Retirees/Alters

In the Beginning were some really awesome cats that truely helped to give us our wonderful look of today.

We are forever greatful to the breeders,for these wonderful cats .

We wish to honor them here when they retire to their new forever homes.

This is the most difficult part of being a breeder, allowing our friends to go to their new lives.

We also wish to thank their new owners for giving them wonderful loving forever homes.

Thank You so very much.

Yuki was such a pleasure to have owned and loved. We retired him in 2011 as he was not happy as a stud kitty. He would rather be in your lap watching tv or playing with interactive toys than be cooped up as a stud. He just looks so happy, being able to bird watch from any room in his new home in Arizona. His favorite pastime is chasing the road runners from window to window.

Retired and living in Arizona as king of his castle.

CFA, CFF, TICA CH Cabincoon Yosho of Tac-n-tac DOB: 07-07-2006

Special Thanks to Gene and Gigi Haag (Cabincoon ) for this wonderful young man. We retired Him early so he could enjoy the quality of life that true pets deserve. hanging out with their family and being cuddled by their people at his will. He was and is a wonderful boy. Always into something (typical Yoyo)

Loving being retired with his new family in Massachussetts. They keep him propperly entertained..as he was and is the proverbial clown.

OK theres no chicken in here, I could have sworn you put those freeze dried treats in here. Are they in that cabinet over there ?

CFA, CFF, TICA CH TAC-N-TAC RUMI

Rumi was sold as a kitten all house trained and returned with some very bad litter box habits. She loved to leave presents in the bath tub "which is unacceptable to us". We tried for 2 years to break her of this with no success, We had several tests done to ensure it was not a physical thing where we were missing something medically. all of the tests we did were normal.

We finally came to the conclusion she needed something more than we could offer.

We finally found a wonderful home for Rumi in Massachussetts with a horse breeder that has a wonderful heated tack room for Rumi to reside. Rumi is such a loving cat and now I hear an excellant (play huntress) kills the mouse and bird has no clue what to do with them afterwards so she leaves them where Mom can find her trophies.

She enjoys being groomed and made of, I am so happy she has finally found her place , with love, afffection and free range pooping. she actually likes the indoor out door life. Thank God your new home is in the country on a very long private road. We will be posting new photo soon of the mighty Rumi.
