Silk Truffle - 'Demetrius' - April, 2007
Hi
Nola, (just arrived home from his flight to Adelaide)
He's settling in fine. Crying every now and then (if I dare look away from
him) but playing lots. He was trying to catch the computer curser, then
he lay on my lap and went to sleep. He's just darling, purrs a
lot. I can't thank you enough for letting adopt one of your beauties.
I'll keep in touch with more photos and stories. Amanda
Hi
Nola, (next day) He has settled in extremely well, playing and
running around like he owns the place. He spent the night purring in my ear.
Definitely not shy, that's for sure. Amanda
Hi
Nola, Demetrius had his vet appointment today, he's in perfect health
(of course). They loved him at the vets, they'd never seen an Ocicat
before and he charmed them all purring up a storm. He had no problems
being handled by the vet or nurse so hopefully he'll do well at shows.
He's doing well, eating like a horse and running around like crazy playing.
Amanda.
Mmm ....
six letters, starts with 'O' and ends with "T" 'Special breed
of cat' .... mm

Hi
Nola, Demetri had his first show today, he was very well behaved.
Still doesn't like car rides so lucky it was only 5 minutes away, once there
he settled down nicely. He
won best of breed for Bengal/Ocicat and 6th best kitten. It
was a nice 1 ring show to start out with, he had a snooze after the judging,
which gave him energy to grumble all the way home again.

Hi
Nola, We had a lovely time at the show today - our first with FASA.
Many, many people gave compliments and congratulations to you for breeding
such a stunning boy. Three people in particular were shocked that
you let such a stunner go as a desexed pet and not a breeder - they think you
are a wonderful breeder to have such great quality cats - they were people
who'd been showing a long time and can remember when there were Oci's in the
ringer over here - apparently they don't compare.
Of course, Demetri just ate up all the attention, purring away with a look on
his face that clearly said he knows how handsome he is - he is right of
course! the whole day as people walked by his cage he'd stick his paw
out, which made them stop and talk to him. He knows how to work a crown!
The judges were from Vic, Qld and SA.

Strong Boning! Nice texture!! Nice muzzle!! Promising eye

What
do you think of this comment - "He
is what should be being bred in Ocicats" (shown
at a cat show as a Group 3 neutered kitten in South Australia)
Also
- "proper pattern, good spotting, solid
feel, beautiful eye colour, good eye shape, nice square head".
He was also placed 5th Best in Group 3 kittens out of 22 kittens in
total. Excellent results! I'm so pleased with my special boy,
thanks for breeding him :-) Amanda
