So I guess she’s finally arrived in her new home and decided to stay. :)
Bye Lucy… we will miss you!
Good bye Lucy & Leander

Yesterday I met Pamela in Cologne to help move Lucy and Leander to their new homes in the UK.
It was quite a journey, not only for the cats!
But we’re relieved we’ve already heard they are off the ferry and on their way home.
We wish both a lifetime of happiness – a harem for Leander and the male equivalent for Lucy as she’s been calling soooo much recently! It is… I must say… not easy to let go 2 young adults although knowing for a year they’ve never really been “mine”. But still, when you live so close with your cats as I do, it’s hard to realize they are no longer here… big kisses from Vienna!

Leander is 10 and a half weeks old, weighting 1550 grams today. He’s going to be a big boy. And he’s still looking for a loving home!
let’s hear

Last friday we went to the university of veterinary medicine to have the hearing of our l-litter checked. The procedure is called brain-stem audiometry and takes just a tiny tiny narkosis an can be done on babies as young as ours. There are little needles (electrodes) placed under the skin of the head and a computer registers the conduction of certain acoustic signals inside the head.
White cats do inherit a higher risk of being deaf. It’s a defect and should not be bred from. Also cats who produce many deaf kittens aren’t meant to be contributing to the gene pool of any breed. So you can imagine I wasn’t completely calm while watching the procedure.
But you may also imagine how happy I felt when we found out all ears are hearing perfectly!
