Dear mum, Dear Jo,
He is so sweet although Joe is not too keen about cats on the table but even he melted when he saw the picture! Zigg's is so dismayed that boudi won't play! She hisses when he gets too close but he keeps going back for more. When ever I open the back door boudi makes a dash out to get some peace! There was a breakthrough Joe & I witnessed earlier, little one was munching & boudi came in, walked straight over to him, touched noses for a few seconds, it was so sweet but then swiped him but not too hard! Pretty good for only 5 days, took her 3 weeks with Ozzie. You and jordan have done such a fantastic job, Joe was only commenting about that tonight, he wasn't convinced raggies would be anymore loving etc than other breeds but is so delighted to find they are. We think it also has a lot to do with your loving home environment & handling. Sending another photo I posted on face book called 'yummy', it's lovely! Take care honey, Love, Ali & zigg's

Hi Jo & Jordan,
Hi Jo, Glad you like the parrot video, how cute is he? Took a lovely pic of him on me in bed, think I sent it to you? It's a yellow tinge to is as taken with my iPad and they have no flash but you can still see how stunning zig's is! Noticed you sometime take the cats when owners are on holiday? Worried about next may when we go away for a week as taking joes mum as she would have had him! Do not want to put him a cattery and although neighbours come in twice a day to feed boudi I think he would be very distressed at being alone all day. Would it be difficult if you had him for us with him then being away from the other kitties for 10 months? Hope I'm not being cheeky in asking you but I know he would be so safe & loved by you both! It's a long way off of course. He was sleeping by the bed but just now lept up for a snuggle. It's like he knows I need a lot of love and affection after loosing our darling boy, Ozzie. I tell him all about his big brother who is his gardian angel all the time. It's bitter sweet at the moment, just wish Ozzie was here to play with him but had we not lost Him, we would never have met Ziggy. Very sad but very happy....you know what I mean! Big kisses from you little man xxxx Lv Ali x Hi Jo, Thanks for your reply. Hope alls well with you and yours? Yes zigs is very happy with us we think, it's always amazing me how he settled so quickly in his new home. He seems to be loving Joe at the moment and sits under his desk all day! He also has to have some contact with him by touching his foot to say 'I'm here!' even when Joe moves his foot he moves also, it's so sweet! As i am in bed a lot at the mo cos of illness, I have some crunchies and water in the bedroom for Ziggy, it's so sweet when he wants feeding , he goes and lays down by the bowls, v funny!! There was a very funny moment we saw yesterday when he launched himself at bodie flying thro the air on all fours like a flying bat! It would have been priceless had we got it on video..never mind sure there will be other occasions! Everyone who sees him, Even delivery men and postman love the zig master as he is so nosy when they knock and greets them at the door. They pick him up and are amazed how soft & cuddly he is. Most hav'nt heard of the breed but are amazed how floppy they are when picked up! Our friends who feed boudi when we are away, couldn't believe it when they met him yesterday. They are used to boudi! It was nice tho for them to see boudi was very relaxed around him, just tapping paws when zigs was teasing! Anyway take care and will send more pics soon. Ali xxx zigsxxxxxxxxxxooxooxxx Hi Jo, Just to say we can't believe how laid back Ziggy is around the house and will be sending you a video of him lying on the floor and hoovering around him, nothing bothers him, it's so funny! Got some new toys today and one being a lazer toy, he chases if so much he had to take a flop and rest half way thro! Good exercise for indoor cats. also got a cat harness & lead to try and if he likes it will get one of those jackets. There is funny clip on you tube, called ' this is why people don't walk cats,' I will send u a link, it's so funny! We Have a couple of lovely Bulgarian girls every two weeks to help me with the housework and they are smitten with him, taking videos and sending them home every time they are here. They can't believe how much he has grown everytime they see him. I have to frisk everyone on the way out as they all want to pinch him! Ha ha! Anyway Jo take care, lv Ali x & your boy zigs xxxxxooox Here is a montage of Ziggys little moments.
Hi Jo,
Hi guys, Thank you for your lovely Christmas greeting pics of zigs family, he was delighted as were we! He is embarrassed that he only managed a little red bow and badly at that! Will try later to dress up. Must get a hat for next year, where did you get the costumes they are soooo cute! He continues to hypnotise us every day, can't imagine life without him. Everyone loves him and most of the cab drivers I know adore him, taking photo's of him on their mobiles and saying they have never seen a cat like him in their life! My best friend Kim who helps me every Wednesday can't wait to see him, giving him kisses and cuddles. Always know she has been here as leaves lots of lipstick kisses on his head! Lol We are amazed how much Boudi loves him, they play all day, it's so funny! His latest trick is he appears on joes chest at 5am just before the alarm goes off, almost saying come on wake up, I want my grub!
Lots & lots of love from Ziggy bum xxxxoooxxo Ziggy's First Christmas...Aged 5 months old.
