Kittens !


Hannah had been waiting impatiently for months but finally the big day arrived.   Time to choose her new kitten!


The kittens were now 2-3 months old, so we could now visit them at the cattery.  Glam-Rex (link), is actually not far from us, in Tai Po district in a village towards Plover Cove.   It was nice to see Chrissie and Ree again.


And lots of fun to play with a roomful of lovely cats and kittens.  


Over the last six months Hannah has earned enough credits ('smilies') to get one kitten.   And since we can only keep 'non allergy' cats, we had to get a Cornish Rex.


This is Jayden, who was offered to us at a very reduced price because his eyes had been slightly discolored by an eye infection, so he is unable to compete in cat competitions.   


I thought Jayden was a lovely kitten.  Even before he started to groom me.


And Jayden seemed to like us too.


Chrissie was concerned that Jayden might get lonely on his own, and we were soon looking for kitten #2.   She suggested Kura, who is apparently a show-quality pure-breed Cornish Rex.  (Although with that mustache I'd be cautious showing him in Germany or Israel).


Kura was another lovely kitten and we quickly warmed to him.    He needs another 6 weeks growing up with his mother before we can take him home.  So we arranged to pick up both cats in August after Rika and Hannah return from summer holidays


I hope Minimi will like his new nephews.
