Visit to the breeder

Today we went to visit the breeder, Sue of Prekrasne Cats. It's a great house, happy cats, a couple of dogs who also are happy and play with the cats. We couldn't see little Anna today as Sue keeps the kittens with their mom and separate from the rest of the house (which is perfect). However, her other cats are gorgeous and we enjoyed learning about them and her work as a breeder even more. I think Sue has another litter coming up in July and one in late summer.

Anna was small at birth due to the size of the 9 kitten litter. Well, all the babies were small. They've caught up quickly! Now they're getting close to a pound a piece and just started eating cat food and using the litter box.

Exciting times ahead. - jlr

Anna Shea is Ours!

Anna Shea, a four (4) week old Siberian Forest Cat, is ours. Granted, she'll be living at the Prekrasne Siberian Cattery until September when she's been spayed and is 13 weeks old. Yet, she's still ours. We put the deposit down the day before yesterday.

We had several breeds of which our family liked the look. However, the Siberian, a newer breed in America (1990), is not only known to be active and intelligent but also people with allergies seem to have less problems with them than other breeds. Siberians are also thought to almost be dog-like in their quality to greet you at the door, follow you around the house and be super social. We'll let you know.

Anna Shea is a blue solid with white (seen below in profile at 3 weeks) and she's growing like a weed. Go Anna! - jlr
