Catitude

1. Gentleness Mary is the definition of elegance and poise. She walks gracefully, like a true lady, and always keeps herself neat and well-groomed. Her refined demeanor adds to her charm and sets a calm tone in our cattery.
2. Activity Level Despite her graceful manner, Mary is impressively active. She often sprints through the house with strength and purpose. Her regular movement and play keep her muscles well-toned.
3. Curiosity Mary is always eager to know what’s going on around her. Whether it’s me working on the computer or unpacking groceries, she’s right there, watching attentively and inspecting everything.
4. Playfulness Though composed, Mary is easily engaged by toys. A flick of a feather wand or a rolling ball is all it takes to bring out her playful side.

Story About Mary

Our cattery is named in honor of Mary, the very first cat we welcomed into our lives—and the one who will always hold the title of Queen. Mary isn’t just special to us emotionally; she also made a remarkable mark in the British Shorthair breed. With a perfectly balanced face, full cheeks, and a powerful, muscular frame, Mary achieved her TICA Grand Championship in just two days—a performance few cats can match. Her conformation represents the British Shorthair breed standard at its best: short, dense fur; a broad, chubby face; and a compact, solid body. More than her looks or titles, what makes Mary truly unforgettable is her personality. From the very first night she arrived, she chose to sleep beside us, bonding with our family in the gentlest, most loving way. We treat Mary like our daughter—and she returns that love every day. It’s no surprise that all of Mary’s kittens inherit her outstanding physique and round, teddy bear charm. Each one is a sturdy, healthy, and affectionate British Shorthair kitten, making her legacy the heart of our breeding program.
