For us her character is of note as she is very level headed, never angry and a wonderful mother and always enjoys her cuddles with us. For those that are breeders as well, I tell you that Mei-Lan has been tested for HCM, PKD and dna tested on PRA. It is sad these tests are necessary for the genetic health of the ocicat. Of course we also did the bloodtests for FIV and FelV. All tests were negative.

 

 

The kittens of her 3rd nest are born on September 7th 2011. The father is our own Junior (Adoni Goobita Yangatin). The 4 kittens, 2 chocolate spotted males Ualan and Un Matou, 1 chocolate spotted female Umniyah and 1 lilac female Ulysa. We are very glad Umniyah went to a cattery for breeding. Ulysa stays with us. She will be added in the breeding program of our own cattery.

Of the second litter Ozspots Barwon is the father too. De 4 kittens were born on July 24th 2010. Sam, a cinnamon male and 3 chocolate females Shani, Singha and of course Sarabi. Sarabi will be used in our new breeding program (the oci-aby project) by our friends of the cattery Panthera Oci Kucik Burik www.pantheraoci.nl

Her first kittens, of which Ozspots Barwon is the father, were born in May 7th 2009. Oscar, Ozzy, Owen and Onyx, 4 beautiful males.

 

Kyra of Wildlook Cat's (aka Kyra) was born on 12 April 2009 and joined our cattery in Februari 2010. We are extremely happy with Kyra not only because her genetic contribution to the health of the Ocicat breed in The Netherlands. It is very important that some of her kittens( if suitable) will be used for breeding. To widen the lines, in my opinion, is a guarantee for keeping the ocicat healthy for the future. Kyra is chocolate spotted with a very balanced character, big eyes and silky coat with excellent spots. She is petite but with the right male we are hoping for excellent kittens.

Just like all the other Ocicats used in our breeding program, Kyra has been tested for HCM and PKD. The annual bloodtests for FIV and FelV have also been shown to be negative.

Her first kittens were born on July 15th 2010 and have grown into large healthy males. Rembrandt and Rasha both chocolate and Rowan and Ramses both tawny with expressive eyes. The father of these males is Dreamtigers Summer Night.

 

Adoni Goobita Yangatin (aka Junior) was born on 15 April 2010. He is a decendant of our beloved cats James, Robin, Atisha and Mr Darcy. We consider ourselves very fortunate that he has joined our cattery and breeding program.

He looks magnificent: a nice male head, great coat with nicely contrasted chocolate spots. His character is something special. He was bottle fed as a kitten and this has made him totally focused on people. Normally, Oicats are people focused but Junior is something else!

Junior also visited the Wagenrenk, a special animal clinic. In addition to blood tests for FIV and FelV he was also scanned for HCM and PKD and all tests were negative.

It is our intention to use Junior in a carefully planned breeding program. His intended partners are ocicat females and we also think that he would be good partner for Toi Toi Oci van Diem a F2 female from the oci-aby project. As a breeder we limit the studservice of a male on 2 year at the most. The constant repeating of the same combination we try to avoid to guarantee the diversity of the breed. Besides that we are not in for breeding restrictions, unless there is an urgent need to do so.
