[主題] 挪威森林貓

雄偉的大貓，在北歐森林生活，不畏嚴寒.........................

這是我家的另一頭雄貓Dragomir(來自美國)，也是銀虎斑白(silver tabby & white)...........

Dragomir將會是Rasmine在08年的男朋友.................

很期待Dragomir和Rasmine這一對夢幻組合的超級BB呢！

對呀！Rasmine巳經13星期大了..................十一月就可到香港來。
我追尋她外公Flying Dutchman這一脈血統巳經超過兩年........thank God我在機緣巧合下找到這一家丹麥breeder竟然有Flying Dutchman的女兒在 ...

什麼?! 才13星期便這麼大了......amazing......還是女孩子呢! 簡直可以和Maine Coon的size相提並論....

她的profile很美呀!

Has it been a difficult task to search for this bloodline? I'm also searching for the bloodline of a very prestigious MC cattery in the States, but it's rather confined to its own network of breeder friends. (So, it's pretty tricky...) I'll talk to you about this face to face in the coming show.

By the way, I'm not sure if I've been offered places in the Nov. show yet.

很羨慕住在安全戶外的大種貓. 我看過很多posters影著NFC或MC住在冰天雪地的戶外, 名乎其實的"四蹄踏雪". 他們的ruff & body coat全是厚厚的. Simply Cool!!!!

I've also got a plan to build an outdoor run on our roof so that our cats can enjoy fresh air in a safe outdoor area but the possibility of them hunting wild birds (got Bird Flu in mind....) is a problem to be dealt with.

that's why I got involved in club, that's why I kept showing "myself" (not just the cats) around the world, that's why I tried so hard last year to earn the BEST CAT title.................

With all these accomplished now I'm feeling much easier to deal with oversea breeders to acquire bloods I want, which, understandably, takes some time and a lot of effort to achieve................

yep..........and silver is so unique that it almost needs cats of its own to sustain............and with the CFA you'd better show perfectly marked silver to win, or else any other less-than-perfect silver expression will render your cats a much, much lower chance.............

ces't la vie...............

Of course your effort is widely acknowledged! What you've achieved is no ordinary......
Do you think your NFC cattery is now among the top 20 internationally? I bet it is (or perhaps better, but I don't know much about NFC catteries)!

Well, now that I've engaged in more CFA cat shows (6 shows already since Aug, 2006.......amazing! Showing cats can be a form of addiction too!), I've learnt that both the colours and patterns/markings of a show cat are as critical as how well it fits the breed standards, or sometimes even outweigh it. (Hey, this is what I learnt from my MC gal! One really has to 'pay the price', literally, to learn the lesson.)

Yep, c'est la vie, but optimistically speaking, la vie est pleine de surprises.........

don't worry girl, I reckon your girl is indeed a very typey cat whereas the colour thing can be rectified by the correct pairing of a good quality silver boy..............so you should be looking forwards to cats of your own breeding in the next generation.............

good things come to those who wait..................

looking good............but whether or not he's the right boy for your girl I honestly don't know............

I tend to love to think the boy's father looks better, hey but standardwise, I am not as fluent as I am about NFC than MCO.............so some expert advice from the like of, say, Jimmy Lee or those Japanese/American breeders would be good..........
