Calico Calico

His owner has sold her house and needs to be overseas for an extended period. She is very eager for him to go to a loving, good home where he will be pampered and receive loads of TLC and love. His owner has asked if his new people could fund his transport.

She says "He is an indoor only animal and gets along well with another cat. He's a gentle giant, curious, affectionate and loves attention and pats. He is easy to brush and groom and has a favourite moon chair (as pictured) and blanket which I'll provide with him. He is an indoor only animal and has never lived outside, but has on a couple of occasions been taken on a lead in a body harness around the garden outside and handles that well. He is fully vaccinated and desexed with vaccinations due on 26 May 2026. His microchip number is: 953010001283701.

He comes with registration of pedigree papers and the original folder that I received when I had acquired him. He is a lovely gentle giant and is suited to a female owner as that is all he's known. His parents are US CH Michaelcat PM Peter (Imp HKG) (Sire) and Jaymlynkatz White Rose (Imp NZ) Dam
Calico's date of birth is 13 December 2016."

There once was a home and cattery filled with Birmans,  the Sacred Cat of Burma.   Long haired, graceful and blue-eyed, they completed my life for several years.

But then one day, I set eyes on a magnificently beautiful breed in a cat encyclopaedia, the Norwegian Forest Cat.   Searching the Internet, I came across a breeder who was about to import the first of these cats to Australia.   Her kind agreement to let me buy one of her first kittens marked the beginning of a new phase of life for me, and I have never looked back.

After many tiny white Birman kittens, I was thrilled and excited by the wonderful colours of my first NFC litters, and registered my cattery prefix as 'Borealis', reflecting the rainbow colours of the Aurora Borealis, witnessed at its best in Norway, original home of my chosen breed.

However, I was soon to discover that this colourful cat was also intelligent, wise, patient, gentle, loving and affectionate, with the loyalty and devotion of a dog and the unconditional love of a very special feline. Now, there is not a day that I don't marvel at the different purr-sonalities amongst my Forest Cats, admire their athletic grace, revel in their purrs and chirrups, and laugh at their kittenish antics.

Come, share with me the beauty of these lovely cats.....and to read a bit about Borealis Cats history, please click here
