A WARM WELCOME TO MY SITE !

I was owned by my first Siamese, a wonderful Seal Point boy called Sascha in 1967, followed shortly afterwards by my first breeding queen - Blue Point Yorkshire Lass, Chamsah Cassane.

I knew then, that my life would never be the same again, like many before me, I had fallen in love with the Siamese Breed.

In recent years, I have also grown to LOVE Orientals - and home is a lively and interesting place with both Siamese and Orientals.

Since 1967, my life consisted of two halves :

 "BEFORE" & "AFTER" Siamese

owning & breeding in a small way BEFORE my PREFIX

 and Siamese owning & breeding AFTER my PREFIX.

My much loved HOBBY became my PASSION!!!!

Over the years, I have not always been free to show the lovely cats and kittens that I have enjoyed bringing into the world ... and rather sadly, few of my kitten owners have seemed to be as enthusiastic about the show world, as I have always been - but the most important thing for me, has been ensuring that all my kittens have gone to Loving & Forever Homes - and how delightful it is to receive news and photographs of them, year on year.

It is wonderful to know how many of them

 are enjoying long, healthy lives.

In 2008, I had the utmost pleasure in seeing my wonderful 'Bonnie' aka Gr Ch & Imperial Gr Pr Metexa Shanita (32/8) become the oldest Siamese to achieve IMPERIAL status at 13 years of age.

Many, many thanks to our dear friends Kathy & Rose Debowska of Metexa Siamese & Orientals for this wonderful gentle lady - she had been competing since 1996 ... always a lady to be proud of!

I hope that her many achievements for the Caramel Tabby status - the first to hold both GRANDS - will encourage others to become exhibitors.