Hi Jo, Ziggy is at the vets having his neutering operation We can collect him at 4pm and say all is well, thank god! Joes been pacing the floor and saying " I miss the little fella so much Ali" even just for a few hours! The staff all love him and weighs 3.6 kg.....bloater!! One guy said "wow what a stunner you have there!" Joe was a very proud father! Let you know how he is tomorrow Lv Ali & Joe xx P.s. Boudi keeps looking for him, it's so cute, never seen that before! Ha ha! The main thing that Joe remembers about coming to your house was opening your living room And seeing little Raggi's draped over various furniture, but mainly his dad! He said the way he looked at him and came over to Gina, it was like " now that's my boy,,,,look after him" Lately Joe keeps saying zigs is really beginning to look like him, so your right! I comb him most days, mainly under the chin and he loves it, unlike poor little Ozzie who hated it and really needed it! Not only is he stunning looking, his personality is wonderful and so trusting. He still cries if he can't see us, like when Joe goes down to feed them and comes back up whist they are munching, after 5 mins you hear this pathetic little cry " where are you?" We call him and comes running to us every time bless him. He has these mad little moments where he dives up and down the stairs (3 flights of stairs) into my bedroom bounces off the wall almost, under the bed and out the door again to do the same about 3 times! So funny, I must try to catch it on film. On Monday boudi was on the window sill waiting to come in, when he saw her and took a long run at her and bounced off the glass, now that was priceless! Chat soon, Love Ali, Joe, boudi and Zigs xxxxxxxxxxx Hi Jo, I got the neutering form back today so will post it tomorrow if ok with you. Wanted to check it was completed correctly, so the vet Sent it back to me instead of you. Yes Ziggy is losing a bit of his coat as we notice some fluff around but nothing like ozzie's! Joe has been having massive cuddles in the mornings from Ziggy, not me,after the alarm goes off, in fact he puts it on 30mins earlyJust so he can do so! It starts his day off in a very good mood, thank god! Catch up soon, Love Ali, Joe ,boudi and of course darling lil Zigs! Xxxxxxxxxxxxxoooooooo

These Two Lil Girls Are Both Seal Colourpoints. Hi Jo,
Every night at around 9pm they wake up and start chasing each other in the whole apartment. They are so funny. Bella has worked out the noise of the front door and runs as soon as it opens! We have to watch her.
They both look so healthy and settled! They always look after each other; washing each other and calling for each other. We couldn't have asked for more they are magical!
If it is still ok with you we will drop the babies on Saturday 6th August at 2ish. Enjoy the photos attached; they move so much that it's getting difficult! :-) Take care; lots of kisses from Lily & Bella xxxx See you next week. Clarisse & Ian Hi Jo, I hope you are OK; we were wondering if lily and Bella have eventually settled down on Saturday and if they are being good girls? :-) Thank you ever so much for looking after them this week we know they are in the best place with you all. Take care and see you Sunday. Many kisses to the babies xxxx Clarisse and Ian Hi Jo and Jordan, I hope you had a good week with the girlies! We had a good and relaxing week but we have missed lily and Bella! We look forward to seeing and kissing them tonight! We should be at yours between 9 to 9:30pm tonight. See you later! Kisses to the babies Xxx Hi Jo,
Gald you like the card; I enjoyed putting it together! Glad you liked the french sweets & cakes; those caramel are awesome, i'm with you on that one! Thankyou so much for the photos of the babies with their mummy & daddy... they are beautiful! Speak to you soon. Kisses from the girls XXX
Hi Jo,
Hi Jo, Just to confirm that the babies will have their big girls operation on November 1st.
Hi Jo,
Hi Jo, Lily & Bella are doing fine; they've been checked by the vet a ouple of times since the operation and they are healing quite nicely. Bella has had couple of antibiotics shots and anti-inflamatory drops though; she's had some fluid building underneath her scar creating a lump. The vet reassured us that it sometimes happens especially in the case of very active kitten! That is certainly the case with Bella! The fluid should drain itself naturally as the healing process continues but to make sure she doesnt develop an infection she's had antibiotics.
Lily has been absolutely fine. She is so laid back. She is like a little fluffy bear demanding attention all the time! LOL I will take them back for their last check up on Thursday afternoon. Apart from that they have been fine in herself, eating well, playing and being very loving. Their temperature has been normal. Trying to keep them calm has been challenging! :-) I have attached few pix of the babies that I took at the weekend. I love Lily's little sleepy face but she is difficult to photograph always moving as you press the button to take the photo. I will send you another up-date at the weekend once we've seen the vet. Bella & Lily are sending you loads of kisses xxxxx Speak soon. Clarisse & Ian Hi Jo,
Hi Jo,
Hi Jo,
The car journey went without any issues; they slept most of the way!
They also enjoyed exploring the the big terrasse at my parents.
