We are between litters right now, but we’re planning to have our next litter around the middle of this year – and we’re expecting some silvers in this one!

All six kittens are doing really well, toddling around and learning to play – and complaining loudly when their mum decides that playtime is over and they should really be napping now. She does eventually get them to settle down and sleep occasionally though.
We have 3 girls (with the red, orange, and yellow collars), and 3 boys (with the green, blue, and purple collars). Our one classic patterned baby is a boy, named Cheesecake for his marbled chocolate colours.
Come and see George at his very first show, on July 24th! It’s a Christmas in July themed show, held by CatsWA. The venue will be the Cyril Jackson Recreation Centre on Fisher Street, in Bassendean (WA). It should be fun. We obviously hope that the judges like George, but even just being there will be worthwhile. 🙂
Little Alpha (named Felix by his new parents) has had his first vaccinations, and is looking super cute. He’s growing into a really cuddly lapcat, when he’s not running around playing. 🙂 He’s also learning to be a shoulder-cat, learning from his mama.
Little Alpha is still growing every day. His eyes are open now, and he’s learning to play. His mama has started teaching him about the litter tray too, and he’s socialising with the other cats through the nursery gate. He has the instincts of a model, though, posing for the camera – whereas mama cat was too concerned with if she could pounce on the camera to do more than look derpy 🙂 (but still adorable)
Alpha is getting so big! He’s losing his kitten fuzz, and starting to show his adult colours, with sharply defined black spots on a sandy, tawny coat. His eyes are open, now, too, and he’s starting to track movement and shapes. His little kitten purr is the cutest thing.
The last two weeks have been very busy. A possible complication in Cloud’s pregnancy led to a an after-hours vet visit and an emergency caesarian section – a week before the birth was due. Although three kittens were born, only one of them made it through the night. We’re all so sad for Cloud’s loss, although happy that she’s come through the experience okay.
We’re also very pleased to introduce little Alpha. He’s still very young, and will need extra special care for a few weeks yet because he was born premature, but he’s feisty and adventurous already. His eyes aren’t even open and he’s exploring already.
It’s our very first litter at Sunchaser, and we’re very proud of our little girl for being such a diligent mama. There has never been such a loved (and clean!) kitten before, or at least not in this house.
Cloud is due to give birth to her kittens next week on Saturday or Sunday – which is super exciting. It’s her first litter, and ours as well. She’s looking ready to be done with being pregnant already – she’s huge and barrel-shaped to the point where she waddles rather than walks at the moment, and can only just reach to scratch her ears.
She’s still eating well, and we’ve only had one incidence of morning sickness so far (poor kitty is hungry but her kittens are taking up so much of the room in her body that there isn’t much left for her tummy – if she eats too much, too fast, she can’t keep it all down). Aside from being a little ungainly, though, nothing has changed; Cloud is still the sweetest, purringest baby and wants to play or just curl up next to me while I read a book or do some work on the computer.
We’re not sure how many kittens will be in the litter, but she looks too big for it to be only one or two. All our fingers and paws are crossed for a safe, easy delivery and a healthy litter. I’ll post pics once the babies are born.
