About my cats

I have shared my home with Russian Blue cats since 1978, starting with my beautiful boy, Champion Saphiriken Beau Bellis (1976-1991).  All my cats are directly descended from Beau, and share his gentle expression and sweet nature.

In terms of temperament, if you are looking for a subtle, affectionate, home-loving cat the Russian Blue may well be for you.  Their looks speak for themselves!  Russian Blues are elegant without being thin, with huge ears, meltingly soft green eyes, and fur that is short, silky, dense and plushy with an almost iridescent silvery sheen that is just made for stroking - quite irresistible.  The Russian Blue breed has an interesting history, with today's Russians all being descended from  cats imported in the 1890s.

I currently share my home with five cats and two kittens -

    ∙ Champion Siykat Stella Dushenka (Stella)

    ∙ Grand Champion Dushenka Mirabella (Bella), who is Stella’s daughter

    ∙ Champion Dushenka Sophia Bella (Sophie), Bella’s daughter

    ∙ Champion Dushenka Tashabella (Tasha), Sophie's daughter and

    ∙ Dushenka Xander and Dushenka Xariabella (Xander and Xaria), Tasha's baby son and daughter
