This is RW GC AG Zanadu Black Panther

I have been debating showing him in Premiership now that he is retired and neutered but have decided that what he really needs is a home where he can just be the wonderful cat that he is.

Nat is 5 years old, active ( loves his cat wheel) enjoys other cats ( he currently has 2 Tonk
”girlfriends”as well as a Birman one(since he is neutered there are no worries about an oops breeding).

For more information about Nat, message me

This little Tonk is now 17 weeks old and just neutered. He. Is a natural mink Tonkinese boy who likely thinks he is Birman. As he is an only child he was “given” a Birman brother at a young age.
This Tonky boy is looking for a pet home

Carly has now earned her 2nd tier agility title. This shows her first partial run on Saturday. Just after this aborted attempt at the circuit she showed Chelsea which toy she wanted and did the run in about 90 seconds. After completing all her show rings on Sunday we headed back to the agility ring. I requested the “bee” a big yellow bumble bee dangling from a line and away we went after checking out all the new smells. Well Carly checked them out. I just watched. We did 2 runs and kept the second one of 38 seconds( I was sure I heard 30 seconds but it was written down as 38 an I am not arguing . No video unfortunately as I was running with Carly

Please note that this was her last ring. I forgot to post in opposite order for the posts to be seen in order.

This is Judge Christine Ling. As you can see she trusts No Tonk to behave. The tail is gently held to prevent shenanigans. And yet Carly manages to get that little jump in there to get to the top once again.
Apparently her skills were rewarded as Judge Ling placed Carly best SH champion, 2nd best AB champion and 9 th best all breed cat in Championship. Not bad for her first time out as an adult.

Those Gleasons just didn’t expect such nautiness from this pretty girl. This time it is Elaine Gleason who was caught slightly off guard. Tonks are known for being little clowns . (Carly says that this is nothing. You should meet my sister)

09/13/2023

It must be noon, the girls are ready for their naps. Carly brought along her besty Taryn to keep her company.

Dances with judge!
It looks like Judge Chuck Gradowski knows the secret to directing a Tonk dance

09/13/2023

It was Carly’s first show as an adult on September 10th at the CCA show in Peterborough (remember I invited you to join us). This was her first ring and apparently Judge Robert Gleason was the first to underestimate her. The seemingly docile little Tonk took one look at the top of the scratching post and was on top of it much to the delight of the spectators. I wish I had the camera set on video
Bob awarded Carly 4th best SH CH and 7th best Short hair cat

This little Platinum point boy (9 weeks old) will be available to a pet home. He is located in California at Amimao Tonkinese. Please message me for contact info

If you are near Peterborough, Ontario mark your calendars. There will be a CCA cat show on Sunday September 10th showcasing a plethora of cat breeds including Tonkinese at the Peterborough Memorial Centre. Hope to see you there

Rider (GP AW Zanadu Rough Rider) was best cat in Russel Webb’s premiership ring today at the Midwest TGIF Fanciers show in Gray Summit MO. Congratulations Mary Ann and Rider

Taryn is a small Platinum mink girl who has been overshadowed by her sister and has finally come into her own. She is seeking and loving attention. Taryn is spayed, vaccinated and vet checked. At nine months it is obvious that she will always be a little Tonk with a big Tonk heart.

Carly had a great time at the Golden Triangle Cat Fanciers show in Cambridge, ON on Saturday. Although it was her first show she placed in 4 of 6 kitten finals and was overall 7th best kitten in show ( out of 30 wonderful kittens)
She is shown here with CFA judge Teresa Sweeney.
Our thanks to the judges who found a place for her in their finals and also to all 6 judges who handled her with such care and attention.

I had an early appointment so didn’t feed their usual wet food. When I got home you would think that the poor cats hadn’t had food in a week

04/03/2023

Rider is neutered, vaccinated and ready to go to his new home. He is platinum mink, six months old, very affectionate and a shoulder rider.

I had planned to show him in premiership classes but decided to show another kitten instead. He will be registered with CFA and could also be registered and show in CCA if desired. Or he will make a wonderful homebody.

Message me for more information.

New babies being born this morning at Zanadu. So far 3 little ones , looking like 2 girls and a boy so perhaps we have beat the curse of mostly boys. There are more coming .

We had a great time at the Ottawa Valley Cat Club's show in Nepean over the weekend. It was Tiffany's first show and after a few show nerves she handled it like a pro. Our tiny 5 month old even managed to impress enough to walk away with her first Best Kitten award in one ring. Of the eight judges, 7 of them placed her in their top ten final.
