Deshima went to a resort for a short romantic holiday with Jesse. Deshima is slightly spoiled so she inspected her resort and when she met Jesse she inspected him as well very thorough. She took her time and she hissed at Jesse when he tried to introduce himself. She looked at him and she undoubtedly liked what she saw, Jesse is a sturdy beautiful Snow Bengal. She took her time to get aquatinted with his smell and the atmosphere of his resort; after all she is a lady.
Jesse is an experience Bengal and
withdrew so he could observe Deshima. He purrrrred at her in his silkiest " purrrrrrrrssssss……."
When she came home the other Bengals
didn’t like her smell and hissing was in the air. The others gave her the cold shoulder
but Deshima took no notice of them. She washed herself thoroughly and walked proudly
with her tale held high. After a few days she was everybody’s BBF again.
We observed that she had more appetite but that was all. We started to watch her teats, when they turned pink she will be expecting kittens. Inconspicuously we tried to have a look, but Deshima was not amused
and we stopped our attempts.
We started daydreaming and remembered
Wasilla’s romantic holyday.
In one week we will be sure and
in februari the kittens will be born. We will be waiting in anticipation. The
birth of kittens is very, very stressful for me. I am so very happy that our Bengals
will follow their instincts and they will be very confident mothers. That doesn’t
go for me; I will be very emotional. The birth of a kitten is a wonder of
nature and being a part of this intimate event makes me emotional indeed.
I have taken precautions if necessary
our veterinary surgeon is five minutes away so he can compensate my insufficient
instincts and I can continue daydreaming…….
