3 kittens born 15/4/2010, 2 males, 1 usual silver 1 blue silver - both sold and happily settled in their new home.
The blue silver girl Sorafel Bertilissima (Bonny) is staying as a future queen.
A repeat mating is scheduled (details will be posted in due course). if successful kittens should arrive early October.
(most likely colours will be usual silver or blue silver).
Bertie may be homozygous silver as all his offspring to date have been good silvers. He definitely carries dilute.
He may suprise us by copying his father and carry sorrel. time will tell.

Please note that there are a few people on the waiting list so if you are interested in a kitten please contact me as soon as possible. and if you have found a kitten please do let me know.
Terms explained:
optioned kittens may be available as it means we are awaiting confirmation from new owner. Booked means owner has not yet paid a deposit.

Future litters expected/planned
2010
With a full nursery at present and 2 pregnant queens, we may have a bit of a break, but Reya should be the next queen to fill the nursery, followed by Bonny some time in 2010.
We do have a waiting list (first refusals) for various colour males and females, but if you are looking for a Somali kitten please contact us and we will update you on the situaton in due course.
We are also happy to refer you to other catteries who may have the sort of kitten you require. We do not have any chocolate or lilac queens which means no choc/lilac kittens unless we go to a lilac stud.
Waiting list does not mean you have reserved a kitten, it means that I know that you are interested in a kitten and I will contact you to let you know what I have available before I offer the kittens to other interested parties.
The Somali breed is relatively small, and a reference to the GCCF website http://www.gccfcats.org/brdsrg.html will give you some indication of how many somali cats were registered in the last year compared to other breeds. So you may have a bit of a wait to get a Somali and it is worth contacting breeders to register an interest in future litters if they have none at that particular time. However patience is rewarded.
We are members of the somali cat club and the Long Haired and Semi Longhaired cat club and can be contacted via their website if there is an issue with the contact form.
