Protesting In The Pen

Raven, Pink, Robin, Wren, Geraldine 
There is no way they are going out today. Though it's not as rough as last weekend it's still a pretty dirty old day. Now with every day that passes the pups need more, I did the best I could this morning, giving them free access to the bathroom, hall, middle room and utility whilst I pottered bout. I loaded the washing machine, flushed the loo and banged and crashed about as much I could. Responses and reactions vary and I work on any issues that I see. They really need to see and be seen, but they are seeing less than the last litter, at least they were able to have some visitors in the outside pen. It's just been too cold and wet for any such visits now. Socialising will be a priority for these pups in their new homes! 
I'm concerned that not one of the boys have their testicles. Though one was a little slow in the last litter all were present and correct. Hmm, I really hope there are no issues, though I guess for a pet it's not overly important, it just means neutering at approx 18 months. 
I sat here this morning watching the seconds tick away and at 10am exactly I speed dialled the KC. Wow I got through  at 10.10am. I explained to the very nice man that this was now getting ridiculous. I had sent in my document on the 14/1/21. Payment had been collected and now the pups are 6 weeks old, and they are not even listed online. He again e.mailed the relevant department and said he'd sent it through as priority! I had been assured on the 10/2/21 that they would be sorted within a couple of days ... Hmm, now I have very little faith in them, but all I can do is wait!
