Since you're asking for it... here's the babies' story :)
When Violet was 9 months old, I took her to a show. She had been looking quite bad for two or three days, so I decided to ask a chi breeder... Do you think she's pregnant ? and the breeder answered "could be!". The vet checked a few days later that she was 5 weeks pregnant !! How could this happen, Awen had been neutered ????
When Violet got 7,5 months old, I got Awen neutered because I didn't want anything to happen. No babies whatsoever ! Unity had had her first heat with 14 months, so I thought it was early enough.The very evening I brought Awen back from the vet, I realized that Violet was losing a little blood and that Awen was over-excited. He and Violet well... did it, although he had not been particularly attracted to her in the past few days ! We did not try to stop him because we thought nothing could have happened thanks to his operation.
Well, when I realized that Violet was pregnant, so young, I got really scared. I went to the vet, he checked that everything was okay, and we decided upon a caesarian. At that time I thought that I would sell the babies, I did not imagine having 5 chis.
A few days later, Byron and Beluga were born, two gorgeous little chis, a lavender furball and a blue merle baby ;) We simply could not resist !! the first few days were very tough, especially for Byron. Violet had no milk so I had to bottle-feed them every 2 hours, but Byron did not want to eat :( He lost 30% of his weight during the first 5 days. But then Violet started to produce some milk, and Byron finally started to eat! We were so relieved !! Well it's a long story, but now I'm keeping both of them
Wow sounds like those babies were just meant to be with you! No way I could let them go either...They are so beautiful and now you have a complete family... Great story. Deb
