Tomorrow we are off to the vet`s, I think this is something like our home away from home    We are bringing 3 of the cats - Puma, Løven and Muffin. Puma & Løven(Lion-O) are going to check out how much they weigh since we have decided to treat them a 3rd time with Ronidazole. This decision did not come easy, we have discussed it for a time and read more about the treatment for TF. There was two heavy arguments for doing this a third time, the first is that we have discovered that the weights of the cats for the first treatment was not accurate. They were treated with a dose that was not high enough, and that can be the reason why they did not get rid of this the first time. Our cats was devided into 3 groups when testing after the first time except Prille and Freja who was tested one and one. Puma and Muffin was one group, Bart and Honeybump another and Vinnie, Løven and Lina in the third group. All three groups tested positive, but there is a possibility that only one of the cats in each group was positive and hat might be Løven, Puma and Honeybump. In the sample for Honeybump and Bart it was nearly positive and the second time around may have killed the paracites. In the second treatment with Ronidazole I got the medicine from another breeder and we made the capsules ourselves. But the Ronidazole was only 10%   and that could be the reason Puma and Løven still has this shit. So we`ll try again, and we are crossing our fingers for a success this time! We are going to import Ronidazole from USA this time  


Muffin is going to the vets for his annual vaccine, a health certificate and to be neutered. Last week we had a visit of a couple who have a lavender oriental boy on 3 years, his companion died a while ago and now they wanted to have another cat. The first oriental cats they have had was a balinese, and they are so in love with this breed that they wanted a balinese this time. Muffin did what he always does when we have visitors, he ran down the stair as fast as he could and greeted them a lot. Birgit, the "mother" of the cats, carried him upstairs   So if everything goes as planned, Muffin will move to his new home this weekend. Oh my we are going to miss this super boy! But he will have a a really nice life together with Riko and his family. They live on the countryside, and the cats are allowed to go outside. We think that will be something Muffin will appreciate a lot, he is so curious and love to follow everything we do.


Freja has a rounded, sweet tummy and Saturday is her day no. 60. So sometime next week we could have kittens again! I do not think she has more than 4, maybe only 3 even her belly is at the same size on both sides. But a litter of 3 or 4 is nice for a first time mother.

Today it was time for my biggest challenge for several years    I have been at Oslo Airport Gardermoen to deliver Prille and Bart to their new owners. Thanks to good help from the staff at the airport in Bodø and at Gardermoen, I managed what I was supposed to do. So now the boys are sleeping in their new homes, we wish both the boys and their new families the best of luck and a happy, long life together!


It seems like Muffin also has got a new home, he will move next weekend if everything goes as planned. Time will show
