... ABOUT US ...

My name is Liz Parker and I breed British Shorthairs in blue, cream and bi-colours. I am a member of the Feline Control Council of Victoria and am involved with stewarding and helping with the paperwork at our shows. I have also been a Show Manager.

We are a small cattery breeding British Shorthair located at Riddells Creek(about 50 minutes drive from Melbourne)

Most of our cats live in the house and all our kittens are raised in the house. We have had many calls expressing delight at how well our kittens settle into their new homes.
Our kittens are vaccinated against flu, enteritis and Chlamydia. All our cats have been tested for, and are free of, FIV and Feline Leukaemia.
I started breeding when we moved to the country in 1996. Prior to that I had worked at an animal shelter where I collected my current crop of domestic pets – 7 in all.

Missie is our bull terrier x and she loves her cats. 
All our kittens spend some time in the kitchen being ‘looked after’ by Missie before they leave us.

Our oldest cat is Dbl Gd Ch & Gd Premier Neuter Kaloofa Miss Matilda. She is 14 years old. She is a Grandmother, Great Grandmother and Great Great Grandmother to many of our cats and kittens.

Another special puss is Obanya Russet Tabitha. She is a speyed brown tabby British. She keeps Toby (our stud boy) company and they are like an old married couple; sometimes loving, sometimes fighting but she always tolerates the ladies who come to visit him.

ABOUT BRITISH SHORTHAIRS:

The British Shorthair is a medium to large, well-balanced and muscular cat with a relatively compact body and short sturdy legs. The head is broad and round with large round eyes giving a sweet intelligent expression. They are slow developing and generally come to full maturity at about two to four years of age.

The British Shorthair is usually patient and good-natured. They are an independent cat but can form strong bonds to a person or family. They are devoted cats and make ideal, loving companions.
