Here you will find details of all the comings and goings here at Dazzlecats and any changes to our breeding programmes
December 09
After a lot of thought and much soul searching we have decided that our current litter of ragdoll kittens will be our last. Things haven't run smoothly throughout our breeding programme and the stress has finally taken its toll on us.
Faith our remaining, home bred girl will be neutered but will stay here with us as a much loved pet. She may also return back to the show bench once she has regained her condition from the kittens.

Ruby has just returned from stud at Olirose Maine Coons. This time numerous matings were witnessed so fingers crossed we should hear the patter of tiny paws around 22nd March. The proud daddy to these kittens will be TJ again.
We already have Tula here with us which is Ruby's daughter from last year again to TJ and photo's of Talei her other daughter can be seen on our kittens in their new homes page.
March 2010
Ruby's kittens were born 24th March. Mum and babies are doing really well and are in excellent health. We have a solid blue tortie and white female, brown tabby and white female and a solid blue with white boy
March 2010
Faith was neutered this week and we have decided after giving it a great deal of thought that Faith will go to a new pet home where she will be spoilt and pampered. We have now found that new home for her and she will leave her early April once she has recovered from her spaying operation.

A new edition will be joining us shortly here at Dazzlecats and that is Linnel Sunset Boulevarde. A great big thanks for yet another
gorgeous cat goes to our good friend Linda Dutton of Linnel. A great big shame and loss to the Maine Coon world for giving up breeding. We will do you proud with our girls from you.
June 2010
Izzy and Tula have both been out to stud this week (6th). Both have had successful matings so fingers crossed we should hear the pitter patter of tiny Maine Coon and British Shorthair feet around August 10th - 13th.
June 2010
Due to reassessing our breeding programme our Maine Coon stud boy will be joining us later than planned. We have once again begun our search for a suitable boy for our ladies here at Dazzlecats and will post information as and when we have found him.
July 2010
Tula is finally pregnant. Her kittens will due around 10th August. We are very excited and hope things go well.
July 2010
Linnel Sunset Boulevarde aka Savannah has arrived!! She is such a gorgeous little girl and we are so excited to have her here with us. She now has her own page on our website and you can read all about her there.
August 2010
We are patiently awaiting the pitter patter of tiny paws here at Dazzlecats. Both Izzy and Tula are very near to the end of their pregnancies now and should hopefully both deliver a healthy litter of babies. We will update their pages as and when the babies arrive.
We also have some little boys being assessed as our future stud boy here at Dazzlecats. So this is a very exciting time for us. Again we will post updates as and when something is definate about him.
August 2010
A day later than planned but without any problems, Tula's kittens arrived safely. Tula is the perfect mum to a red tabby and white boy, two cream tabby and white girls, a red tabby and white girl and a blue tabby and white boy. All of them are growing at an incredible rate and doing fantastically.
Our gorgeous babies will have their first proper photoshoot in the next few days and photo's will be posted on our nursery page.
September 2010
After a rather rocky start to their lives Izzy's babies that arrived slightly later than due are doing really well. Their photo's are now posted on our nursery and kitten availability page and there is still a cream self male left for reservation.
September 2010
Tula's babies continue to do very well and growing so much. These kittens are now all reserved.
September 2010
Sadly our search for a s stud boy continues. The little boy we were having assessed wasnt quite what we wanted so he wont be joining us so we are back to looking for a new boy. Again things will be posted as and when we know about our long awaited boy.
September 2010
Today 25/09/10 Georgia made her debut appearance on the show bench. She did very well and gained a first place in her open class, two 2nd places in her side classes and a 3rd place in a side class. We will post her show critiques from the judges on her show page in due course.
Well done Georgia we are so proud of you

Two of our older girls from our British Shorthair breeding programme have now been neutered and will be going to live out their retirement in loving family homes. Tilly will be going to live with John in Knottingley and Izzy will be going to live with her kitten from this last litter Thomas and Isabelle and her family in Horsforth. This will be our last litter of British Shorthairs now for a while.
A very big thankyou goes to both John and Isabelle and her family for offering our girls these very special loving homes. Its not easy parting with our cats but when they are destined for a loving family life, much more than we can ever possibly give them it makes all the upset so worthwhile.
November 2010
After having both our older British Shorthair girls neutered we will be having a break from breeding the shorthairs for a couple of years until we get our new breeding programme established with our new girls.
We will still be having litters of Maine Coons as and when our girls are ready to have their kittens.
November 2010
We have had a very emotional past couple of weeks with all our kittens leaving home along with Izzy and Tilly. This place is now very quiet and wont be the same. We would like to thank once again all the people past and present who have given our babies such fantastic homes.
November 2010
We are still currently awaiting our little boy to reach the grade before we can post his details on our website. At present he is now 4 weeks old and looking so lovely. We are in close contact with his breeder and once a definate decision is made he will be put on our youngesters page
December 2010
We are finally nearing the time to be visiting our hopeful new boy Fletcher just after Christmas. He is now almost 7 weeks old and doing very well. This is a very exciting time for us and we cant wait to finalise the decision for him to come and live with us. Fletcher will all being well come to live with us here at Dazzlecats at the end of February providing everything goes well with his health check and vaccinations.
Along with Fletcher we will also be making another decision about a very special female kitten called Wish. The wait for this baby has been 4 years and it has now finally come to an end and she has been born and is doing very well. We cant wait to meet both Wish and Fletcher and bring them both home here with us.
Details of both these kittens will appear on our website when they come.
January 2011
The new year brought some fantastic news for us here at Dazzlecats. Fletcher and Wish will definately be joining us here on 20th February. Our visit last week to see them finally after all the weeks of waiting. Just confirmed how lovely they were in the fur as well as in their photo's.
Fletcher is a gorgeous brown tabby and white maine Coon and Wish is a beautiful silver tortie Maine Coon.
March 2011
Fletcher and Wish are now here with us at Dazzlecats and settling in nicely.
