This is a recommendation from Mr and Mrs Redpath of Oxfordshire who recently came and gave one of my kittens (Phoebe) a great new home:
"We had been looking for a British Short Hair kitten for 10 months. We knew it was important to find the right cat, but it wasn't until we saw Ayana Cats and visited Elaine that we knew for certain Phoebe was the one. Elaine answered all our queries on email and arranged for us to visit to meet her wonderful cats and kittens. We agreed that it was best for the kitten to choose us, rather than the other way around. A stunning lilac girl with huge amber eyes and silky-soft fur nestled into my lap within minutes of our arrival and instantly we knew we
had found our special little girl.
Elaine gave us invaluable advice about food, litter, kitten care and how to settle Phoebe during those important first few days with us. When the day came for us to collect Phoebe and bring her home, we spent some time with Elaine and Phoebe's cat-family, meeting her Mummy and Daddy. From the loving laid-back temperament of her cats, to their glossy coats and bright eyes, we
knew Elaine loved each and everyone of her cats and kittens as her eyes welled with tears as she cuddled Phoebe goodbye.
We cannot recommend Elaine's care and devotion to her cats, as an owner, highly enough. She has a natural affinity with cats, understands their needs and consequently, produces beautiful kittens with loving temperaments and stunning good looks, who make purr-fect companions for all cat lovers. Mr and Mrs Redpath, Oxfordshire"
This is what Rosie Richards who gave one of my lilac kittens (Mr Bigglesworth) a loving new home had to say:
"I collected our kitten from Elaine in December 2007. He is a beautiful healthy boy with a superb temperament. He's fitted into our family life very quickly, and he has a friendly, playful and laid-back character. I found Elaine to be a very friendly and trustworthy person, who produces excellent BSH kittens in a caring home with lots of love. I would recommend her 100% to anyone looking for a BSH cat"
A recommendation from Carol from Basingstoke:
We have had the pleasure of homing a kitten produced by Elaine. The kitten, a blue girl who we have named Bonnie, is an absolute delight and has the most adorable personality. My husband and I have 3 other cats and we were quite prepared for a few days of hissing and spitting. However, we have been amazed at how well she has settled in and has bonded with our Birman almost instantly. She is so friendly and relaxed with no hint of nastiness and we feel that all of this is testimont to Elaine's dedication in rearing these kittens. Bonnie would not have such a sweet nature if she had experienced anything other than love during her first few weeks of life.
Elaine knew the personality of the kitten and was confident that she would settle and integrate well with older cats. Elaine cares very much for her kittens and my excitement at leaving with Bonnie was tinged with sadness as she was clearly upset at one of her babies going. I have been in contact with Elaine since homing Bonnie to reassure her that she has settled in well and that she has a loving home with us. I will also e-mail pictures to her so that she can keep up to date with her progress.
Thanks Elaine, from Carol

I had wanted a cat for quite sometime but was finding it hard to convince my husband, all he could think about was shredded curtains, claw marks on the furniture and clearing up mess!! We viewed a few kittens and it seemed the more we visited the more convinced about not having one he became. Then I checked out Elaine’s website, read her recommendations and decided to give her a call.
What a difference. I could tell at a glance that we would find a kitten here! we fell for our most beautiful lilac girl ‘Pidge’ although we could have chosen any one of her adorable kittens and been delighted.
We took her away that morning, she purred all the way in the car and as soon as we got in doors she had made herself at home it was as though she had always been with us. My friends cannot believe how contented she is. She sleeps, loves cuddles and purrs so much she almost coos like a pigeon hence her name. Of course my husband is smitten and why wouldn’t he be with those enormous amber eyes and such a loving nature we just couldn’t imagine our lives without her now.
We have nothing but absolute praise for the passion and dedication
that Elaine has to produce the most gorgeous kittens with adorable
temperaments everything we could have wished for and much, much
more.
Thank you so much Elaine.
Kindest regards Lena Morgan
