One of the main reasons of breeding is to insure we are breeding to standard and to improve year on year and its a great honor to achieve in the show ring with our own breeding and strive to excel in all we do.
We show under the Cat Federation of South Africa working towards a specific look in our cattery along the Set Standard of the Persian & Exotic Breed which outlines a few criteria to gain statues on our cats. The Standard of Points & criteria for the Persian & Exotic breed as well as the show criteria can be found on the CFSA links below.
Here are our achievements to date and looking forward to many more years of success in the show ring.