Hi Jo, I hope you are all well. I cannot resist sending you this pix Ian has sent me… Also to let you know we have received the papers; many thanks. Speak to you later. Clarisse Kisses from Lily & Bella xxxxxx
Hi Jo, I hope you are all ok. I thought I’ll forward you these two lovely photos of Lily & Bella. As you can see they are still very closed & loving. They are giving us so much joy & so much love. I have been trying to get another bed similar to the pink one but so far without success! I am one our 4th bed but they keep going back to the pink one! As they grown they cannot fit on just one but they won’t accept any other one! Never mind, Bella thinks our bed or my pillow is her bed anyway… They are growing into real beautiful cats; Lily has always been very cute & pretty but Bella has developed into a real beauty herself now. Lily likes to be cuddled like a baby; she stays in my arms for hours! Bella likes sitting on your lap, being fussed for hours & giving kisses. She also like cuddle underneath the duvet at 5am!!!! The best part is they are genuinely lovely cats with loving nature. They like being with us all the time; they follow us in every room. I cannot believe they will be 1 yo soon! Anyway I hope all is good with you all, that Pawscha, Eclipse & Romeo are doing well. Kisses from Lily & Bella xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Take care, Clarisse & Ian
Hi guys,
Bella jumps on their lap & settles (& demands attention rubbing her belly being one!).
They are all so gorgeous!
Gucci Snow Willow
Hi Jo I thought you would appreciate an email to let you know how little Willow is. She's just lovely - I'm so surprised over how relaxed she is in her new surroundings. She is in our bedroom at the moment and slept under the bed all night until 5.30am when she looked up at me from the floor, meowed, and jumped up to curl up next to me purring loudly. She has been exploring upstairs too and has spent some time with my boys in their rooms. Sometimes she likes to lie close to you and at other times just flops on the floor. She is eating, drinking and toiletting well with no problems at all. She's been having a mad half hour chasing toys and jumping on and off the bed at full pelt. We won't introduce Theo to her for several days but he has heard her meow and has been lying in the cat carrier we brought her home in, smelling it. It didn't seem to bother him too much. Thanks so much for letting us have her - she's going to be a much loved addition to the family. I'll email again soon and let you know how she's getting along. Best wishes Andrea Don't worry she is getting lot's of kisses. She's doing wonderfully, is very sweet and loveable & has been sleeping next to the laptop while I've been working on it this morning. She's now racing around after silver foil balls, a shoelace & toy mice. She makes lovely little funny noises when she's playing - so sweet! And, like your cats, she slides around the wooden floors. I've taken a few pics on my phone camera but they don't really do her justice & I must get some video. I'll send some when I've some decent ones. She hasn't met Theo yet but there is a good reason for that. Next week during half term we are visiting my Mum in Devon for a few days and Theo is going to the cattery. I didn't want to introduce her then after a few days put Theo in the cattery thinking a new cat had arrived and he's been sent away from home. Willow will be having an adventure as she'll be coming with us to Mum's. She has a nice new travel carrier, fleecy bed and new toys to take. When we return I'll begin the introductions. They can smell where each other has been already and it hasn't been too difficult to keep them apart. They have very different lives really as he's a real outdoor lover & often just drops by for food and a place to sleep if the weather's bad!! Although he'll be indoors more during the winter. There are no problems at all & she follows me around all over even if I try very quietly to sneak to the loo while she's asleep - she's there!! I hope her brothers are also doing well & I'll be in touch to let you know how her little 'holiday' went. Best wishes for now Andrea Hi Jo Willow is back from her little holiday in Devon which I'm pleased to say she thoroughly enjoyed. She travelled well in her new pink carrier and was a very good little girl at my Mum's, having a different home to explore. She's adorable, everybody thinks so, so loveable, playful and relaxed. She has now met Theo, although as yet, he is not too impressed!! He continues to hiss and grumble but has no complaints when he sneaks off to eat Willow's food!!!!! He mainly runs away from her when she slowly stalks him then bounds up to him from behind to play. She has started to roll on the floor in front of him making her sweet little 'guinea pig' noises as I like to call them. She just wants him to play and can't understand why Theo gives her a stare then walks off. I do hope as the days pass he'll become more amiable. He is a grumpy cat. Anyway Willow is not short of people to play with. She likes to play hide and seek on the stairs and loves to dart about chasing balls. She is with me now as she always is when I'm on the laptop, curled up on the desk. I've attached a few pics, not up to your quality I'm afraid, when I get chance I'll take some video and better photos. Most of them show just how relaxed she is!!!! Will be in touch soon Very best wishes Andrea, family & Willow x
Hi Jo & Co
Hi Jo & Jordan Sorry for the late reply - I'm just soooooooooooooo busy! Thanks so much for the lovely Xmas pics from Willow's Mum & Dad etc. What a nice surprise. I've printed them and they are amongst our Christmas cards. Willow is doing great & is very much enjoying helping to wrap presents and playing with the decorations. She still follows me everywhere and mieows frantically at times if she can't find me. Theo still doesn't like her much but they are very funny to watch as they do chase each other around the house and Willow lies down in front of him and pulls herself along the floor to see how close she can get before he runs off! She follows him about making lot's of little 'play with me' noises - so cute. Her fur is becoming much darker on her hind quarters and tummy. I'll update you with some more pics soon & I must sort out the video too - I haven't forgotten. Anyway for now, have a great Christmas, we will too, and a very happy new year to you all. I'll be arranging Willow's neutering after Christmas. With very best wishes Andrea, Willow & family xx Hi Jo & Jordan Hope you all had a good Christmas. Just a quick message to let you know that little Willow is booked in for spaying on Friday (13th Jan). It's a long time since I've had a female spayed and I'm sure I'll feel a bit anxious until I know she's ok & I'll miss her not being here for a few hours. It'll be nice that all the familiy will be around at the weekend to give her some TLC! She's really growing well & is happy and contented. I've just a couple of queries if you don't mind. Do you continue to feed your cats on Royal Canin & which do you recommend after kitten 36? She also has one wet meal (Royal Canin Instinctive) per day. Hope you like the pics. I'll be in touch again on Friday evening with an update. Take care for now, Andrea x Just to let you know that you'd never know Willow had had her op yesterday. It was hard to stop her from acting as normal - bounding around, jumping & climbing!! She was very happy to see me though when she came home. She's a little more sleepy today but I'm sure yesterday's extra energy burst must have taken it's toll. Us humans would never be like that!! Good for her. Best wishes for now. Hi Jo Hope you're well. I haven't forgotten about returning Willow's neutering certificate, I've been extremely busy :) I aim to get it in the post to you Monday or Tuesday. Please let me know when you receive it. Thanks Andrea
Raggucci Mowgli xxxxxx Gone to live with... Susan & Family xxxxxxxxxxx
Blue Colourpoint Male Hi Jo, Regards Susan
Hi Jo,
Mowgli is now sleeping on sofa in blanket and dog is laying outside enjoying sun. They both can go were they want. Mowgli likes running stairs and bedroom is ipen so he can also go there. He koves cat milk andsoft treats but is not eating much dry food, I have to stay with him and show then he eats a little. Can he have as much cat mik as he want?
