Litter D Update

Well five of the litter D kittens have been in their new homes for about a week. Reports are they are settling in nicely and have charmed their new owners totally with their big purrs and their nonstop antics.

Kittens #2 and #3 (Now named Darcey Bussell and Disco Tango) were the first to leave home. Disco didn't miss a step and was ready to rock as soon as they moved in with Tia-Toni and Adam in Kelowna. Darcey being a little more sensitive was very glad to have his big brother along to help with his transition.

Leaving home

Well its that bittersweet time. The kittens from Litter D have been neutered/spayed and this week they will begin leaving for their new homes. Its bitter because we will definitely miss this lively and adorable crew. It is sweet because they are going to wonderful homes and 2 sets of kittens are going as pairs so they won't be lonely. They seem to know something is up - today we found them all sleeping together (maybe it also has something to do with the colder weather) but I thought I'd share the pictures with you. Poor little Didi (#4) is on the bottom and you can't see can only see Disco's (#3) ears but you can see they are all fine, fine Siberians.


Bye for now - Noko!!

Murlyka D 8 wk Group shot

Well we finally did it - got all the kittens together and got a picture.
You need to catch them when they are tired and then you need to keep them all awake -

I think its a mighty fine bunch of grandchildren - wouldn't you agree?

The Sky Tower

The girls were rather jealous of my outdoor run - so the builder made a little space for them.

He made a beautiful run just outside their door but the typist thought the Siberians need places to get

up high and enjoy the view - so this is what the builder came up with - There are three longs runs suspended from the ceiling like the one Miisu is laying on.

They connect with gang planks for the kittens to walk or as they get braver they simply jump from one to another. Room for the whole litter of kittens and all the girls to hang out and look down on the rest of the world.

I gotta say the builder is a pretty handy guy to for a cat to hang around with.

Anya and Alina

So this is what retirement looks like - my first love Anya and our daughter Alina (Ali) now leave in Vernon, BC with 5 adoring family members. Here they are enjoying the view from the window - you can clearly see the difference between a mackerel tabby (left) and a classic tabby (right) in this picture. They both have great coats and beautiful eyes. We miss them here at Murlyka but are very happy that they have found such a wonderful new family to pamper them.

Introducing Seven

Seven is a beautiful little girl who looks a lot like her mom. She is a mackerel tabby with high white markings including a white shoulder necklace and chevron on her back. She is finished off with a white tip on her tail and dark left elbow patch.

They don't come any sweeter than seven - she loves to cuddle in beside you and purr.

She's doing all the big cat things like using the water fountain and going outside in the cat run - To see her in action check out her web album http://picasaweb.google.com/dianegam

Introducing 6

Six is the sweetest little boy. He is a very dark mackerel tabby with a white tip and extra white mark on his tail. He has dramatic white eyeliner and lovely symmetrical blaze on his forehead. At the moment he has the loudest purr and is one of the most cuddly of all the kittens. He also can be a very playful boy as you can see by checking out his web album http://picasaweb.google.com/dianegam/MurlykaLitterDSix#
