Dominique is 7 months. She is waiting with us to leave for Japan. Her development pleases us ; she is becoming more and more an attractive female.

Florentina 4 months (available)



Florentina is our silver tabby girl from the F-litter. She has a very nice silver tabby, and she is probably an amber carrier. You can see she has an excellent profile, chin and forehead,As she is 4 months old she is ready to leave us.

Plans for the beginning of 2012.


We plan a mating between CH Stratocaster Blue Tanis and our SC Uno av Sandrabben (DM).
We expect a lot from this litter. Strato has excellent type and qualities. Uno has already proved he can make some beautiful kittens.
Because of his age, we think this will be one of his last litters.
Expected colours are white, black (with or without white), black tabby with or without white and blue solid or tabby with or without white if Strato carries dilution, which we don't know yet :-).
We expect the litter between january and march (of course when both cats cooperate).

The G-litter, something about the qualities.


When the litter was born, we thought the kittens were born later then the normal 63 days. You think you must have been mistaken about the date of the mating, when you have a litter of 7(!) kittens with weights between 140 (Giselle) and 155 grams (Gunnar). But when the kittens developed in the coming weeks we knew that that was not the case.
After 9 weeks we can say that the kittens have weights that are between 200 and 300 grams higher then average: Gunnar the biggest with a stunning 1520 grams and Giselle the " weakest" female with still 1160 grams. And all of this without any extra feeding. Just the mothermilk and RC babycat.
About the qualities we are also very pleased; we do not have so many homogene litters like this one. The blue kittens are very much alike, the two reds and the two black kittens also.
All the kittens have (very) big ears and tufts, some of them xxl. All the kittens have very good coats, the blue kittens have the longest coats.
All in all, when you look at the average quality, this is our best litter of the year.
