Premier Vestisler Annastazia (Anni)

Bought purely as a pedigree pet in 1999. When I began to show my Oriental Lilac in 2002 I saw there were so few Russian Blues on the show bench. Knowing that three years of age was rather old in the cat world to start showing, I nevertheless took Anni to her first ever show, the Suffolk & Norfolk Cat Club, at the local Wood Green Animal Shelter at Godmanchester, near Huntingdon.

Anni won her Open Class and gained her first Premier Certificate! She was made up to Premier at the Nottingham & Derby Cat Club Show in January 2003. She has now "semi-retired" as she is such a shy girl, but will still have an occasional outing when the mood takes her!

Premier Annalova Vanyusha (Nikita)

Nikita came to live with us in 2003 and is the only male cat who lives in the house. He is so very friendly, affectionate and a joy to own. Nikita means 'victorious' in Russian, but the origin of the name can be traced back to the Greeks!

Nikita was made up to Premier in 2004 and has also now retired from the show scene.
