To say that Dr. Harry was impressed by the practicality and the ingenuity of the Litter Kwitter system would be an understatement!

And he was equally impressed with our fabulous Ocicats, which he thought were fantastic!

December 13, 2005 - Dr. Harry Visits Top Cat Breeder - South Gippsland Sentinel Times

The following article appeared in our local newspaper following the visit to Oz Catz of Dr. Harry and Jo Lapidge, inventor of the Litter Kwitter Cat Toilet Training System -

Australia's most famous vet, Dr. Harry Cooper, visited South Gippsland last week to meet one of the world's top cat breeders. Nola Kim from the Gurdies is becoming world renowned for her specialist-bred Ocicats and Burmese kittens.

The kittens caught the attention of Dr. Cooper who decided to film a story on the breeds for Channel 7's Better Homes and Gardens program.

One of the many attractions of Ms Kim's Ozi Catz [should read Ozcatz] business is that all kittens raised are toilet-trained, using the Litter Kwitter technology developed by Sydney inventor Jo Lapidge. Ms Lapidge was also at the Gurdies on Friday to feature in Dr. Cooper's program.

The Ocicat breed originated in America. The cats have similar markings to a leopard. Ms Kim said the popularity of the breed had grown to the point where there is now a lengthy waiting list for the kittens.

As people buy them the word seems to spread about how good they are. They have amazing personalities. On our website, people can actually see how they are progressing as they move up the waiting list. Most of the cats are sold before they are born." Ms Kim said.

The breed was introduced to Australia several ago. They've been around since 2000, but they're still relatively unknown. The rarity is one of the attractions for many people, along with their personality and strikingly wild looks. "

Ozcatz kittens are the first in the world to be trained using the new Litter Kwitter system. All cats adapt differently to the system, which trains the cats to make a gradual transition from using kitty litter to the house-hold toilet.

Oz Catz and the Litter Kwitter is due to feature on Better Homes and Gardens in February.
