Diary
October 21st.
It's been a while since I wrote something but I've been busy.
First there was Mon Ami in Luik where it was very comfortable and my friend was there as well. She was next to the hamsters and gerbils.
You had to see the kittens look at them, especially the kittens who were licking their mouths which gave great pictures for the people.
We have received very nice responses and of course Macgyver was stealing the show on top of the cage.
On the 18th of October I went to Eindhoven together with my son. There we have, together with Karin, visited the Felinotechnical Symposium where the theme was health and behavior in a cattery, which was organised by Royal Canin and where different professors gave a speech.
You could also ask questions afterwards.
You paid €60 for it but it was worth it. You received the Royal Canin encyclopedia as well. Next year we definitely do it again.

On November 14th the ones who want it can meet the pixie bob in Hasselt.
We also go to the Martens garden and decor cat show 2009. You can get to know this unique breed on the animal happening in the expo in Hasselt on the 27th, 28th and 29th of November.
So all to Hasselt so you can see for yourself how nice and gentle these animals are.
As I mentioned before in my diary TV 1 came filming in May and it will be broadcasted by the end of 2009 or begin 2010.
I will let you know about the right date.
Everyone who have bought there kitten here can soon look at it on TV 1. Of course I'm very proud on it and I hoop that these animals will get better known this way.
So people I see you soon in Hasselt.
Today Nanda Grundmann has visited us as well with Makena. She is almost as big as her mother Menetoh and looks like Maiky but without a tail.
She played with her sisters as if she had never left. No hissing or growling. She even greeted Pukkie, so sweet.
She has explored the house and I enjoyed cuddling her. Thank you Nanda we really liked it and it was nice to see you again. We have to do that again soon.

October 23rd.
Today Reighn's uterus and ovaries have been removed.
The operation was performed by Nele Steegen in Borgloon and all went well. She has also told me what was wrong and has showed me where it was.
Three weeks ago she was pregnant and we could clearly see two kittens and last week I noticed something was wrong. An echo showed that the kittens were re-absorbed by her body and I felt sad about that.
It would have been her first nest here in Belgium and it confirmed that Macgyver was fertile but it wasn't meant to be.
Of course I wanted to know what went wrong so they decided to take a scan in the animal clinic in Hasselt to be sure what was wrong with Reighn's uterus. Nele was so kind to drive for which I'm grateful.
On the scan you could clearly see there were mukus and cystes so she was operated today.
I had told Nele to remove everything if there was something that could give problems in the long run.
She will never have kittens again but she will be healthy again and that is the most important.
Next year she can help caring for the other kittens just like she did with the last two nests from Mona Lisa and Menetoh.
It's very sad things went like this, she would have been a good mother for her kittens.
This kitten will stay in our breeding program and in January when Perla gets in heat she can go playing with Macgyver.
