Queen of Crystal Pond ( Grand Pointed )
Beautifully marked Calico. She has quite alot going
for her.....lovely doming, beautiful eyes, precious face, great nostrils, little ears, cobby body on short legs, hugely plumed
tail, wonderful coat, etc. Her personality is like her mother's, funny and child-like. She has also been
very hardy and healthy.
I almost named her Squeaker because she literally lets
out a high pitched squeal of delight when something excites her. What a riot !
And, she is a little misfit, always into something......so
her name fits her well ;-)

Crystal Pond's Delilah

Delilah is built like a Sherman tank.
She is as big as her father, head and all, and he's a
big boy.
A very cobby and massive female who inherited her sire's
large boning and hugely plumed tail and her Dam's boxy body.
She also has her Sire's great eye color,
huge poppy eyes and small ears with good spread.
She has a big, broad, round head with a very sweet, open
face.
She also has the wonderful, open nostrils
I strive for in my program so they breathe well.
She is not shown yet because she very much dislikes crowds,
etc. And she is a big, strong and agile girl, not one you want to be wrestling in a show hall. Traumatising my
cat is not an option and I prefer to keep my skin. So, I am taking my time with her and we'll see how she she settles
as she matures, would be a shame not to at least acquire her Championship.

I adopted
Gypsy ( Diddy-Do ) as " Breeder / possible Show " quality. I loved her rich color, temperment and her funny
personality. She is like a little child with her antics. She has such cobbiness, every judge comments
on her boxy body.
For such a cobby girl, she births
surprisingly well.
She and my Montero produce really nice quality kittens,
as you can see with "Sissy" & Delilah above. I've never had a pet quality kitten out of her and every one of them had
huge eyes and very functional noses with large nostrils - no wheezy noses.
It has also been a welcome
surprise to see Gypsy's quality has matured to the point of earning her Grand points making her breeders and myself very happy.
