Few stories from the nursery there!

The kittens are continuing to grow and thrive...

Ylfa is the most mature of the bunch - tho she loves pouncing on bare toes! her other obsesion is the basket that they play in and she loves to lay low in the bottom, wait for someone to come by then - bat! Paw round the head!!

Oskar and Spud and Dave play ENDLESSLY together - pouncing, batting, jumping, chasing, stalking, nipping and cuddling - utterly adorable

Kisa is a people person - usually to be found as near to any member of the family as she can get ;o) She loves the kids and is happy to be picked up and fussed :o)

Don't forget to check out their facebook site!!.....

life in the nursery continued....

v `09

heheheeee - the above was written by our cheeky scamp Oskar as he walked across the laptop!!

life in the nursery is still so much fun - the kittens are now sooooooo confident and capable - 2 of them were found climbing the stairs yesterday ;o)

Bit more on their personalities:

Kisa remains the most cuddly of all the kittens - she loves attention and purrs when you fuss her

Oskar and Spud are the playful duo - they're just a joy and delight to watch as they tumble, play fight and pounce around the house :o) I wish you could be here now watching kisa, oskar and spud leap on and off the sofa, up and down my leg and over my laptop keyboard ;o) they are delightful!!

Dave is now becoming more assertive - he's taken to rolling over for a tummy tickle when we come in ;o) He is soooo sweet natured and laid back!

Ylfa is the most mature and grown up of the kittens! Less likely to be found pouncing and play fighting - she watches from a distance and then almost "humphs" with disdain when the other kittens bounce around like crazy kittens! She is adorable and responsive - as long as you don't pounce around her ;o)

Introducing Gunnar

Gunnar (Dave) is our gentle giant. The biggest and most laid back of the litter - Where Spud is the last to sleep, Dave is the first! He's got stunning chunky legs and I think will develop more of his Dad's colouring than his Mum's. He should be a huge boy when he's finished growing - none of our kittens are small and Dave is considerably bigger than Ylfa and Pall Oskar who are next in size :o)

Introducing Pall Oskar

Our Oskar turned into a super model for these pictures! He was so much fun to photograph!! Oskar responds to well to our voices and I think will be as easy to train as his mum. Oskar is a big chunky boy with ear tips that seem to grow every day!

Introducing Lilil Kartafla

Our little Spud is the smallest of the litter but still a big, bold and beautiful girl! Spud has no fear - she climbs the highest, experiments first with all new experiences (the water bowl was a particularly funny one) and loves attention and play. When all her brothers and sisters are sleeping, she stays awake and pounces on their tails and then comes for cuddles. Her face is just beautiful, great eyes and a light patch on either side of her nose that gives her real definition.

introducing Ylfa

This is our beautiful big poly - Ylfa. Ylfa has stunning ear tips and a beautiful expression in her eyes. She reminds me very much of her Mum at the same age :o) All the kittens have gorgeous temperaments and Ylfa is curious, playful and clever!

introducing Kisa

This is our little Kisa - our cuddly teddy bear with stunning colouring and the most sweet and affectionate nature of the litter. Even if she's feeding, Kisa will jump up as soon as the door to the kitten nursery opens and come for fuss! She's a total foot monster and is just adorable through and through :o)

the kittens are growing well....

An update from the nursery - I've sent some individual pics to Gertrud so please check out their own galleries :o)

I've been away for a week on holiday and when I left, the kittens had finally just got out of their cage, all wobbly and uncoordinated and were staggering around the dining room. I returned yesterday and they are running, jumping, pouncing, climbing AND eating!! Oh yes, our kittens are now tucking into their Eagle Pack with their Mum and really only feed from her 2-3 times a day :o) We're working on house training them now too :o)

A bit about our kittens:

Litil Kartafla (Spud) is the smallest girl but still no titch - she weighed in today at 596g. Spud is THE MOST curious, she's always out first, when the others settle down for a sleep she pounces on them to wake them up. Trying to take photos of her is a nightmare cos she moves CONSTANTLY. She's a beautiful little girl though and extremely friendly.

Kisa (Kizzy) is the next biggest girl (632g today), straight foot and a total teddy bear! She's got chunky legs and a chunky body and she puts her head on one side to examine you carefully. Kizzy loves cuddles already and is the most likely to try to climb onto your lap - even at 5 weeks. I think she may be my favourite ;o) Her markings are also stunning - and she's a bit of a ginger nut with her beautiful rufus tones.

Ylfa (Elfie) is the biggest girl (638g today) and I think she looks a lot like the pictures of her Mum at the same age. Wide set big ears with lovely long ear tips and big poly front feet. Ylfa is more cautious than her sisters - but I think she's clever! She waits to see how much trouble they get into by climbing up speaker fronts (Kisa got stuck today!), playing with the water in the water bowl and attempting to eat cat litter and then decides whether or not to follow suit!!

Pall Oskar is the smaller of the two boys at 644g today. I think he's stunning! The boys tend to follow the girls at the moment but Oskar is so happy to have a bit of fuss and he is sooooo capable phsyically now - he's mastered the jump, pounce and run!

Gunnar (Dave!) is the biggest kitten at 665g and he's a stunner :o) I think he may end up being a real chip of his Daddy's block and he has his Dad's laid back nature too.

All 5 kittens are characterful, gorgeous markings and will make great additions to any household - fun, relaxed, curious and a joy to look at - check out their pics and enjoy :o)

Ylva and Kisa

Here are 2 of my gorgeous girls at 5 weeks old :o) Ylva (on the left) is our little poly and the spit of her Mum - check out the lynxy eartips and the huge poly feet :o) She's marginally heavier than her teddy bear sister Kisa (on the right). Kisa is (if I'm allowed to say this!) my favourite - she is SOooooo friendly, placid and curious. She's a more chunky kitten with a swagger in her walk and big chuncky legs and the most adorable face. Ylva is slightly more cautious but is enjoying her new found ability to pounce :o)
