Cat Genes Tests
We have received some of our tests back from the Cat Genes Lab in Texas. Good news so far, all the HCM tests correspond with the UC Davis results and all are negative for kidney issues and all are A blood type. Marilyn
Longview, Washington
May 15, 2009, true to form, I have only just worked out how to access this blog again. Computers!!!!!! Anyway, Corky and I are off to a show in Longview Washington for the Victoria Day weekend. We will be back on Monday. We have some really nice kittens coming up and I will be getting pictures done when I get home next week. We will have our Grandson Jaden with us this time. We have set up a booth at the Luxton Rodeo for this weekend which promotes our Garden City Cat Club show c0ming up next month on June 27 and 28 in Sidney. We will be working with the Food Bank and taking donations at the door of the show. Contributors can get $2.00 of their adult admission if they bring stuff for the food bank. The Portland show managed to get 13/45 gallon drums of food for their food bank. We are throwing out a challenge to Victorians to meet or beat the Portland contributions.
On a health note, we have had two kitten owners over the past year turn up with kittens diagnosed with Crptococcus. One was up Island and the other was over in Vancouver. So, people, might be a good idea to check out any suspicious symptoms. The Cryptococcus fungus is located for the most part on the middle of the Island, around the Cathedral Grove area. It has been known to cause problems with pets that roam outside. If any one is having any issues, you might want to mention this to the vet, so they can do appropriate tests. Another good reason to ensure that your cats remain indoors, especially if you are in the affected area. It has not been associated with the Victoria area. Talk when we get back from Longview.

CALGARY SHOW
Hello everyone, looks like I have been dragged kicking and screaming into the internet age. Didn't know what a blog was until last month. Anyway, let's see if this thing helps everyone know what is going on at Briar Glen Farms.
A number of very happy people have already taken delivery of their kittens and we are delivering some on our way to a show in Calgary on April 18 and 19. So, we will be away from Thurs. evg. to Thursday April 23. We want to see our kids in Calgary while there and stop at Trout Lake on the way home. My daughter and her family will be looking after the critters while we are gone.
We have some new kittens for those who missed the early litters. Just email us and I will get back to people with pictures and descriptions when we get home. All are by our Supreme Grand Champions and of course all guaranteed for 3 years for health. We are currently waiting results from Cat Genes in Texas on a new group of replacement kittens. It is the first time we have used them. Have used UC Davis in the past. Take care everyone and enjoy your new babies. Marilyn www.ragdollkittens.ca
