Blue Chocolate Snowshoe Kittens

Unfortunately Gretel has had a little accident last week and has subsequently missed the TICA show in Leicester on the 31st May. I'm just happy that she's OK.

She managed to jump onto a metal shelf in the kitchen and hang herself by her leg! Luckily we were in the next room and rescued her within seconds. The vet was worried that she had a fracture but it quickly turned out to be a sprain, thank god. I have had a few sleepless nights watching over her.

She is a very good patient! The vet didn't even charge us for the second visit- I think it's because she has a soft spot for Gretel. She had a little trouble examining her because all she could do was purr and roll around on the examining table.

The shelving has now been moved out of her way, in addition to removing toys with string before we leave the room, unplugging all appliances so she doesn't tie herself up, checking the toilet lid is always down at all times etc, etc.

Snowshoes are definately adventurous- thank god they are so affectionate, funny and adorable!
