4 Weeks Old… how time flies! (video & piccies)
Posted by Jacq in Kitten News on September 10, 2010
The kittens are flying around the place! They’re eating solid food now, which is a huge relief because Snowball’s milk was drying up and we were having to supplement with a bottle.
The kittens are colour-coded so we can tell them apart, so we call them by their colour codes. White is, obviously, white. The three blue kittens are blue, pink and purple. Purple and White are males and Blue and Pink are females.
Pink is the sweetheart of the litter. Super-friendly, she always wants human attention. They’re all friendly, but only Pink races to the door to greet us!
White is a loner and doesn’t play with the other kittens as much. Just a quieter kitten, but he loves his cuddles.
Blue and Purple are adorable slobs. They love to sleep and eat.
Pink and Blue appear to have the most promise as far as type is concerned, so anybody looking for a show kitten will want one of the girls.
Now, pictures!

No piccies of White kitteh, he just wasn’t in the mood for modelling today!
Midlands Cat Show — Best in Show!
Today at the Midlands Cat Club show in Limerick, our Labrys Warrior Princess (Xena) took Best In Show overall! There was some amazing competition so we were not only thrilled but very surprised.
And we didn’t have our camera. We only have phone pictures, so we’re hoping some other people took pics!
UPDATED! Here’s her critique by judge John Hansson
Orange Eyed White British Adult, Female;
1st CC & BOB. CALLAN & RUSSELL’S LABRYS WARRIOR PRINCESS.
18-02-09. Quite simply gorgeous, might still have a bit of growth & development to achieve but exactly where one would expect & hope she would be given her very young age. Beautiful head, rounded open expression, well filled & rounded on the cheeks, broad muzzle, brow rounds to short nose, very good chin & bite. Ears are small & well placed, creating a neat tidy appearance which fitted beautifully into the head shape. Eyes large well open round shape, bright vivid orange colour, gorgeous expression. Body still acquire the development that full maturity will no doubt bring, but is compact & cobby & so beautifully proportioned, excellent legs & paws, tail well balanced moderately heavy & very good medium length. Wonderful coat, short & dense with a superb degree of crispness which you just wanted to scrunch beneath your fingers. Her coat was clean sparkling beautifully prepared without the merest hint of any yellowing or staining, quite splendid. Her condition was quite superb & her temperament wonderfully confident yet incredibly gentle, a real quality find, later Best British to be followed by Best Overall in spite of very tough competition.

Here’s a pic of her taken at the show:
