Lions Royale Ragdoll Blog

You will notice that things don't look quite the same on the site once you leave the home page.

I was adding a File Sharing page so you can all upload videos, pictures, updates etc whenever you wanted. However, my old page theme didn't support the File Sharing page.

 I thought I was just changing the theme on the one page but it changed it throughout my site. I managed to back up the homepage before I changed anything so I got it changed back but the rest of the pages appear to be permanently altered.

I'll have to work with it. Please bear with me. I liked my old theme but this one is very royale looking so maybe I'll get used to it.

I miss the side menu, everything is now at the top.

You may see a few more changes as I try to fix the mess I made. 

On a happy note, babies are doing great and getting cuter and cuter every day.  Lots of new pictures and slideshows to be added.

It's been a couple of very busy weeks.

Annie has had her babies! Our last litter from Horatio Caine, our fabulous Flame Bicolor male.  Horatio has now landed in Italy where his new mom reports that he came out of the carrier after the long flight purring and playing.  That's a relief to hear!  I know he will produce some fantastic babies in his new home.

Stella and Lolas babies are now 6 weeks and so much fun.  They are all very outgoing little Scamps.  I am excited to keep Lolas big Seal mitted male for showing and eventually breeding.  Lola is such a stunning cat with an incredible pedigree.  I look forward to producing more kittens from her lines through this beautiful, I mean handsome, boy.

Stellas babies are just dream kittens.  I would love a house full of kittens like this.  Temperament, beauty and quality.  wow.  I'm so pleased with her first litter.

Gwens babies are coming very well.  They are just precious.  Now three weeks old.  I've posted slideshows for all of these babies.

Enjoy!

Wow, what a week this has been.

I've had multiple visitors almost every day to see babies this week or to pick up their babies.  I have lots to catch up on today to prepare for the weekend with other babies heading home.

Stella and Lolas kittens are funny, funny, funny.  They just turned 4 weeks and I'm enjoying my down time playing with them.  I'm really pleased with Stellas first litter.  Remarkable kittens in looks and temperament.  They will be one of a kind though because our very handsome boy Horatio is heading to his new home in Europe!  I'm sure he will father some incredible babies there too.

Cameo and Polly Anna (Aunt and Niece!) are also heading to their new home this month together.  They will be in a small cattery here in Ontario.  A link will be posted to the site once it's up and running.

Rosie and Annie-Bella will be available for adoption as spayed pets in the late fall/early winter.

I will try to post more info on Gwens kittens. Looks like we have BLUE babies in this litter as well as a couple seal.  YAY. 

One of the babies that headed home has been named 'Bustopher Jones' and his new mom shared the poem below with me that I thought was really cute.  Bustopher will have a wee brother joining him named Rum Tum Tugger!  His poem is shown below as well.  Check out the link to the site below for more and the full poems.  Thanks for sharing Barbara!!

*********************************************************************************************

“Bustopher Jones is not skin and bones

In fact he’s remarkably fat.

For he’s the St. James’ Street Cat”

*********************************************************************************

The Rum Tum Tugger is a Curious Cat:

If you offer him pheasant he would rather have grouse.

 If you put him in a house he would much prefer a flat,

If you put him in a flat then he'd rather have a house.

You probably noticed that my Home Page looks different. I've made some subtle and some 'not so subtle' changes.

 The biggest change is that the photos and details on my resident Ragdolls is missing.  That was due to some technical issues.  Not sure what happened.  Tech support couldn't figure it out either so I guess it wasn't all me. haha   I'm not that competent with the html codes so I had to eliminate and replace almost all the info before I got the pages back up.

I have lots of new features that I'm working on.  One that will be helpful will be the google toolbar that you can use to search my site for information you are looking for on Ragdolls or search the entire web.  There is a google search bar on the 'Available Kittens' page but I don't have my info pages up yet.  You can still use it to search online for cat related results.

 Moms and babies are doing great.  It looks like we have a mixture of blue and seal in Gwens litter. Not sure of patterns yet. 

 New slide shows will be up soon!

I'm excited and relieved to announce that Gwendolyn gave birth to 6 beautiful babies starting late on Sunday afternoon - August 2nd.  She had them much later than her due date but they are excellent, strong babies.

 Mom and babies are doing very well.  Colors and patterns will become evident soon and I'll update. Looks like all but one are boys!

I have a very exciting addition to my website coming that I think our Pet Owners will enjoy and I know I will.

Each pet owner will receive a password to log into the Lions Royale Friends Online Forum and you will be able to post news, photos, funny stories about your Ragdoll or whatever you would like to share!!  This is YOUR PAGE!!  I want to hear from you guys and all about your new kitten or grown kitty.

I'm so excited. I've wanted to make a page of photos for our past kittens but I think this will be even better.  You won't have to wait for me to upload things to add them to the site.  Because, let's face it, I haven't gotten that page finished yet!  haha It's been in the works for a long time. 

This forum will (should) be quick to set up and once everyone gets their password and starts sharing pictures and such it will be awesome!  I'll probably do away with the blog and just post to the forum. We'll see how it works out.
