About Me |
![]() Well, I'm not a breeder of just any cats, I breed Selkirk Rex Cats – there's a difference. In 2002, while working on a dog park I found 4 feral kittens. I took them to MEOW where I met Bonne Vevea and Julie Samuelson. I quickly became a cat person. In 2004 I purchased a pair of Pixiebobs. A friend of MEOW bred them and I fell in love with the breed. That same year Julie, who bred Bengals, talked me into attending a cat show while we were both in Denver. Two weeks later I entered my kittens in the household pet kitten class in Portland. I am very competitive, so naturally, I was hooked! While at a show I acquired a stunning Manx kitten called Seamus from my now very good friend Lyssa Paull. Through him I travelled all over the US and Canada. I was introduced to both The International Cat Association and the Cat Fanciers Association. Seamus and I enjoyed much success. I then rescued the famous Pixiebob Nativesons El Gato de Oro, from a run down cattery in Stanwood. He was famous once, and he became famous again at the ripe old age of 11. Thinking I might have a few Pixiebob litters, I chose the name Dramatails for my cattery. I thought about what the cat fancy meant to me – that's where the "Drama" came from. And I was handling PIxiebobs, who's tails do their talking for them! That's where the “tails” came from. I was a movie buff, so I decided all kittens would be named after movies. In 2004 I saw a Selkirk Rex Longhair belonging to Arnold Farley at a show. I was in love!! I wanted a silver neutered male. I ended up with a Silver Shaded Female with breeding rights – only because it was cheaper if she had one litter. No problem, right? Fast forward to 2024 and I recently went through chemo. I am healthy now but I have refocused my energy on family, friends, and myself. I appreciate all the folks I've met over the years and especially those who have my cats and keep in contact with me. Take care everyone. |