Hi Jo, Hi Jo, Sorry for waiting so long for my email. It is going so well with Mowgli, that I can`t hardly believe it myself. He`s going on with Herby so good, they are really best friends. When Herby lays down to sleep, Mowgli goes directly to him and lays against him and also falls asleep. It is so sweet for to see:) I`m so happy that they like each other so much. When Herby comes back from his walk and lays down Mowgli is coming directly to him, lays down next to him and start to lick his wet porch clean. They are kissing each other and they can play crazy. Mowgly loves to play with his porch. He looks were Herby is, hide and then run and attack his porch. Mowgli jumps on him they run around grazy, it`s fun for to see. But sometimes they get too wild and then I have to stop them.
Mowgli is really settled in. He`s very sweet but can also be a little devil. He knows exactly what he wants. He loves his cuddles and like to be held. He`s also giving kisses and he still follows me everywere. At night we take him in the bedroom because otherwise Herby doesn`t get any rest. They have a big party when together. I have a basket for him on the bed, I put him in there bus as soon as the light is off he goes out and comes to me and likes to sleep on my arm or somewhere warm, so he can feel you. He keeps on prrrrrrr then very loud. He`s eating very well. I still spoil him too much :) He get`s some Felix meat over his dry food and cat milk both in the morning and evening. The rest of the day he has his dry food available and water, although he prefers to drink from the dogs bowl. He`s growing unbelievable.....so quick. We did make a lot of pics, But I need to ask my partner for the cable to download them, sorry for waiting so long.
He`s also becoming a little bit naughty now :) he`s climbing in the curtains and takes the soil out the plants. He`s quick as water. When Herby goes in the garden I have to take care because before I know he`s outside. He loves to be outside, he follows Herby everywhere. He climbs on everything and jumps from everywhere and when he thinks he`s in trouble he just cries like a baby and know I`ll come :)
I think it`s enough for now. I better stop because I can keep on talking about them.
Oh before I forget when does Mowgli need to be wormed again and when do I have to give him this treatment. P.s everybody says he is just like Dewey....... :) I also think that. Pics will come soon. Many xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx kisses and love from Mowgli Hi Jo, First sorry for not to being in touch for a while, but have been very busy. Everything is great with our baby Mowgli.... His big brother Herby and him love each other to bits. Please don`t worry about him. He`s doing so well. I`ll get back to you soon with a very long email and pictures. XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX and love from Mowgli.
Hi Jo, I hope you are fine and all the cats too and that you all had a lovely x-mas. I wish you all a very happy new year. Thank you very much for your x-mas greeting it was very nice. Sorry for not being in touch for some time, but we didn`t had internet for a while. Mowgli is doing very well. Getting naughty a little bit more, but I think that`s his age at the moment. he and herby are so lovely together they are playing, sleeping together, eating together, just being together all the time. They are both spoiled too much. They loved their x-mas. Opening all their presents, they really enjoyed it. And Mowgli enjoyed jumping in the tree and catching the balls. I`ll send you some pics. for the moment and send you some more later, with a longer email. Enjoy and lots of love from Mowgly to all of you kisses xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Speak to you soon, Susan Hi Jo, I hope you are all feeling better now and recovered from the flu. Thank you for letting me know that you like our dog too........ Yes he`s a very special and gorgeous dog. He`s so sweet and well behaving, specially for a Husky. Everybody is telling us how special he is and how good looking he is with his beautiful blue eyes :) even the vets..... But I still feel very happy and proud when I hear it again. Thank you for that. He`s still our "little baby". Yes Mowgli and Herby are so sweet together, they really love each other. Mowgli also had his Leukemia injections a few months ago I forgot to tell you that. They really loved him he was so relaxed. The woman who was helping me was also there when I had to put Dewey asleep :( So she knows the whole story and was very understanding because she also lost her kitten the same time with the same illness. She was very happy to see Mowgli, she loved him and said he looks like Dewey.... Mowgli has been to the vets on Wednesday to be neutered, To be honest I found it very difficult to do. He`s still so young and still a little baby...But lucky he`s ok. First he was a little bit quit and sleepy when he came home, but soon he started to play with Herby again and I have to watch now that they are not too wild....And I have to watch that he`s not licking his wound, but it`s already better. Herby was very sad when Mowgli was at the vets. He didn`t want to eat first. he was really missing him :) I`ll send you the vets papers of his neutering next week. I`m happy it`s over and that he`s neutered and ok, because I was worrying too much. I`ll send you next week an email with a video from them playing together. Funny Mowgli he`crying at the back door many times because he wants to go in the garden with herby he doesn`t understand why he`s not allowed now. He has to stay inside for about one week. Lots of love and kisses xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx from Mowgli to all of you.

