About Us
We started our married
life, over thirty five years ago with a middle aged Siamese
neuter, called Albert, a wonderful gift from my childhood, I
could not bear to leave at home. We at this time had
no plans for any other cats however making
our own family took precedence and it was a few years later
when Albert died of old age that we started to become
involved in something that would later become a major
part of our lives.
We actually started
showing one Siamese kitten as a hobby in 1983, enjoying a
good level of show success, seeing many lovely cats, meeting
other cat fanatics and making several very good
friends.
Over the years as our interest and knowledge grew
it was inevitable that eventually we would want to breed our own pedigree kittens for the show bench and thereby also have some
really beautiful quality kittens for pet homes.
Oh! How a
lovely little hobby can grow.....
into pedigrees,
bloodlines, genetics, many sleepless nights, huge bills for food
and supplies, seriously hard work at times and as John says
sometimes it really does feel like the National Debt but also with
the disappointments there is so much pleasure.
Our lives now generally happily revolve around our hobby of our beautiful cats, cat shows, time spent on cat club committee's,
regular telephone calls with long distance cat friends, lovely visits at home from cat friends and folk we meet as slight acquaintances who
as we get to know them become real good friends.
We have
only three breeding cats and therefore we are very
small time cat breeders, we feel that this is far more
important than having lots of kittens. We pride ourselves
that our Siamese kittens are carefully and lovingly home
reared pedigree kittens who will mature in to much loved
and adored adults. It is the
