My name is Kathy Boland I have been breeding Somalis since 2001.I have two children Jessica 14 and Natalie 11 who help me raise and love my kittens and cats. We also have 2 dogs Missy and Nipper . Our family love cats so we have three neuter pets Smooch an Australian Mist, Rani a Burmese and Beau a Burmilla .
 

I started showing in 2000 with a beautiful Tawny Abyssinian Neuter, Nile Golden Globes who I named Oliver  (sadly now Deceased). While showing I saw the Somali and fell in love with their looks and charm. My first Somali was a blue girl from Queensland named Elshebeli Nadir, (Sasha) to us. Sasha was mated to BZ DB GD CH Farrington La Bomba and produced two beautiful tawny females : Katjessalie Bella Ciara and Katjessalie Gypsy . Sasha now lives in Western Australia at Joylincar Cattery as a breeding queen.
 

One day while searching on the Internet I came across a cattery named IKATI . The owner Janet Chrobok has Sensational Somalis .I was so excited to get my next breeding queen, Ikati Keera from her . Keera produced three kittens , Katjessalie Blue Bogart, Katjessalie Savannah and a little fawn who died.

In December 2002 I was blessed to acquire a magnificent tawny neuter QLD PLAT DB GD CH ACF AOE Starpoint Romeow from Daphne and Jack Spencer. Romeow is one in a million he has style, temperament to die for and great kisses. He is a terrific ambassador for the Somali cat. My aim is to promote the Somali cat so more people will fall in love with them as I did. I am a small cattery aspiring to breeding affectionate and healthy Somalis for caring homes . My dream is to also breed stunning show quality Somalis for all to see !!!!!
