Her beautiful and affectionate Gefjun made it our cat proof garden. Still nervous with our menaces, but loves catching flies and the sound of the birds. Sini, she is sending you a big "hello".Feb
