This time we have 5 cats that needed a vet`s help. Usually we will put them together in the large cage, but since we do not know yet wether they are negative or positive for TF, we have to use one cage for each cat. And today Finn-Ove was not able to go with me    Thanks to Heidi, Diana and Hilde all cats came safely in to the vet`s office and back in the car again. This time was a routine visit - one of the very few visits during the last year that did not cause anxiety   All 5 needed to refresh their vaccinations, Vinnie needed to be tested for FIV/FeLV (we always do this before mating) and we wanted to check out Freja regarding her PYO. The vet could confirm that she is pregnant and there is no sign of a PYO or vaginitis   Vinnie behaved very well when they took the bloodsample from his right front leg, but he did not agree in a shot   I really like a vet that tries to get a bloodsample from the leg of the cat instead of the neck. Hilde did not even shave his leg before using the needle! Well done Hilde!

We have realized that it will not be any cat shows for us this year either. Even if the cats are tested negative for TF, we will not go to any shows   The simple reason is that we do not have a cat that can be shown...... Lion-O is moving in the beginning of June, the same is Bart and Prille. Freja is pregnant, Muffin needs to loose at least 1 kg, he is really fat     Puma is not in showcondition, Bumpy & Lina does not have a show quality, and S*Milliminas Disa is not moving to us as planned. Vinnie has really yellow eyes, so we will not show him at any cat show. We just have to wait for bether times - maybe next year? This means we will have three years without cat shows........ And for the first time we have booked plane tickets and hotel to go to SWS   But that`s life, things do not always be like we want them to be. Maybe this year we finally will be able to build the large cat-run we have planned since before we moved here?
