KittensRussian Blue kittens - brother and sister cuddling up

I like to give my kittens my full attention so only plan for a couple of litters a year. They are all born in my bedroom (and occasionally on my bed…) and home-reared, so they are used to normal family life. All Dushenka kittens have excellent pedigrees and are registered with the Governing Council of the Cat Fancy (GCCF) on the non-active register, as I usually only let my kittens go to loving family homes and not for breeding. They are fully vaccinated, wormed, frontlined, neutered where possible and health-checked by my vet before they leave home, usually at 14-15 weeks old, and never younger than 13 weeks old - as per the GCCF Code of Ethics. I expect new owners to take as good care of my kittens as I have, and love them as much or more.

I am delighted to say that both Lucy and Sophie's kittens continue to thrive - if you have emailed me recently about kittens I will get back to you in the next few days, although there has been a lot of interest in these babies.  It's been very busy around here!  You can see photos of both here: Lucy's babies and Sophie's babies.

 

You can see photos and progress reports of some of my more recent litters on my girls' pages:

Cat brooch from St Michael's Monastery, Kiev

Hear our prayer, Lord, for all animals,
May they be well fed and well treated and happy.
Protect them from hunger and fear and suffering.
And, we pray, protect specially, dear Lord,
The little blue cat who is the companion of our home.
Keep her safe as she goes abroad
And bring her back to comfort us.

(Traditional Russian prayer)
