Little “clean-up” break :)


Little “clean-up” break :)

Soon we are about to finish our cats little "regeneration break", that we've had for last couple of months. During that time we managed to deal with few issues that needed our attention (we'd mentioned some in previous post HERE). It's hard to plan anything for a breeding female in the cattery. There are many things that get in the way - pregnancy, nursing, recovery time from kittens, heats etc. If not those, there are also control tests, vaccinations, after which they also need some time to recover.... That's also the reason why…Read more
Boys from litter T in their new homes


Boys from litter T in their new homes

Some time ago we've received news & photos about our boys from littrer T. Kittens started to leave us late April. Teo was the first one to goto his new home. With this one - everything stays in the family, as he got to live with our godson and his parents.  TEO Teo stayed in Bydgoszcz and so we got to see him while his first deworming since he left us. He settled very quickly at new place. He already has his favourite places to play and nap. One of his best spots…Read more

Control test and annual health check of cats – 2018

 FIV & FeLV tests Thai Cattery Viosna*PL is free from Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV) and Feline Leukemia Virus (FeLV) - dangerous infectious diseases.

 Regular health check in cat – why even bother writing about it?


Regular health check in cat – why even bother writing about it?

Last months have been very intense for use due to many reasons... to be able to write about it I will have to split my summary in few posts. I'll start with annual veterinary health check. But first I will explain why I even mention that. Test results will be presented in another post. Unfortunatley it is believed that cats are generally healthy and don't get sick. And if something is going on - it's owners/breeders fault. That's a myth - both about cats health as a cause of troubles. Many stereothypes comes…Read more
Helen’s New Tittle


Helen’s New Tittle

Before we went on holiday, we've gone with Helen and Cody to a cat show in Radom in June. We wanted to make it with collecting diplomas for Helens' new title, before we have another kittens. She only lacked one more with excellent note, to be called a Grand International Champion. We also took Cody with us, so that she's not alone during the show. Regarding the busy time before our holiday (and also end of school year at school were I taught) we only made it to attend one day of the show…Read more

New members of the kitten-nursery-school

In March, on one of my shifts I was visited by one my regular customer - an older lady, Mrs Zosia. She came to the clinic before with her cats who were ones of the oldest cat patients and lived approximately around 20 years. Now she shares her home with two young male kittens. She also feeds stray cats on her backyard - one of them is a young female. During winter Mrs Zosia gave her a shelter in her basement where she was kept warm, well fed and safe from other cats…Read more
Review from International Cat Show in Toruń – February 2018


Review from International Cat Show in Toruń – February 2018

A month ago we went on International Cat Show in Toruń with Cody. We've had some concerns about it as we had kittens who were only 3 weeks old. We didn't want to bring any "unwanted surprise". But we also cared that Cody gets his first Champion title so kittens can have it in their pedigree. We promised ourselves to take any precaution to lower the risk to minimum. There is always veterinary control, rented cages are previously desinfected, judges and stewards desinfect also hands and tables between cats to decrease infection risk.…Read more

PRobably not so easy deliveRy

On Monday 15th of January I had to be at work as usual. Unfortunately there was no chance to change shifts with a friend. So I left for work to start at 3 p.m.. As soon as I reached work I got a call from Tomek that Elmas waters broke. The only thing I could do was to keep my fingers crossed so our previous experiences are enough so he can handle it on his own. So far Tomek had to take care of only one delivery by himself. It was with litter…Read more
