Glistening Cats, Our Humble beginning

                        GLISTENING CATS, OUR HUMBLE BEGINNING

        Before 2019, we had an indoor / outdoor small "colony" of cats.

They all begin in 2014 with a pale silvery blue long haired kitten that neighbors didn't want, and she choose US as her home.   She was also semi wavy furred, with individual hairs being kinky, and "shimmered" in the sunlight as if she'd been sprinkled with glowing star dust or fairy dust!   I named her "Puff Puff" and she was another of the great animal loves of my life!  Her eyes were pale clear green.   I remember always, and still miss her deeply.    

        Puff Puff mated with a short haired black male cat from another neighbor (he exhibited a shimming coat also).   This pregnancy produced only two kittens.... a pale blue short haired male and a black short haired female.  Both of her babies "shimmered" in sunlight.   She was a wonderful mother.  Puff Puff was the sweetest natured calm girl.    Her two babies grew and were super healthy.  The son grew large and large framed, probably 14 pounds way passing his sister at maturity.  The daughter was smaller and more slender at about eight and a half pounds.  I named them Blue Puff and Black Puff, respectively.  (He also had some wavy kinky fur although he was short haired.)

        Her two kittens interbred at about one year old and produced a small litter of all black and pale blue babies.  We kept one black daughter... "Little Black Puff Puff".  

       Black Puff (Puff's daughter) had a second litter from a neighbor's long haired, blue eyed snow shoe booted male (he had white feet).  This litter produced, a black kitten, two gray brown tabbies (the girl was booted with a white stripe on her face), and a snow shoe marked blue eyed male... who was another great love and which I named "Pretty Puff".
