"We" - this means Ute (born 1969) and Andreas (born 1967). Since many years, we were accompanied by one or - sometimes - more cat(s). The magic of those wonderful creatures captivated us until this day. When we've took our first apartment together, a black-white household-cat decided to live with us. During all the years, we were big fans of the different breeds and visited a lot of exhibitions in our region.
Once we've visited an exhibition in Switzerland - sometimes in July 1994 - and there we've met our "Dream-Cat": he was a NFC... black-silver-tabby with white. We were filled with enthusiasm.
Then
we've talked with the breeder a very long time about the
character
of the NFCs. The breeder invited us for a visit at
her
home - to see how this special breed is living in everyday life.
It last a rather long time, until our "Dream-Boy" was born... 18 months later! But he was really worth to wait for him... on X-mas 1995 our Bjoern-Soelfaks av Thy moved in.
In
December 1996 we've took part at our first show, together
with
Bjoern-Soelfaks and our Purzel. So we were infected with
the
"cat-show-virus"... and since than we are visiting shows
in
Germany, Switzerland, Austria and Luxembourg.
At
May 1997, Dana Blue av Thy moved in our home and in
July
1998 we've decided to breed NFCs. Our first litter was
born
at September 1998.
As
you can read on our homepage, we don't have many litters
each
year. We will never do more than 2 litters in one year. We are small-scale breeders and will go on in this way.
We
are living in the opinion, that every kitten and every litter
must
be able to enjoy our full attention. For us it is very
important
to give our kitten a good character - it is one of
our
goals in breeding.
Because
of this, we use a big part of our holidays for the
rearing
of our kitten. And for us it is rather normal that
a
cat is allowed to stay with us when he/she is getting
neutered.
And for us are all our cats - no matter how old or Norwegian Forestcats or houscats - part of our family. They earn all our respect and we are responsible for their welfare.
We
hope that you enjoy our sites!