Gone to live with... Cat, Si & Pepsi Blue xxxxxxxxxxx
Hi Jo and Jordan, We just wanted to send a little update on how the girlies are settling in. Well they seem to really like their activity centre and have even established the tallest laying spot as their bed! Pepsi occasionally prefers to sleep under the single sofa bed, but has stopped hiding there when we entre the room which she did on the first day...bless. They are both playing, eating, drinking and using the toilet well and even treat us both to a bit of a purr and a cuddle occasionally. We've introduced the scent of the dogs which to start with caused great excitement followed by a big play session but now only warrants the occasional sniff! They are enjoying all the toys, but the tissue gift wrapping is a big hit and of course the wand! (5555555554rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr - that's a message from Tilly who's just walked across the keyboard!) Well that's it for now. I've taken some (awful) photos with my phone which I'll send in a separate email. Speak soon, Cat, Si, Tilly and Pepsi x Hi Jo and Jordan,
This was taken just a moment ago and thought you might like to see it. As you can see the introductions are going very well and the girls are very happy. Speak soon, Cat and Si (xx from the girls)
Hi Jo & Jordan, the girls are growing fast! They are very lively! They enjoy playing with their brothers and cuddling up with them for nap time. Tilly even sleeps next to them on her back sometimes copying them! Funny and cute! They are very good girls. They have learned not to come into the kitchen when the door is open and stand patiently waiting for us to fetch their ball when it happens to roll in to the kitchen. They are very clever. Hi Jo,
Hi Jo & Jordan, Will let you know how they're doing afterwards. They're getting bigger now so it's a bit of a tight squeeze in their tower but they still love their cuddles together! Hi Jo & Jordan, They keep trying to back out of them and they really struggle to get up the stairs (funny). But I'll happily ask for what ever you need. Hi Jo & Jordan,
Hi Jo and Jordan,

Gone To Live With... Maariyah, Yusuf & Family xxxx
Hi Jo, She was hiding behind the sofa a little, but she has been exploring too. Hi Jo, Well it's a new day today she has eaten and drank lots of water, which makes me really happy :) Last night she really came out of herself and was so playful... a bit to playful really :) we slept at 3.50! So I might try to settle her downstairs tonight if she takes to it. She has made friends with my eldest daughter, who set her alarm for 5 in the morning, so she could play with her before she goes to school :) Laila actually ventured into the twins bedroom and was running rings around their legs, like she had known them all her life! :) She didn't at all like me wiping her down with cat wipes though, but I surpose that will take time. It's just that she has been so good, I forget I have not had her long. I can't imagine life without her now, I love her so much and my first priority now is to keep her happy and comfy... as I do my kids :) Let me know if you have any tips on how to wipe her down easier... I shall definitely wear a thick polo neck jumper next time, coz she used me like a scratch post ;) Thanks for getting back to me Jo, I really appreciate it :) Keep in touch, love Maariyah. Hi jo, sorry have not been able to get back to you. Laila is well she is eating and drinking well and is her normal happy, playful self.
I will be taking her back to the vets soon to have her microchip And will let you know how we get on:) thanks for getting in touch.
phew it has been a hell of a week!! Laila is well, she's gained weight :) Laila has fitted right into the family, loves all the attention and would much rather sit on some ones lap than on the floor:) she is still a little intimidated by the boys but doesn't hide from them or any thing. We love her and can't imagine our family without her now! Thanks to you. I hope you guys have a great Christmas. Keep in touch! Laila gives her love:). Love Maariyah.
