We now have deposits on all three kittens. We're planning two litters for March and then another, hopefully, in late summer. Meanwhile, most of the ornaments are still on the tree! Here's a picture of two of the three kittens in the Christmas tree...

Winter has arrived with a little snow on the ground. The tree is trimmed (well, for now, anyway) and our litter of 3 kittens (all boys!) born Oct. 16 are enjoying playing with the unbreakable ornaments hung on the bottom third of the tree. Two will be leaving for Calgary the end of January and one is still available to a wonderful pet home. The boys are pictured below.
We attended the CFA World Show in November with Wynterwynd Postmarque in the kitten class. He competed with 5 other Russian Blue kittens and did great, including Best Kitten in one ring! It was a big, scarey, show though. His next show will be Jan. 12-13 in St. Louis, MO (Sheraton Westport).

All of the kittens from our spring litters are spoken for at this point, though more than half of them are still running around here! Several have left for their new homes in New Jersey, Iowa, Minnesota and Michigan. Two leave Saturday for Ontario and Massachusetts...their new owners are traveling a long way to get them! We will be showing three kittens (Wynterwynd MaRussia, Wynterwynd Penny Lane and Wynterwynd Postmarque) at their first show August 25-26 at the Sacred Cat of Burma CFA show at the fairgrounds in Medina, OH. Come and see us there! Here's a picture of Beach Glass's little girl (her 3 brothers were leaving her alone when I took this picture!)

New computer in the past few months so it's much more time consuming to fire up the old one which is the only way I can update this website. My apologies! Our spring (2012) litters have all arrived; the most recent this past Wednesday when first time mother Mountcascade Edelweiss delivered SIX (!) kittens...she did a great job and is proving to be a patient and calm mother. Five of the six are boys, however, giving us a 2:1 ratio of boys to girls this spring. So, the only kittens yet available for pets are males that would be ready to leave around the first or second week of September. We are working our way through the waiting list through the next couple of weeks. We had four litters this spring (something I said I wouldn't do again--having all of the litters during one time of the year). Fall vacation plans mean we need to make it easy on our cat sitter and except for the few kittens we will keep to show, 13 or 14 of the kittens will be in their new homes by mid-September. The first start leaving in a couple of weeks. Photos below of kittens from this spring's litters. Other news: two retired adults go off to their new homes this month. CH, GP Wynterwynd Lake Effect sired 3 of the 4 spring litters, then was neutered, attained his Grand Premier title in one show (!) and will go to his forever home. Also, CH Heartbeeps Last Dance leaves for her new home in a week.

Summer is here at last and the cats are enjoying the backyard view from the screened porch. Bee Gee's five kittens (one pictured below) are rampaging through the house; I wish I had half of their energy! Penny had four kittens June 12. Depending on which kittens I decide to keep as show prospects, it looks like all of these kittens are committed at this time. No more litters until maybe fall. Last Dance (b. 11/2009) and Serenity (b. 8/2008) were spayed this spring and are looking for their 'forever homes.' Both girls are shy (Dancer) and aloof (Serenity) so patience will be needed! We have added a new female kitten, Kyina Maple Leaf Blues, this month and will be welcoming a Tylona girl (as yet unnamed) later this summer. Of course, they will not be bred until next year, but look for us at the shows: Auburn, IN, July 16; perhaps Windsor, ON, July 23-24; Allen Park, MI, Aug. 20; Medina, OH, Aug. 27-28 and Chantilly, VA, Sep. 10-11.

Serenity's kittens were neutered/spayed this week and will be leaving for their new homes over the next several weeks. They are extremely active and having surgery slowed them down for barely 24 hours. Bee Gee is huge and due next week; Penny is expecting her first litter around 8/24. Both were bred to Tunes. Enjoy this great photo of Wynterwynd Bunny leaping from kitchen counter to island (credit to her owners, the Fritz's)

So much for good intentions (of posting photos). Serenity had five kittens (3M, 2F. one pictured here) on April 27th and we have deposits on all of the kittens. We don't have any litters due at this point so it is likely to be fall 2010 at the very earliest before kittens may be available again. Cristalle (1.5 year old spay) is all we have available and she can be seen in the photo below.

The holidays are over and the Christmas tree survived the onslaught of three kittens who learned quite quickly how to climb up inside of it. Two will be spayed on 1/19 along with Spunky (pictured below). We will then be seeking a special home for our 'special' Spunky. On Dec. 26th, around midnight, Bee Gee (Wynterwynd Beach Glass) had five kittens, 3 males and 2 females. Three are promised or reserved, 2 males are still available as pets. Father is GC Chayat Alexander Petrovich. We are well-insulated here by the three feet of snow (!) that fell the first four days of the new year. That means lots of birds to the feeder which is TV for Kitties!
