Colic!? Wind problems slowed down Atarangi's weight gain a bit this week but a timely gift from Roy and Jan Smith containing some Dill tea and other goodies was our saviour. Nana stayed til thursday when she flitted off to welly to see Abigail, Donna, Brendon and Lulu. Puppy cat ventured inside! Poor thing, I was getting worried she was going to find a new home! we survived our first major public outing, taking Nana out for lunch to say thanks for everything.

First week at home with Atarangi...

She lost 125g in the first four days then gained 340g in two days!!

Nana and Pop Pop arrived on Saturday night to stay, Nana slaved away cleaning for a week and a half, oh and had some cuddles, Pop pop stayed for cuddles and we managed to get a few jobs out of him before he left :)
