PANDORA'S BABIES

    BITZAGLITZ KITZIE (PANDORA) GAVE BIRTH BY C SECTION ON MAY 17 TO 7 BEAUTIFUL SNOW & BROWN MARBLES. I AM CURRENTLY HAND REARING THESE LITTLE DARLINGS, SO WILL BE POSTING FURTHER INFO WHEN THEIR FUTURE IS MORE SECURE.

  UPDATE MAY 31. AFTER A HEARTBREAKING STRUGGLE, 3 OF PANDORA'S BABIES HAVE SURVIVED THUS FAR. THANKS TO ALL THE FOLKS WHO HAVE GENEROUSLY SUPPLIED US WITH ADVICE & A SHOULDER TO CRY ON IN THE WEE HOURS OF THE MORNING. I WOULD ALSO LIKE TO SAY THAT THE ONE PIECE OF EQUIPMENT I WASN'T TOLD ABOUT BUT FOUND MOST IMPORTANT IS MY DARLING HUSBAND, WITHOUT WHOM I COULD NOT HAVE COME THIS FAR. HE HAS REARRANGED HIS LIFE ( & SLEEPING PATTERN!!) TO COME TO THE AID OF THESE LITTLE DARLINGS AND HAS FELT THE JOY & PAIN OF THIS JOURNEY RIGHT ALONG SIDE OF ME. THANK YOU, BABE. YOU ARE TRULY A STAR.

 UPDATE JUNE 8. WELL FOLKS ONE BABY MADE IT BUT BOY IS SHE A CORKER. HAVING BEEN DOUBLE THE SIZE OF HER SIBLINGS SINCE BIRTH, OUR MAGNIFICENT MILLICENT (NAME CHANGE, LOTS OF LATE NITES, FINALLY FOUND THE PURRRRFECT NAME FOR HER!!) IS A FABULOUS CHARACTER ALREADY AT 3 WEEKS OF AGE. SHE COMES TO THE SIDE OF HER BED EVERY MORNING & INFORMS ME IN NO UNCERTAIN TERMS THAT IT IS TIME FOR HER BREAKFAST, HAS A LITTLE WANDER ABOUT THE PEN IN THE LIVING ROOM, & PURRS HER LITTLE HEAD OFF WHEN YOU LET HER CUDDLE UP IN YOUR HAIR.

  My little darling lost her fight on July 19. I loved her as did everyone she touched. Goodnight, sweet Millie. You are missed.