I hope you are well. Lailah has been very well but recently she has been making strange noises due to her being in season, as advised by the vet. we arranged for her to be neuter and as it happens, she was neuted today at Barrajos and it has all gone well, i believe. I will ask Maria to give you a call. Regards, Yusuf hello jo, Just letting you know about lailah, she has grown quite a bit since you last saw her picture she is a little madam, but an absolute joy to have around. she has made great friends with all the kids specially my 5 year old daughter, they love each other so much and its really nice to see lailah so at ease with the kids, although the boys can intimidate her sometimes she now knows all the places where they cant reach her, so she runs circles around them and doesnt let anyone boss her around:) We have got her neutered yeterday at Borrajos Veterenary Clinic in Birstall, she is back home with us now and im trying my level best to get her to take it easy and rest it out, she was really excited to be back home from the vets yesterday and started running around and jumping all over the place, but ive made a little hot water bottle for her and she is sat right next to me snoozing:) she has not been sick after the anesthetic or any thing yet but im only giving her a little amount of food and water at intervals for the next day or so since thats what the vet advised me to do. I hope you guys are doing well. She has got her follow up appointment at the vets on thursday so i will keep you posted on her recovery after that, ill send you picture of her in another email that will follow this one from my phone. take care jo and our regards and love to all your family and kittys:) we will always be gratefull to you for giving us our Laila who has become an important and very loved member of our family!! lots of love Maria.
Hi Jo, I hope you are good, Laila has had her follow up appointment at the vets, they said her wound looks like it's drying nicely :) She is getting back to her normal self now and we are releived to have had it done!! Thank you for all your support and keep in touch Love Maariyah & Laila xxx
Hi jo hope you are all well. We are all doing great, laila is getting back to her normal self now and the fur on her stomach has grown back. I had seen my friends Zain's cat (the kitten you sold to them) barakah a few weeks ago, she is beautiful! - a lot fatter than laila so I took her to the vets to have her weighed and measured. Since she is the first cat in our family I really have no idea as to what a six month old kitten should weigh and stuff, any how they told me that her weight is good and she is nice and lean which was a relief:) also I wanted to ask you if it is still ok with you for us to leave her with you when we go on holiday. We are going on the 30th march and will be back on the 20th April.

Gone To Live With... Zain & Family xxxxxxx
Hi Guys
Hi Guys Hi Guys Hi Guys Hi Guys I was not able to make the appt with the vet as I had to travel to Dubai. I will be making a new appt this week and will keep you informed. Barakah is doing very well and growing up quickly. We are all extremely pleased and happy with her. Will forward pics too! Regards Zain Hi Guys Hope you have heard from Maariyah re Lailah. I am travelling again on 19th March and Barakah will have to stay at a cattery for 10 days or so. I have not decided which one yet...any recommendations? Barakah has been booked in for neutering at Bell, Brown and Bentley on London Road on my return, Mon 5th March. Regards Zain Hi Guys Barakah has been neutered on Mon 5th March as has become her normal self very quickly. Please advise of correspondence address so can forward receipts and paperwork to you. Do you require originals or are copies okay? We ended up keeping her with the Inlaws instead of cattery where she has been very happy. Regards Zain Raggucci Tipx xxxxxxxx Gone To Live With... Stacey & Sydnee xxxxxxxx Hello Jo, First thing I would like to say is thank you for holding on to Tipx for me that little bit longer . Thought I would let you know how Tipx settled in, in the car at first he was crying a little so Sydnee thought she would look in on him as she did he put his paw out and got her nose lol after about 5min he went to sleep. When we got home I let him out of his carrier and he come out right away and there was no stopping him he was into everything even went into his goodie bag. He hasnt met the dogs yet I thought I would let him settle in a few more days before I do that to him but he has been on their beds so he knows their smells. He follows me everywhere when I was cooking dinner he sat there watching me . He spent the night on Sydnee's bed and we didnt hear a peep out of him untill we got up. He has eaten and drunk well since last night, he has used his litter box so all seems good so far, he loves his toys esp the hat he rolls about in that he is so funny to watch. He has lots of cuddles and he has been purring so that makes me feel better knowing he is happy esp after leaving his family. Sydnee is one happy little girl and is over the moon with him I had to bring him out to her school bus this morning to show everyone . Thank you for our baby boy and for giving us the chance to own this wonderful breed. Stacey, Sydnee and lots of love & purrrrs Tipx...xxxx

I hope in some ways I can get it out the ways. Speak soon Stacey Hello Jo, I thought I would let you Know my poor little boy is in the vets at this moment in time being neutered :-( I will send you the neutering certificate the vet has signed and stamped for you asap. At least he has been done better sooner than later and its out the way poor little might . I will let you know how he is when he is home. Stacey
Hello Jo , This vets usely do kittens at 5 half months but coz Tipx was the right weight for the op and had both his balls they went ahead with it. You can call them to see if they can help you with what you want. This is a link to the vets I have gone to http://www.vets4pets.com/ I have gone to the one in Oadby (this link is to the vet I went to ->)http://www.vets4pets.com/find-a-practice/vets4pets-oadby/ but there might be one closer to you have a look.. Yesterday I called around all the vets to see how young I could get him neutered and how much it would be and then bingo this vets done it for me . I have posted the paper work to you and I will let you know later how Tipx is bless him . Everyone fell in love with Tipx there they said he was such a good boy and well behaved bless him he is back home with me now I picked him up at 2pm he is as lively now as he was this morning when I took him to the vets lol he got out of his box and started to play with his toy mouse lol then run up stairs to get something to eat.

