Thanks, guys!!! I'm just so excited!
I'm home sick with a sinus infection, and this has been a nice pick-me-up this weekend!
Jamie Dog Trainer - this has been great for us! Not only to they have a great personality, but they tend to be hypo-allergenic. I have a terrible allergy to cats, and I have no problem with this breed.
It's interesting how we found out about this breed....we went to one of the "Florida Home Shows" at the state fair grounds, and a lady had these cats - saying they were hypo-allergenic....perfect for people who are allergic to cats.
We didn't end up buying from her (she passed away), but found this breeder in N.C. (close to the vacation home we have there). Karen (the breeder for both our cats and this new kitten) invited us over to spend time in her cattery - hold them, rub them on my face, play with them, etc. Not only did she want to be sure my allergies could tolerate one, but she also wanted to make sure we were a good, loving home for one of her kittens.
