We
have loved, exhibited and bred Persians for nearly 30 years
and have produced many Grand Champions in Silvers, Smokes
and Solids.
Our
cats have access to an enclosed garden where, weather permitting,
they spend most of the day hunting butterflies and bugs, romping
on the grass, bird watching, and chasing shadows…
|
|
| |
 |
| |
| For
those times when they cannot be supervised and the weather is fine, our cats have
an enclosed run and playhouse. They
are allowed outdoors only when we are home to keep a watchful eye
on them, since we have some very interesting forms of wildlife of
all sizes who visit us on a regular basis.
|
| |
 |
| |
| We
do not cage our cats. Those of our females who get on
with the rest of our cats run free. Those females who
are territorial run free in the main cattery area. |
|

Our
males are confined to their own dormitory style rooms. These
are like small bedrooms with vinyl screens dividing the rooms
rather than solid walls. This allows the males to be part of
the daily cattery activity and to watch their wives and kittens
play in front of their rooms.
By not
allowing the males to mingle with the females we do not risk any unwanted
pregnancies and we can also be certain about the parentage of our
kittens.

You
will notice that in the Kitten room there are strips of arborite
affixed about 1 1/2 ft to 2 ft above floor level. This is to
prevent the kittens from climbing up the meshing, which might
result in them falling and injuring themselves. |
|
| |
| At
the far end of the cattery a door leads into the grooming room.
This is where we bath and blow dry the cats. We have an air
exchanger which ensures fresh air in the cattery and helps to
keep the house free of odors. |

Our
kittens are happy, healthy and well socialized. The babies are
usually delivered in our bedroom beside our bed. They remain
in our bedroom until they are about 4 to 5 weeks old, when they
usually want to climb out of their box. At this point they are
re-located to the |
|
|
cattery
and confined to a kitten room until they learn to use the litter
box. Then they graduate to running loose in the cattery and then
moving back into the main house.
We
breed Persians and Exotics in most shaded colours, specializing
in Silvers. Our goal is to produce Silver Persians and Exotics of
extreme type, combining this type with the overall sweet expression
and expressive eyes of the Silver Persian.
All kittens are sold with a contract
and are guaranteed healthy at the time of sale. All our
breeding cats have been scanned for Polycystic Kidney Disease and
certificates to this effect are provided.
We feed only the highest quality natural food containing no
rendered meat or bi-products.
We also feed fresh chicken meal made daily from a recipe available
at http://www.felinefuture.com/
We are selective about who we allow to purchase our kittens and
are always willing to help and advise new breeders.
|
| |
| We
have an open cattery and visitors are welcome to drop by and
play with our cats. Each one of our cats knows their name and
responds when spoken to. Our cats are not simply "breeding animals"
but are part of our family. They join us at meals, watch television,
and sleep with us - at least as many as can fit on the bed. |
|
|
|
|
| Our
grand children, Rachelle and Mariah, take after us in their
love of cats. Our cats and kittens thoroughly enjoy
their visits, especially the males who spend most of their
time in the cattery with little to entertain them except
kittens racing around and the occasional mouse who happens to
wander in. |