Im so glad he has had it done now as its all out of the way and I dont have to put him though it again bless him. Speak to you soon Stacey & a very sore Tipx
Hello Jo, Tipx is a very brave boy he has done so well after his op he has had lots of cuddles fuss and treats he is still a crazy little boy, he thought he would be very helpful with getting the clothes out of the tumble drier lol and got into it to play with the tumble balls lol.. he loves to watch my parrot and she always swears when he gets to close to her (nice bird lol) she is now calling his name so he comes running thinking its me calling him lol or if she meows he thinks its another cat calling him he runs to try and find it but never does- looks rather puzzled bless him.. He met the dogs for the first time the other day I cant beleive how brave he was he walked up to my biggest and sniffed him and when Chops sat up to see what it was Tipx just looked at him to say what you gonna do about it lol not a hiss or a puff to try and make himself bigger I couldnt beleive my eyes I dont think it will be to much longer before he will get into their beds to sleep with them . He is one big fuss pot he follows me around the house meowing if he thinks I havent seen him he has even tried to get into the bath with me (I dont think he will like it very much ) every so often I would see 2 paws and 2 big blue eyes looking at me lol he did find a place where he was happy to sit and watch me in the end. Talk to you soon Stacey Lots of purrs from Tipx.xxxxxx Hello Jo & Jordan, I'm as ready as I can be now for christmas thanks .. Hope you are ready for it? Tipx is doing really well, we went down south to see my family today and Tipx come out for the day with us the family loved him Tipx was such a good boy he had lots of little girls to play with him and when he had enough he sat on the back of the sofa to sleep (he love to sleep on the top of my sofa at home one of his fav sleep spots). As much as he loved to play with all the other kids today I think he enjoys the quite life at home as when he got home he went to his fav place in front of the fire and went to sleep . The family couldnt beleive how well behaved he is and how loving he is .. He goes out for little walks everyday and has started to want to go futher now,(thats sydnee's job) you know when he wants to go for a walk coz he will meow at the front door ,he still is a very brave boy with the dogs and doesn't mind them at all . Where I am Tipx is its like me and my shadow lol the amount of times Ive triped over him lol.. We wish you all a very merry chirstmas and wish you the very best for 2012.

I thought I would send you some photos of Tipx , he is doing really well a very spoilt boy lol he follows me around like he hasnt seen me all day he talks all the time in facted he never shuts up lol he has always got something to say for himself I think he likes the sound of his own voice lol he knows the sound my car makes as I pull up and I can hear his meows as Im getting out of the car . We have tried him on kitten milk just as a treat but he dosent like it so the dogs enjoyed it lol He met Speedy our rabbit for the first time today at first he wasnt sure what to make of him and then he thought it was good to stalk Speedy and give chase (poor Speedy) Tipx thought it was fun. :-)) Tipx loves a fuss he is one big fuss puss but at the sametime he is very independent and wants to do things his way or not at all. Take care Hope to talk to you soon Stacey ,Sydnee and lots of meows Tipx.xxxxx I thought I would drop you a line to say how little man is doing ... well he is getting really big he is a right fuss pot, he loves nothing more than to sit by the fire when he isnt doing that he is meowing in my ear lol (never shuts up) or helping Sydnee with her laptop but when he has done helping her he will curl up on her bed next to her and goes to sleep untill I call Sydnee then he comes downstairs with her to see what he can get to eat (he loves his food) .... he loves Sydnee to bits he knows when her school bus is out side as he will sit on the arm of the chair meowing for when she walks in the door and follows her up satirs while talking away to her lol.. I did take him into the garden when we had snow he wasnt a happy boy and couldnt wait to get by his warm fire place he did have a lot to say to me when out in the snow and beleive me if I could of understood him im sure he would of been calling me afew names (not nice ones either lol) I wouldnt mind we wasnt out in it long 1-2 min.

Raggucci Eva xxxxxxxxx Gone to live with... Claire & Adam
Hi Jo, Hi Jo, Hi Jo, Hi Jo, Hi Jo, We love Eva's colouring she is stunning, so we would like one similar but with something distinguishable so a mitted would be lovely. So if you could keep us updated that would be great. xxxx Hi Jo,
She was absolutley fine, thought she'd be groggy for a day or two but picked her up and she was running about again within a couple of hours. She has a big bold patch tho lol. Hi Jo, Hi Jo,
Seal point mitted male Hi Jo, Yeah Eva is much lighter now than she was, her colouring is beautiful. We are looking forward to seeing him, he's going to be so tiny compared to Eva now. I just hope she motheres him and doesn't decide and bully him like she did the dog lol. I was wondering would it be ok for them to share the litter tray? Its just we have an enclosed self cleaning one that is really big but I wanst sure if they need there own? I'll get him his own bed and everything else. Look forward to hearing from you soon Claire x Hi Jo, Just a quick email to see how our little boy is doing? We're still stuck for names but i'm sure we'll think of one soon. Would there be any chance of seeing him within the next few weeks? Eva is doing fine, we have just bought her a massive play den with scratching posts and dangly bits on it so thats keeping her well entertained. Its pretty tall too so she loves climbing up sitting right on the top. Hope you and all the kittens are doing well:-) Claire Hi Jo, Thank you very much for the pictures they are lovely. Glad he is well even though a bit nutty lol. Hope the vets went ok too :-) Yeah Eva is doing well, eating us out of house and home at the moment, think she is having a growth spirt. I think she'll love having someone to play with, sooo looking forward to it. Though we may have moved house by that time hopefully. Speak soon, Claire x Hi Jo, Thank you very much for the pictures, I love them, he looks so adorable! He looks so grown up. Would it be possible to pick him up next Monday? We get the keys to our house on Friday so that gives us plenty of time to move all our stuff in, should be done by end of the weekend. I will let you know a time in the next couple of days, when I find out my shift at work. But will probably be in the evening if thats ok with you. So excited about bringing him home. Claire x Hi jo, iv sent a few pics and videos of eva. Can't remember if I sent these ones or not. I will definatley get lots of pics of Oscar and Eva together. Hopefully they will get along very well and I'm hoping Eva will mother him. Eva is extremely loving at the moment too.
