S*LITTLE L’S SUNSTORM

For a long time, I had been searching for a silver girl, and although I came close several times, I never quite succeeded. Then, one day, I came across a photo on Facebook of a little girl that I simply couldn’t forget. That’s when I decided to visit Sylvia, the breeder of S*Little L’s, and at last, I found my dream silver girl. A heartfelt thank you to Sylvia and S*Little L’s Cattery for allowing this little Sunstorm to become a part of our lives!

Sunny, as we called her, quickly settled into our home, showing no fear towards our other cats or our two energetic dogs. Her personality was so remarkable that we ended up renaming her Funny, as she was always full of joy and mischief.

Beyond her wonderful temperament, she also had many physical qualities that I adored, such as her beautiful ears adorned with large tassels. She had a strong profile with a smooth, rounded forehead, giving her an incredibly charming expression. Plans were already in place for her first date, and we were hopeful that it would happen by the end of 2014.

Unfortunately, we had to wait a bit longer than anticipated for her first meeting. Casanova was the chosen one, and by the end of April, we were eagerly awaiting the arrival of their kittens. But sadly, things didn’t go as we had hoped. On the morning of May 1, 2015, I heard a faint noise, and I initially thought that she had started to give birth, as it was day 63. 

However, when I checked on her, I realized that it was Funny who made the strange noise. She was lying on her side, struggling to breathe, and felt cold to the touch. I immediately understood that her circulation was compromised, so we rushed her to the nearest veterinary hospital as quickly as we could by car. They took her straight to the intensive care unit. Her condition was extremely critical, and they weren’t sure if they could save her. After several hours of waiting, we received the heartbreaking news, they couldn’t save Funny. But then they told us that they might still be able to save the kittens in her belly. However, when they performed the surgery, they discovered that all of the kittens had already passed away. The vet explained that the cause of her and the kittens deaths was a twisted uterus.

Words can’t express the devastation of losing both Funny and her babies. Rest in peace, Funny, my silver dream girl and your precious kittens. You are forever missed.

Sunny that was her nickname, stepped right into our house and was absolutely fearless both our cats and our two crazy dogs. Her personality is amazing and we were simply forced to rename her to Funny precisely because she is always fun and always find lots of mischief.

Besides her lovely temperament she has many fine technical features that I like, for example, beautiful ears with huge tassels. She has a good profile with a nice rounded forehead and a lovely look. There are already plans for who will be her first date, we hope it will be by the end of 2014.

We had to wait a bit longer than expected for her first date. Casanova was the one for her. In the end of April their kittens were expected and we were so excited to see them. Sadly it didn’t turn out that way. Early morning 1:th of May 2015 I heard a light sound and I thought that she had started to give birth since it was day 63. But when I looked I realised that it was ”Funny” who made that sound. I also saw that she was laying on her side and had problems with breathing. When I should touch her I felt that she was very cold. I understand directly that her circulation was affected so we took our car and drove as fast we could to the closest Veterinary Hospital. They took her to the intensive care immediately. She was in very bad condition and they was not sure if they could save her. We waited for some hours and then the worst message came, they could not save ”Funny” but there where maybe still a chance to save the kittens? But when they opened her they found that all kittens already had died. The veterinary who did the surgery told us that ”Funny’s” and the kittens dead was caused by a twisted uterus.

No words can describe how terrible this was to loose both kittens and their mum! R.I.P ”Funny” my silver dream girl together with your babys.
