Today I want to sing odes to the love of my incomparable Vivienne. This criminal and trespasser escaped from her enclosure and was strolling in the sunshine, and when it started raining, she came to my husband's garage, hence her dirty paws. In fact, that's why she was captured on camera. My incredible, my smart, my gentle Vivienne. If you only knew what a wonderful and caring mother she is, accepting all babies, both her own and those of others. And how smart and quick-witted she is, what a sensitive cat. My ideal, both in character and in pedigree. One of my favorite faces in the cattery. Just look at that chin, those eyes, that wide nose, that fur coat, and those perfect paws. Vivienne is my 3rd generation 🫶🏻
Jolie + Freddy = Peach + Kiki = Jennifer + Emperor = Vivienne. This same combination also produced Fortuna, Vivienne's younger sister.
It's a shame I can't find a cat that matches Vivienne's children and herself, so I could have more descendants than I do now. She and Bruce produced gorgeous offspring. You can see one of the girls below; you'll recognize her; she's the spitting image of her mother. She went to Ireland and will shine there, I'm sure.
But I'm looking for a new cat 👀 I have specific requirements for a cat's face, and what I like is rare these days. But what are we living today? I hope that in 5 years 😀 all my cats will have a strong, typical face like this, or even better. I'm not looking right now, give yourself time. I hope to find one within two years, but honestly, it's mostly just luck. 🍀 I try to avoid cute faces on my C***s, but that's never 100% true. Because in a breeding situation, 50% are cute, 50% have mean faces, and the latter can then continue to work on the type. It's painstaking work and a long-term game. Thank you for being part of our breeding program and for having our Grizzlies, who bring joy to you and me.
