Welcome to Glamorgan.....................
Glamorgan Cattery was established in 1985 our motto is
breeding for quality not quantity
My
name is Grace and together with my husband Joe have a
small cattery in Liverpool where we breed
Dilutes Solids, Tabbies, and Bi-colours.
|
I
first started breeding Persians in Dilute colours and
bred a very nice cream male which won best kitten in
show a couple of times and did very well through his
showing years. I started showing Persians again, and
came across the exotic breed [ short haired Persian].
I
immediately fell in love with this breed. So we went on
a mission and found my lovely Black male Zack and we
never looked back from there. We loved showing him, and
won numerous awards with in the first 18months of his
showing career. See show awards page.
We
are members of the Waratah National Cat Alliance and
show on a regular basis we have made a lot of friends
through the years and are proud to be with this
association. |

Breed
Profile of the exotic:
In
the early 50’s there were many people that were inspired
by a vision of a short haired Persian.and one person
that made the breed possible is Carolyn Bussey of New
Dawn Cattery North West part of [ USA]
Exotics:
Renowned for their character both in appearance and
temperament, They also are very affectionate cats and
they form a very strong bond with their owner, and they
are also very playful, they are very popular for having
that Teddy Bear look which is that sweet expression.
BodyType:
Cobby
broad and deep through the chest, with good muscle tone;
short, strong legs
with a short thick tail
Coat:
Dense, plush, with a thick undercoat, in a wide array of
colors and patterns, including pointed.
Coat
Care:
The
Exotic coat is very easy to maintain much more than the
Persian coat. I guess that’s why they are called The
lazy mans Persian.
A
weekly grooming is enough to maintain the coat to keep
it in good condition and the short hair will not matt.
But they do shed their coats.
