Brown Mackerel Tabby and White
Yoshi truly is one of those cats that comes maybe once in a lifetime. A very special Exotic Shorthair, he has the sweetest love-bug personality, always by my side he will follow me into every room and wants to be cuddled. He has excellent boning, amazing size, wonderful top head, with a beautiful expression, and he truly meets the standard for the breed. I am so lucky that his breeder, Lisa Thostenson with Purrtopia, agreed to let me have him as the foundation of my Exotic Shorthair breeding program. He has an impressive pedigree with National winner and Regional Winner lines.
In September 2023 Yoshi Granded in ACFA after only two shows! He ended the 2023/2024 show season with Regional Winner titles: 16th BEST CAT- Adult as well as Best Exotic Shorthair - Adult in the North Central Region!! He also ended the CFA 2023/2024 season with two Regional Award Winner titles!!
I expect his litters to be just as amazing as he is. He has already produced some of the most gorgeous kittens who are winning in the ring.

Silver Mackerel Tabby and White (Persian)
Comic is an absolutely stunning Silver Mackerel Tabby and White pure Persian boy. He has the sweetest, spunkiest personality and truly lives up to his name as he is the Comic Relief of the house!! Being goofy and silly just comes so natural to him, but he is also such a lover and enjoys taking a nap on our laps. At the tender age of only 8 months -- while being shown by his breeders at his VERY FIRST CFA SHOW -- he received enough points to earn his Grand Champion title! Not surprisingly, his dad (GC, NW, RW Cacao Intrusive Thoughts) was also a one show Grand Champion. With much appreciation, Comic was given to me by his breeders, Janet and Carissa Altschul of Cacao Cattery, to add to my Silver Tabby/Smoke breeding program. I am so fortunate to have this amazing boy with THE BEST eyes!!

Cameo Mackerel Tabby and White (Red Silver)
I am so happy with Sus, he is everything I want as the foundation of Everpaw's Silver program. He is the cuddliest clown, which makes sense since he is the son of our Sire, GC RW Purrtopia Bearpaw of Everpaw who is just a once in a lifetime dream cuddlebug cat. I entered Sus into his first cat show at Gopher State Cat Club in Crystal, MN at the very end of the 2023-2024 season not really knowing what to expect and he made an impressive 6/8 finals!! He has such an amazing personality, coat, and temperament, with natural ability to entertain spectators and judges alike with his goofiness in the ring. I am looking forward to showing him for the 2024-2025 show season and am excited for his future in the cattery and to see how he blossoms in the ring.

Brown Patched Classic Tabby
Colbie is what is sometimes referred to as a "Torbie" which is when a Tortoiseshell has tabby markings, and in her case she is a classic tabby. The bullseye markings create a unique and mesmerizing color combination. She also has a typical tortie personality which is known as "tortitude", she is a very sweet girl and has all the amazing qualities of the breed. She has an excellent head, good boning, with a beautiful plush coat. She will be shown in both the Kitten and Open class during the 2023-2024 show season and I am excited to see her in the ring. She is already proving to be one of the judges favorite kittens, receiving 2nd Best Kitten and we look forward to an amazing show season for her. Her pedigree includes National Winning lines from Joleigh, D'Eden Lover, and Boberan and we are grateful to Lisa Thostenson with Purrtopia for letting me have these fabulous lines for my program.
Colbie's show career ended a bit sooner than I would have liked due to mother nature calling and getting ready to have her own gorgeous babies. But before she retired from her show career she achieved some impressive results. She ended up with the Double Champion title in ACFA plus was 20th BEST Kitten and 1st BEST Exotic Kitten in the North Central Region. In TICA (The International Cat Association) she achieved Champion title plus International Winner and International Breed Winner titles AND a Regional Breed Winner Title as the #1 Exotic Shorthair in the Great Lakes Region! I am so proud of her and the bright future she holds as an amazing mama for Everpaw cattery!!

Fuzzball is an adorable teddy bear Silver Mac Tabby Exotic Longhair/Persian that I am having fun showing during the 2024-2025 season in the Kitten Class with ACFA. I am so excited to have her in the Cattery and am looking forward to a very successful future with her.

(Mazzie)
Solid Blue
Mazzie is a stunning solid blue female with an outstanding pedigree, huge eyes, a sweet teddy bear face, cobby body type, wonderful coat, and the best temperament, that we imported from France. Her meow is so precious you can't help but say "omg how cute!!" when she tries to talk because her sweet voice produces more of a squeak than a meow. I wasn't able to get her to any shows before mother nature called, but I look forward to showing her gorgeous babies in the ring. I am thankful to Frederic with D'Eden Lover for letting me have these lines which have consistently (over many generations) done very well earning titles. Mazzie has already produced some of the most gorgeous, loving, chunky, cuddly babies.