As soon as I sit down she is on my lap snuggling up, and following me round all day. Raggucci Oscar

Emily, Ashley and Hendrix xx
Hi Jo We have arrived safely at our new home! We have been doing lots of exploring and playing with the lovely toys you gave us in our goody bag! We have been eating our dry food and have just had our milk. We are so tired after a long day we have fallen fast asleep on the sofa. We will email you again in the week when we have spoken to our new vet. Lots of Love piccolo & Hendrix xxxxx Hi Jo We met our new vet yesterday and she was very nice. The vet even gave us a goody bag with a bouncy ball in! We spend our day sleeping, eating, chasing each other, wrestling, eating, chewing Ashleys feet, sleeping, eating, playing with our toys and sleeping!! We will email you again soon, send our love to our Mummys and Daddy, Piccolo & Hendrix
Hi Jo- Hope you are well!! They’re so gorgeous we are so pleased with them!! Another question for you…Biggles, the older ragdoll isn’t too happy that we have new arrivals! Its not the end of the world as he lives next door with Ashleys parents, so they do not need to ever come into contact, but it would be so much easier if they all got on! Then we could have them together when Ashleys parents go on holiday, and have them go between the two houses. Do you have any advice on how to stop him being so territorial and accept them? We were very surprised when he saw them and hissed!! Ash & Em x x Hi Jo The boys are doing very well. They really are the best of friends, always sleep next to each other, groom each other and it is so cute when the cuddle!! Sometimes when they sleep they have their arms around each other!
They are having great fun playing with each other and they still love to wrestle! They have both grown so much! They are now both eating us out of house and home!! They still love their whiskas treats and their milk. Piccolo has become very affectionate and constantly has to be on my lap or on my shoulder! Its very bizarre but he likes to think he is a parrot and is very good at keeping my neck warm! He has developed the most striking blue eyes and his colouring is really showing in his tail now and around his ears. He is the crazy cat and charges around the room and has a habit of chasing shadows on the floor?! ?He also likes to climb and I recently had to get him down after climbing 5 foot up the curtains!! Strangely Hendrix who used to be the crazy cat has calmed down a lot. He sleeps a lot now and isn’t as hyperactive as piccolo. He still likes to play with his toys and wrestle though! He likes to sleep next to us and is definitely a Daddy’s cat, as he doesn’t leave Ashley’s side when he gets in from work. I have spoken to the vet about neutering. We want to make sure that we get them done before they start spraying. We will probably look at either getting Hendrix done at the beginning of December and piccolo the beginning of January or getting them both done at the same time around Christmas. The Vet said she could microchip them at the same time as neutering. We have been slowly introducing them to biggles, he had a bit of a hiss at them, and didn’t show any interest and kept leaving the room to sulk for a while. The only aggression he has shown is hissing but after a while he gets bored and usually walks away. Progress is very slow but I’m hoping he will accept them soon. I’ve attached some pictures of the boys! (Hendrix is much harder to photograph as he doesn’t stay still! But I will send some pictures again soon.) Lots of Love Ash & Em x Hi Jo.
the vet has said that she will look at getting the boys neutered just before xmas, so will keep you updated! hope your well and ready for xmas- we've decided not to have a tree for fear of what the kittens will do to it! xx Hi Jo Ihope you are well. Sorry I've not been in touch for a while- Ashley has been very ill and was In hospital all over Christmas. He is still on the mend, but getting better every day! Piccolo and Hendrix are doing very well! Hendrix was neutered & microchipped on the 28th December and Piccolo was done on the 1st of February. They both are lovely kitties, very well natured and affectionate. Piccolo is very much a lap cat and also loves to sit on your Shoulders!! He is adorable and loves to cuddle up on your lap with his blanket and toy mouse! Hendrix is still very mischievous! :) He likes to pull all his bedding out of his bed and spread it across the floor. He also likes to take his food out of his bowl and eat it off the floor. He is a bit more independent and whilst he loves cuddles and being around us, he does not demand attention all the time like Piccolo :) They have both grown so big! (Hendrix In particular, with him being older) I have sent you photographs and letters from the vet. I hope your cats and kittens are all well. I took the kitties outside for a little while and surprised them! They loved it looking around the garden, but still stayed close as they were unsure! Maybe in the summer they will be out a bit more. Speak soon, lots of love Emily & Ashley :) xx
