Two Cats Missing...

It's a quiet day today. Indigo is still at stud, and Theo (the handsome gentleman on the right) is having a day at the vets, while they try to collect a urine sample. Theo has had several recent bouts of sickness with no apparent cause, a blood test yielded no answers so more tests are on the cards- an ultrasound and possibly an endoscopy (I think!) to try and work out what's upsetting him. Poor Theo!

Sofia and Ava, my moggies, are making the most of the peace and quiet by napping on the couch whilst I work. Theo is nearly as old as them (which isn't very old, all of my cats are currently under three years) but much more kittenish in his behaviour and would normally be stirring things up a bit, like a typical little brother.

Indigo is doing OK. When I left her at the stud's she was hidden under a blanket, refusing to come out, and there she stayed for the first 24 hours. This isn't at all uncommon, especially with a queen going to stud for the first time, but of course I've been worried. However, the stud owner telephoned me last night to say she'd come out of the bed, had a good look around and was happy to let the stud sniff and chirrup at her without any hissing, swiping or hiding. No action yet, but hopefully that will be the next step.

I am missing her though.
