SKIDOOSH BSH SILVER TABBIES

Silver classic tabby Blossom ( born January 2006 ) is our senior breeding queen.  She is a daughter of Grand Ch Evawill Diamond Lil and her father is our senior stud boy Ronaldo Silver Kane.    Blossom is named after the character in an old Tyneside folk song because  ' she's a big lass and a bonny lass, and she likes her beer '..  well I don't know about her liking any beer but Blossom is quite a character and is certainly the Queen Bee in this household.

The 'Divine Miss B' was also extremely photogenic as a baby with an  ' I'm here, come and  look at me ' expression.. Again at 6 weeks, some of my most favourite pics of her...

Below, Blossom at 4 months old, looking VERY much like her mum Grand Ch Evawill Diamond Lil on this pic..

4 months, amd out in the courtyard with her half sister Grand Ch Evawill Lilly Lucette ( my neuter Lucy ) and cousin Sweetpea, growing up now and getting to be a big girl.

Grace is Blossoms daughter, she is sired by UK Grand Champion Adhirsh SirHenry Humbug. A beautiful queen with a very good classic pattern.  Her eyes are a pale greeny gold, they may yet 'green up' like her parents.

Grace has had two litters, each of four fine silver classic tabby kittens.

Lily is Grace's litter sister, both queens being daughters of my senior queen Blossom and UK Grand Champion Adhirsh Sirhenry Humbug.  Lily has superb green eyes and an excellent jet black well defined classic tabby pattern with no brindling.  I should certainly be showing her, but motherhood has always got in the way of suitable shows I can get to..

Lily has also had two litters of silver classic tabbies, her second litter of 5 kittens having recently departed for their new homes.

Two pics of Snowdrop at just 4 months, already a breathtakingly beautiful little girl..

Snowdrop is my youngest girl born June 2008 she is Grace's daughter and her sire is my boy Ronaldo Silver Kane.  Snowdrop is exceptionally beautiful, perhaps even more so than her lovely mum Grace.  Lovely apple head, neat ears, round eyes with the sweet  open faced ' Owly ' expression that I love so much.  Her eyes are still pale gold so I have not shown her.  Snowdrop has a really lovely classic tabby pattern but is perhaps a little pale in her black for perfection.  She has an exceptionally clean pure silver.

Snowdrop is hopefully expecting a litter of black silver classic tabbies in October, and we are so excited about this very special mating.

Ruby at 4 months..

Update: August 18th 2009 Ruby has given birth to her first little family..

Ruby is now my only silver spotty, this young queen is another daughter of UK Grand Champion Adhirsh SirHenry Humbug and my Sophie ( one of my retired breeding girls)  Ruby was born in May 2008 and is a lucky kitten I kept from Henry Humbug's last ever litter.  Henry is now neutered and retired at the grand old age of 13 years having done so much good for this breed.

Ruby is simply adorable, from her raspy little purr to her paws like little fat velvet slippers..  I kept her as a breeding girl and not a show prospect, because although she has really good type her eyes are still light brown.  She has excellent contrast with her dense jet black spotting but she is a slightly darker shade of silver than I normally prefer, but with the right boy her kittens should be very nice.. 

She has just given birth today (August 18th 2009) to a promising litter of silver spotties and one silver classic tabby sired by our senior silver classic tabby boy Ronaldo Silver Kane.
