On Saturday we attened the Tica Reginal awards banquet, where we was presented with Sambuca's Award, rosette and certificates, how proud did we feel :-) now we need to find some where to put them all :-)

We also was given Sambuca's award cups for being Best Bengal, Best Silver Bengal and Best Cat in show at the Bengal Cat Club show :-)

What a show season Sambuca had, I do hope Snowball will follow in his foot steps :-)

We attended the Tica cat show in Doncaster last week end, although I really didnt feel like being there as am feeling so sad since my Dad, we did end up having a nice time, Snowball received serveral 2nd/3rd  best of breed's but no finals, there was a lot of stunning bengals there, next show is in two weeks time so I do hope he receives some finals then :-)

Babies are 11 weeks old, all have grown lots this week, and all now jumping over the gate when I go into the room, they have also pulled the blind down at the window twice this week, they are being very cheeky, all love their cooked chicken breast, Valentino growls when eating it as he doesnt want to share, bless him, loving watching our two charcoals grow and develop, Dream's silver boy has the clearest coat. Love Ariel's little silver snow girl she is just such a princess, all babies touch my heart in different ways. Ariel and Dream continue to be the best mummies to all 8 babies, Ariel lets Dream do all the feeding now Ariel lays on the window sill watching, Big brother Snowball has been playing with tthe babies this week, so touching to watch, he just loves them and them him, no hissing or groling, I did laugh through when 3 of the babies looked for his nipples to feed :-) on Monday all kittens will be neutered and spayed, then 2nd vaccinations the following Monday, then off to their new homes, going to miss them all lots, but always here for them and their new mummies and daddie's :-)

On Monday we sadly had Dad's funeral, it rained all day apart from when the coffin was lowered into the ground the sun just came out and it was so sunny, we did Dad proud with the service and wake. Thank you to my daughter Kaylie and her partner Mark and Andy for looking after me on the most tramatic day of my life so far, Love You Dad, you will always be in my heart x x x 

Summerspride Snowball sadly has had to move to the cattery as he has started to spray :-( at 9 & 1/2 months old :-( I really thought he would never spray, miss him so much now he is in the cattery, he really is my baby boy

Ariel and Dream's babies are 10 weeks old and have moved to the bigger kitten room now they are enjoying having lots of space to run around in, on Monday they had their first vaccinations and health checks, all went well, the vet loved our Charcoal kittens, Ariel and Dream continue to be the best mummies to all 8 bengal babies :-)

Lily Kisses and Indian Summer are now in their forever home, both girls have settled well, we look forward to lots of updates and photos from their new mummy and daddy :-)
