We started with Sealpoint and Bluepoint Birmans and since then have breed a wide variety of colours, including Chocolatepoint, Lilacpoint, Redpoint, Creampoint and Tortiepoints.
In the past few years we have concentrated on our Chocolatepoints and Lilacpoints, gaining considerable success with them both here and overseas. We have recently purchased a Seal Tortie girl and so will once again be breeding Torties, Reds and Creams.
Our daughter Rachel has now got her own prefix "MagwaiBabe" and hopes to breed Blues, Torties and perhaps Tabbies as well.
We became interested in Bengals a few years ago and purchased our first cats in 1996. We have been slowly developing the breed here, with a lot of promotion throughout the country. We own Brown Spotted, Brown Marble & Snow Spotted Bengals. The Bengals have done very well on the show bench here, placing well in the annual NZCF awards for the last 5 years.
