The Burmese
Finally, after one burmese ruling my house for years, I can call myself the proud care-taker of four burmese girls, three of those girls are also three generations.
The matriarch of my burmese girls, IP/GIC Indra Cats' Kitty Kitty Bang Bang better known as Bang Bang, sadly passed away on februari 13th, 2010. Her daughter, granddaughter and greatgranddaughter are a tribute to this great, social, sweet and unforgettable girl. She will be greatly missed.
Photo's of Bang Bang and her litters you can find here.
February 15th, 1997 - February 13th, 2010
I will introduce the four girls below.
Name : IC. Tenfold's Tic Tac Toe (neutered)
Colour : brown tortie
Born : April 11th, 2003
Dad : GIC Calisto van d'Ekster (brown)
Mom : IP/GIC Indra Cats' Kitty Kitty Bang Bang (red)
Tic Tac tested negative for GM2.
Tic Tac is one of the kittens of BB's last litter, a dream come true, because I really wanted to keep a tortie daughter of her. Tic Tac is the most beautifull tortie burmese I have ever seen, but maybe I am not totally unprejudiced. She is a sweet and gentle girl, just like her mom, but also can fly through the house like a lunatic.
Tic Tac has been to a couple of shows and she likes it, not as much as her mother who just loves the attention. Tic Tac has followed in her mothers' footsteps and had her first litter in the summer of 2005. Her second litter was born in April 2007, 7 kittens in 6 different colours. The brown tortie female from that litter stayed.

Name : G.I.C. Tenfold's Douala (neutered)
Colour : brown tortie (bur f)
Born : April 7th, 2007
Dad : IC. Windcharm Kittens Mighty Muppet (cream)
Mom : IC. Tenfold's Tic Tac Toe (brown tortie)
Douala is GM2 negative.
Douala is a kitten from Tic Tac's second litter. I wanted to keep a red or cream girl from that litter, but all females were tortie. While I was still thinking about keeping a tortie girl, Douala decided I needed a bit of convincing to let her stay.
She was just 3 weeks old when she climbed up my trousers and further up into my neck, there she cuddled up and fell asleep purring, who can resist that :-)) So Douala stayed. She is a real tomboy and thinks everything is funny, I sometimes disagree when she is hanging in my back again. On August 11th, 2009 Douala gave birth to her first litter, she is a superb mom.

Douala attends shows too, you can find Douala's results here.
Name : Ch. Tenfold's Bang Bang Boom
Colour : red (bur d)
Born : August 11th, 2009
Dad : Ch. Lilla Gråbos Acke Äppelgren (red)
Mom : G.I.C. Tenfold's Douala (brown tortie)
Boom is GM2 negative.
Boom is a kitten from Douala's first litter and with that the fourth generation in my home. I was hoping for a red or cream girl and Boom was the only girl in the litter of 6. Happily she is a red girl, so I got my wish.
She is named after her greatgrandmother Bang Bang and hopefully she looks a lot like her, not only colourwise. She is a great girl, social and cudly, but very naughty :-) She isn't afraid of anyone, her biggest friend and playmate is a Maine Coon neuter called Onyx.

Boom joined her mother and grandmother in the showhall, you can find her results here.
Name : Kleopatra von Folofena (aka Satin)
Colour : blue tortie (bur g)
Born : July 19th, 2010
Father : E.C. Silk Monkstone (red)
Mother : I.C. Hope von Folofena (brown)
Satin tested negative for GM2.
Satin is the latest addition in our Burmese family and when I saw her first picture I totally fell in love. But we don't want to be to impulsive, so I waited and waited. Satin became more and more beautiful and I still hoped she would be sold. But as it always goes Satin kept being available :-)
So it seemed to be written in the stars and together with her breeders we decided that Satin would come and live with me. She is best friends with Boom and Ocicat Cheeta and the three of them almost re-arrange my house. Satin is a lovely, gorgeous and sweet girl, a real cuddle but sometimes o so naughty.
Lothar and Nadine, thank you so much for this little sweetheart!
