Dear Melody,

Just wanted to let you know how our little Nala is doing. Well actually, she's not
that little anymore! She is so very spoiled with treats and playing all the time.
Luckily Eric is home a lot to play with her keep her company as well as our other 2
girls she likes to wrestle and play "tag" with. She loves going out on the deck and
trying to catch birds. She is very loving and sleeps on me every night while she
loves sleeping on Eric during the day. We plan on getting her spayed early next
month and will forward the proof to you. We'll also continue to keep you informed of
her progress.

Thanks again for our little "gift",
Robin

Hi Melody -

Just wanted to let you know we're doing GREAT. She is a little pistol - so full of energy and quite the little "circus performer" She loves to do summersaults with her toys and jump straight up in the air for no apparent reason!!! She keeps us entertained to say the least.
She's growing so fast and she is quite the little "talker", always talking to me. I just love her.

I've attached a document with some photos of her so you can see how' she's growing and what she's been up to over the past 3 weeks. Hope you enjoy them.

Pam

    Hi Melody,                                                              

   Mugen and Fuu are about 7 1/2 months old now and we are so in love with these kids!
   We wouldn't ordinarily have considered getting two cats but, as you know, when the
   time came to make a final decision we couldn't choose just one.  We haven't
   regretted that decision even once.  They are true siblings.  They look out for and
   clean each other, but then they play hard together too.  It's so much fun to watch
   them, and it's a whole lot easier leaving to go to work when I know they'll keep
   each other company.

   And their personalities are turning out to be so different!  Mugen is definitely the
   "tough guy" as we expected he would be, and he's getting huge!!  Just look at
   that face - what a beautiful boy!  And Fuu is our little baby girl, she gets into
   everything but then she's ready to cuddle when she's worn out.  She's tiny compared
   to Mugen, but doesn't seem to realize it when she pounces on him.

   They both love people and they love to play.  And (although the photos speak for
   themselves) they're just beautiful.  We couldn't be happier with them.

   Thank you!!! 
   Julie
 

Melody: Here's an update on Goldispots, the brown-spotted female I adopted in      November '06.      Goldi is a furry treasure -- beautiful, sleek, glittered, playful, affectionate and cuddly.      She's a very active and curious cat too. She plays hard and when she tuckers out, she's      super affectionate and loves to snuggle. She has a quiet purr and a resounding Bengal      "meee-yow" when she wants attention.      I had her for a month before adopting a male black and white Norwegian Forest Cat      named Dominick. When Goldi first met her long-haired playmate, she was a total      girl and didn't want this rambunctious boy kitten playing with all her toys and      romping around her room. But Goldi warmed up to Dom rather quickly and now they      are the best of pals, even cuddling and grooming each other.        Goldi loves water. Whenever the faucet is running, she's in the sink, playfully      batting around water droplets or enjoying a few slurps. She finds the toilet fascinating      and she occasionally plays in the shower.  Goldi is also a climber. She loves her cat      tree with the sisal-covered poles. She claimed the top hammock as her own and takes      her early morning naps on the sunny balcony where her glitter shines in the sunlight      and her evening snoozes in the hammock.        When I first decided to get a new cat, I wasn't sure if a Bengal would be the cat for me.      I'm glad I decided to adopt one because they are amazing cats in every way. Never a      dull moment and I absolutely love her spotted belly, black-ringed tail, and dramatic gold          eyes.         I also enjoyed talking with you and learning more about the Bengals and your      cattery. You took the time to answer questions, introduced me to all your stunning      cats, and even provided many great photos of Goldi's first few months with her      momma Jelly Bean and littermates that I will always treasure.         =^..^=      M e e y o w . . .      Barbara Dreyer

Hi Melody, It's been about 4 months since we bought Miko from you. She's the most incredible creature.  She plays fetch and always puts her toys back in the same place.. and we didn't have to train her to do this! She's so precious and we love her so much. But since we're away most of the day, we have decided that Miko needs and deserves a friend. We were hoping to buy one around Thanksgiving. A spotted girl kitty from Jelly Bean if possible. If you are going to have a litter around this time, please contact us. Thanks so much.                   Maria and Mikee

 

Melody,                                     I woke this am, and she looks different again. She's starting to look more like a sleek female, than that Baby we use to know. Boy is she spoiled though, and talks. I thought i was bad. I have chronic mono, fibromyglia, soft connective tissue disease ( meaning i don't heal internally ) chronic fatigue, plus my thyroid died, which is the major organ that runs your physical self, and all the little things that go with those disease. When i'm in really trouble and having an extremely hard day, Baby will walk very slowly up beside me checking me from bottom to top. Then she will either crawl down beside me under the covers and cuddle or she'll walk back down the side of me, and cuddle right between my legs, having to lay leaning up against me. then she'll look up at me and chatter, asking if i'm ok. She will not leave the room i'm in, it doesn't matter whether it's the bathroom, bedroom, or kitchen. There are days that she really does keep me sane. She makes sure that i laugh everyday, although she can also be a little stinker. She has more toys that my son did as a child, including 2 large cat houses. Sometimes she will sleep there on top, but usually she has to sleep somewhere on the bed right next to me, checking on me from time to time. She really has been the light of my life that has kept me from giving up. Thanks so much for bringing her into my life. Jenie

 

From Dr. SE Marley - Stella, the Bengal Snow Leopard kitten, really loves the wallabies, Gracee and Gibson.  She really enjoys their long tails. Stella is just quite the lover of everyone, people and animals. It is remarkable. So social. I just love her so much!!

Hi Melody,                                                                                         I want to send you some pictures of Rudy, but can't get to a scanner to make digital ones. What is your mailing address again? I will send you a couple of him by snail mail. He is getting so big. He weighs 9 lbs. now. Only 6 months old. I wonder what he will weigh at one year? My husband enjoys him so much! He has always been a dog person. He really loves this cat. He even said he was his daddy. He would never say that about any of my other cats! Last night, Rudy kept getting into a JC Penney's bag. My husband would pick him up in it and carry him around the room. He is a funny kitty. I love how he coos. I want another one! Maybe I can work on my husband on that one. It could be my next project. I can't wait to see how he is at Christmas. I bet our tree won't stay up this year! LOL Take care! Andrea

Hi Melody- We thought we'd send you a few recent pics of Sebi (Pax).  He is doing GREAT!  He is a very active cat and never ceases to make us laugh orsurprise us with his "antics". He loves to climb, jump, antagonize the dog while he's trying to sleep, and especially EAT!! He jumped up on the counter and took a piece of bacon from my father-in-law the other day! He was so shocked, he had never seen a cat with such nerve! We're having to instill some discipline in that area! He is now about lbs., and is always growing. He has had his micro-chip installed, but the vet told us he was too young to neuter a few weeks ago, so we will take him back soon. Hope all is well with you and your family. The Honeycutt's
