I spent an hour writing this post this
morning as the sun was rising. And then I accidentally deleted it. It’s probably for the best, it was quite a tanget. Here’s the gist:
I have noticed so many lies and rampant deceit among ragdoll breeders lately and it's so disheartening. Adopters aren't just being scammed by people...
I was laying in bed last night under my usual blanket of kitties. My very best bedtime snuggler, JackPot, was under the covers, stretched out along my torso, leg stretched over my chest, paw to my heart, licking my chin with his rough grit tongue. I was thinking of the many facebook posts I see each week and the private...
I have wanted to show cats for as long as I can remember. Finally, FINALLY, the pandemic was going to allow me to realize that dream. shows have continued in many parts of the world and even in this country. But not on the West Coast. No shows for us. The second I saw show listings within a days...
After the torture of bathing, and the longest drive ever, we arrived at our first show in Reno. We met some nice people, we met some not as nice people. We found a great friend in a Bengal breeder named Monique. We set up our benching area, we put on our cute matching shirts, and we loaded the cats into...
FINALLY we were able to register for shows at the beginning of the Summer! This pandemic stuff has put a real damper on my dreams of showing cats. We jumped in and registered for the first two shows within driving distance. First a TICA show in Reno, Nevada, then a TICA show in Pasadena, California. Thank goodness for Anne...
Since our last blog, we've collected our "ragdoll starter kit" from all the corners of the Ragdoll world. WindFall from Louisiana, Rummy from Poland, CeCe from Poland, and Penny from Oklahoma. They spend their days playing, lounging, sleeping, eating, and playing some more. Rummy can be found on the pink cactus print chair upstairs or perched at...
The holidays are busy around here and we've been remiss in our blogging. While you haven't been looking, we've identified our entire foundation breeding group. WindFall is settling in beautifully. He KNOWS he's destined to be king. He has an impeccable sense of smell which he utilizes daily. He falls short on respecting personal boundaries as he...
Well, I finally found a breeder with a gorgeous tortie girl! She was immediately available, had great markings, and was owned by a breeder who was kind enough to teach me a few things and hold that sweaty hand of mine. She took some time to explain to me that male Ragdolls can take quite a while to mature and...
Last week, my Mom sent me a text saying that she loved a specific cat and that I should call his breeder and become her friend. I was like, "uhhhmm, it doesn't really work that way. I'm sure she's too busy and also she's too important to have time for me.". Well, Mom was right. That's right, you heard it here folks, Denise was Right!...
If you haven't known me for very long, you might find it shocking that I want to own and breed show cats. If you've known me just a little while, you know Flirt, the best boyfriend ever. You may know his story; that my husband and I had split, my cat (my grandmother's cat) who had seen me allllll the...
