My
name is Lotta and I'm born in 1973. I live in the country, a few miles
from Gothenburg. The place is called Härryda. I live here with my cats
and my boyfriend, Patrik. I got my first cat when I moved
out of my parents house in 1990. It was a black tortie mackerel tabby/white
domestic cat. In 1991 I got my first Norwegian Forest Cat. In 1993 I had
my first NFC litter
between EC S*Tynäsudden's Felix Brown DM &
IDP*Bobadillas Cleopatra,
but there were only one kitten and he only survived one week. I have had a few "domestic
cat litters" before that (I know you shouldn't do that!).
But in 1995 I got my second (first) NFC litter. I got my first Turkish
Angora litter in 2000. We have 7 Norwegian Forest Cats, 4 females, 2 males
(one of them is a hostcat) and 1 neutered male, and 2 Turkish Angora females,
1 of them is neutered. And for you who wonder: no, I have no intention
to stop breeding on NFC! It seems like it's hard for some people to believe
that you can have 2 breeds at the same time.
I don't regret for a second that I got another breed beside the Norwegian
Forest Cat! You can learn a lot from it. Beside
the cats we have another big interest in our lives - old american cars.
It's "because" of this interest I name all our kittens by old
american cars. We have a Chevrolet Impala-65 Station Wagon and a Chevrolet
Impala-60 Coupé. In the summertime we attend several car meetings.
Every year we visit the Power
Big Meet in Västerås. It's the biggest car meet in Europe. Last year
it was over 12.000 cars in Västerås! So there is a big interest for these
old, big, beautiful cars! So in the summertime we attend car meets and
in the wintertime we (I) attend cat shows!
