Most of our kittens are sold as pets or show alters.  Our pet kittens are available for $500 and may be shown.  Our show alters are cats that display absolutely superior qualities who should be placed as show/breeder cats and are available beginning at $1,000.  They will be spayed or neutered.  

SHOW/BREEDER

Some breeders make a distinction between breeders and show quality cats, which places breeders "between" pet and show cats.  We don't make those distinctions.  Any breeder from our cattery is a cat I would like to keep and show.  We sell breeders to established breeders that we know personally, but we are very willing to mentor new breeders.  (You need to know that this mentoring relationship is for life.)

Three girls play Queen of the Mountain:  Clare, Bella (nee Shannon) and Liffey.  Since last year's March litter was named for Celtic gods, goddesses and heroes, this litter got the names of Irish rivers.  Two girls, including Bella, have been placed in pet homes.  I am still trying to decide which girl to keep.  The lucky pet girl goes to Don and Paulette Owens, happy owner of Prattmandu Putter (formerly Zoomer).

Look for more photos soon!

This was the very last litter from Akashi and Marbleous, who have made such beautiful babies.  I asked Kashi to make two girls for me, one to continue on here, and one for my Best Friend, Sharron Henderson Goller of LaGallerie Bengals.

Akashi obliged.  She had exactly two girls.  At first, I knew which one was for me.  Finally, they had put the "Itsie" pattern on the girl with the thick tail!  Finally!!  So she got named "Marbleous Finale."  Made sense since this was their last litter!

The girl I was sure I would give to Sharron, I called Little Sister until I was sick of singing Billy Idol songs.  Then I just switched it to French (petite souer).  But I could not call a cat by a name that in English sounds like "sewer."  So, she became Ma Petite Chouchou (literally, "My Little Cabbage"), a French term of endearment.

In the end, when the time for choosing came, I let Sharron pick.  So Finnie is at LaGallerie, and Chouchou is here.  This tickles my heart.  I love humorous irony.

This litter was born in the midst of the much publicized controversy of the British school teacher in the Sudan who had allowed her students to name their classroom teddy bear "Muhammed."  People actually wanted to sentence her to death for this.  So to honor Gillian Gibbons, I tried to name this litter appropriately.

Noriko and Diva

SOLD

Prattmandu MoBetterHeySeuss

Mo's name is obvious, and he was the first to be named.  A boy kitten born under these circumstances had to be named "Mo."  The rest of the name came later. This pic is of Mo on the saddle in the bedroom.
