Very sad news: Neil died, I am not going to write sad words because I cannot even explain how I feel about his lost !
I "chipped" him with this product that most people use for useless things like: showing cats always in condition.
I did it because he was such a loud and active male, he was calling for girls all day and night and he was making the whole place very smelly and disgusting.... I asked a lot of times if it was safe to make it to an old male.
After a few days it seemed to me that he was not feeling well and I thought it was because of this chip.... and my husband and I thought maybe we are just not used to see him calm and sleepy and not calling for girls.
And also the vet told me it is impossible that the chip makes them hill. But I felt he was not ok, I knew him so very well. The next day I decided to take him to the vet again but I found him dead ! The night before he was eating and he was looking for me to pet him.... or maybe to tell me he was not well.
Anyway he died in his place with his females and his people and not in some animal hospital attached to some flebos or useless medicine. I hope he did not suffer too much. I wanted to leave him the way he died and leave him his absolute dignity and not start to cut him open "to see" why he died, but I did and we discovered that his stomach was broken by an ulcer (we did not find tumor) all the other organs where still perfect.
We have had 2 litters with Neil before he died one on February 22nd (with an outside Felis Jubatus female there were 7 kittens !) and one with Aubade at our home.
We will take back a female from the outside mating that looks exactly like Neil, we have chosen her before we knew about Neil, maybe this was a sign.
So long Neil I will always miss you !
This is Neil's daughter, TNT Tanis Hiemalis, that we took back from Christina Hörter. Christina is the owner of the oldest, I think, Italian NFO breeding name Hiemalis. Soon more info about Tanis.
Puppy, Shetland Sheepdog, this year 17 years old ! Long life to the Puppy !
This is our housecat found on the roads of Palermo, he had maybe 1 month of age and was sick and filthy, now he sleeps confortably on our couch and hunts poor swiss birds and mice.....
This is a cute wedding present from our friend Anna and her family from S*Winterland's cattery

Never wonder about some cattery names?
This house cat is Tanis, she was my first cat together with another black cat named Banshee (from Siouxie and the Banshees). Tanis was a blue cat and I loved her so much that's why my cattery name is "Blue Tanis" :-)) that's all.
By the way the picture here is from 1984.
