Historic Reference Photo - Totallycoastal Buried Treasure (aka Berry)

Totallycoastal Buried treasure (aka Berry)

now retired as a breeding queen here at Totallycoastal, after leaving her legacy kittens here.

Update - Totallycoastal Buried Treasure @ 6m

Berry was always going to stay here to walk in her Mothers (Nebraska) footsteps.  I see no hint of Big Mac in her at all, a pure replica of her mother eeven down to the tail (darn it).  If only that tail had been long enough to show. 

She has a very nice temprement and I do notice a bit of Mac softie personality in her along with her mother gentle and quiet nature.  We love this girl to bits, and her name was picked based on the fact we believed she was a little treasure when she was first born.  We now look at her as one of our crown jewels, just like her mum and dad.

Update - Flourishing Spring Trio!

Nebraska's litter was born in March this year.  They have ALL developed in to fine examples and I am very proud of all three.  Totallycoastal Ocean Waves (Oceana) is a dilute pixiebob, while Totallycoastal Jolly Roger (Joe) and Totallycoastal Buried Treasure (Berry) are standard colour.  Colour aside, their type is really nice and I can definately see all the good bits from mum and dad in them.

Just look how Joe is maturing!

Update - Berry Photoshoot @ 16 weeks

Berry never really stays still for long enough to get pictures of (which is why there is a lack of photo's of her).  I was changing the bedding over, and she decided it would be really good to roll around in the laundry.  So while not the greatest composition, it did mean she'd stay in one place long enough to get some snaps.  I am still trying to get the hang of my new camera so not all these photos are the greatest of quality either.   Howver, one thing for sure is Our Berry is developing into a very gorgeous girl indeed, and will be taking over from her mum Nebraska at Totallycoastal.

Update - Photoshoot of Nebraska Trio @ 9w

The lighting seemed to confuse my camera today. It couldnt decide if it needed a flash or not.. so snaps some did and some didn't use it!  The kittens are into everything now. At 9 weeks they are Climbing and jumping everywhere.. This of course makes for some fun kitten watching time and far better than any TV Show ;oP

Joe is the boldest and attempts the biggest climb the farthest jump and the best ambushes. Berry is hyper and just randomly runs off in any direction as if shes chasing some imaginary mouse. Oceana is calm, quiet and refined and as always still poses for the camera.  Ok so enough talking and time for the weekly updated pictures.  One last thing to mention, both Joe and Oceana are currently available.  So please contact Totallycoastal if you are interested in either or both of these kittens.

From Left to Right, Berry, Joe and Oceana
As you can see we were very fortunate with these kittens coats every one of
them is EXTREMELY Spotty!!!

All three again sizing up if they can jump from this ledge!  And a Sneak
preview of Joes Side Profile..which has come on so much since last week!

Berry decides she'll carry on playing, while the other 2
are still contemplating jumping... Joe of course is ready to leap ;oD

Oceana decides its too high and joins Berry! I have to get Joe as he is about to
take the plunge off a 5ft high shelf.. the crazy boy!





Oceana quietly having a nose around

More of this stunning dilute Coated girl

Oceana having a little bit of a play

Showing off her wonderful spotted coat. This angle is always the best
to show coat pattern.  Thanks Oceana!

Here Oceana stand perfectly still just waiting for me to take the photo..
If only Joe and Berry would keep still for more than a millisecond...

Again Ocean just turns her head to a super pose and actually stands still
for you to take it.. she held her paw on the Pom-Pom just for added affect.....
I think I should have named this girl after a famous fashion model, LOL!

An Action shot of Oceana here, just to prove that she's just
a regular girl kitten after all....

Not long before she's holding poses for the camera again..
I simply adore this shot of her!!!

So Next Up is Joe, and the Camera Flash too... Which gives us some
dazed eye shots.. Thankfully it does decide to switch itself off in later pictures..
But with the flash it does bring through the undercoat tones well.. so there are some benefits to it!





Joe has the longest, thickest, wooly coat out of all 3 kittens.. we wondered if he would actually
be a semi-longhair boy... but I think it will actually end up being a really plush shorthair with excellent loft
Just like his Dads and Annie Os.

 

Joe has such an expressive face and it's identical to his dads (Big Mac) Supersize Me.
Already though Joe has a better profie than dad did at this age.. and I think that is Nebraskas
influence coming through.. I cant wait to see this boy at 12w and 16w!

Joe has really puffy whisker pads and a nice width to his muzzle.. Its very hard to get
any pictures of ths boys face as he is always stickinghis nose in places he shouldn't.
so Im pleased I managed to capture this shot here...Very Lucky!

It's mine.. Almost a Spread Eagle shot here of Joe.. He is a chunky boy but he is
very leggy too.. which I hope he retains as he matures!

Joes Action Shot of the Day!! Perfect Black hocks on this boy..again just
like his Dad. You can also see that profile is coming on nicely now and were
getting more of a break...

Joes Chunky Paws... a quick back swipe and the Pom-Pom is history!

Another Wide Eyed Expression here as I was frantically
waving my arm around trying to get him to look this way,
but at least he is sitting still for a second!
Giving us an opportunity to catch the size and roundness of his head and that
Nice Broad Muzzle.  You can clearly see the nose has decent width too...

Just look at the thickness of this Coat...  Could Joe still be a longhair in the making?

  

Finally some ordinary eye shots of this boy, now his decided to chillout!

Joe..If only you'd pose like this more often!

We'll that was short lived.. his into things again... But a nice
wild look about him in this photo....almost Lion Like....Roar!

Last but Not Least Berry.... Who thankfully refrained from random darting around
So I managed to get some reasonable pictures of her.

Berry having a turn with the Pom-Pom Toy!



Another decent sized Muzzle with gorgeous puffy whisker pads.

Berry are you trying to out do Oceana here!
Never seen you keep still for so long.

 

Berry showing her little riser tail... How Cute is that!

This was the last we got of this beautifully red girl...
Yep you guessed it, she ran off chasing imaginary mice!
