ABOUT US
My name is Wendy Hackles. I live in the North East of England with my husband Carl,
our 4 children and our 2 Grandsons.
We
are the proud owners of The Beautiful Norwegian Forest Cat.We have also have a dog,( a Rhodesian Ridgeback ) and have had the occasional
Guide Dog Puppy boarding with us.
I have always had pets, even as a child. We already had a domestic shorthair,
Willow, but we decided that we'd like a pedigree cat
too. After months of finding out
information, ringing breeders and looking on the internet, we fell in love with
the Norwegian Forest Cats. In 2004 we got our 1st ever pedigree cat. We wanted to see what it would be
like at a show with
her. We enjoyed it so much and were bitten by the bug, as they say, that we decided
we'd like more than one pedigree.
We decided, after showing for a few years, to get our first breeding Queen. In July
2007 we had our first litter of kittens .
We breed as a hobby, and our Queens will only have one litter a year, although
it's usually every 2 years.
Our aim is to breed healthy, happy kittens with good temperament and to the
Norwegian Forest breed standard.
Our cats are part of our family and do not go outside unless supervised in our
back
yard. It is cat proofed to minimize anyone trying to escape and to stop other cats
getting in.
We go to quite a few shows, but sadly some are too far for us to
attend. We go as a family, for an enjoyable day out and if our cats do well, that is a
bonus for
us. Our children can be seen helping at the shows and taking our cats to
be
judged. We have made some very wonderful friends along the way too.
We are members of "The Aristocats Cat Club" and "The Norwegian Forest Cat Club" We
show at FIFe shows, which we really enjoy.
