Miss me?


Sorry I haven't been on TCS for a couple of weeks! I've been REAL busy.

I'll start off on a sad note, sadly we had to give our two puppies Melody & Zeppelin away - they had just ruined our house and their barking drove the neighbours nuts they complained so much that we now have fines amounting to $3000 for them. Yes, I know that with some behaviour classes the pups would have been OK but to be truthfully honest we just didn't have time.

Next I received my meningococcal b vaccine a couple of days ago and my left arm has just been in absolute agony! It's been a real struggle for me getting everything done. I'm also suffering from a bad chest infection at the moment!
To read more about it visit this website.

On a good note I attented a cat show down in Christchurch last weekend and as most of you know my show kitten this year is Bridget. There was a huge class of 37 kittens - 6 exotics and Bridget did really well to acheive another 4th BEST IN SHOW! Also a reserve of breed. I came home estatic! Sadly Bridgey could only be shown in one ring because my Nana was judging the other.


Also I have moved my four little 5 week old kittens into the lounge from my bedroom so they can have more sunshine, they definitly aren't thriving - it's much too late in the season to have kittens this young! (It's nearly winter here) I've also moved my kittens Dance & Lonestar into the lounge, they are my up and coming show babies.

Ohwell I've rambled more then enough for the moment. I'll be on and off today, catching up on the posts I've missed.

Miss you guys, and good to be back!

Sam

Hi Sam!!! Welcome back, you've been missed. Sorry to hear about your pups and your sore arm
. That's a real bummer. Congrats on Bridgey's recent accomplishments, though. Oh, Sui says she has something for you: *smooches*

Hello Kelly.

Thanks for the welcome back. Yea it is a bummer isn't it. I feel like such a mean Mummy that I couldn't give them the life they deserved. You really need to be with them 24-7. Thanks for the Bridgey congrats! and well as for Sui!
Also two
from Wicket & Bubbles(I'm yet to name the remaining two of the litter!)

Thanks again,
Sam!

Will you be able to visit them in their new homes?


Meningitis jabs suck! I hope your arm gets better soon!

Briget did so well! You must have been soooooo pleased!

We sure did miss you and wondered where you were! Sorry about your puppies. Everyone will be happier this way and they'll love their new family! Congratulations, Bridget!
So sorry you aren't feeling well, Sam, what a nasty effect from that vaccine! Hope you feel better very soon, you have a lot of catching up to do!

At the kitty's beck and call
Welcome back Sam
. Gee what a time you've been having. Sorry to hear that you're not well - but at least you know you're protected against Meningitis B now, it's worth it in the end.

Good girl Bridget - what a little star you are


Sorry to hear about your puppies - that's sad
and so hard for you to have those fines too.

I hope that your little kittens do well and start to thrive.


I hope that you're not affected by the floods in Wellington either - I saw how many homes had been lost to the landslips this week and I was thinking of you.

Nice to see you back

Welcome back!
It sounds like you definitely have been busy! I'm sure you miss the puppies, but it's good you were able to find homes for them that have the time for training and such. Congrats on the great show award! That's awesome!

Feel better soon!
