Kids and kittens often enjoy the cheapest toys.







Somebody is in for a surprise!!
I could not resist that comment as that was exactly what happened.  The kitten crept out slowly but jumped straight up in the air when he suddenly saw the top kitten.
Those were the old days where films had to be developed for a photo.  In modern times we can just keep on "clicking".  Nice!

Siamese queens

The first siamese queen from our new generation of  three queens to produce and raise her kittens was Siamcadeua Galactic Ruby of Samoa Gems.
PS.  One of Siamcadeua Galactic Ruby's kittens have already prooved herself beautiful even as a kitten, in the cat shows in Durban.  Thank you to her human mom to go that extra mile.

siamese studs

 Siamese stud Supreme Champion Mistbesque Noir Chat of  Samoa gems.

This is a lovely boy with a lovely temperament. He is a supreme champion so it would be logical that he has overall excellent type.  His outstanding points are a very short coat and excellent top of head.

He is not large and heavy which is very good as the siamese is not suposed to be large and heavy.

That is my boy !!  He is supreme champion, easy to handel, brave and gallant with the girls.

Siamese stud Grand Champion Ashok van Atalia

Siamese stud

 Grand Champion Samoa Gems Ashok van Atalia
This stud had the longest legs I have seen on a cat.  That is something to wish for in the Siamese breed.

 Grand Champion Siamese stud imported from the Netherlands to Republic of  South Africa.
Samoa Gems  is grateful for the kittens this stud produced to improve the Siamese breed in  R S A.   He has retired some years ago but his line is going on.
He has a flat short pelt as well as a long body and legs, which is one of  the important traits in the Siamese.
This Siamese stud is a very friendly and easy to handle boy.   A real gent with the girls too.

Note those legs!  lovely....

Samoa Gem's American Curl Cat females

quality Siamese and American Curl kittens 
The curl  ear of the American Curl cat is the main attraction of this cat breed.
These are the American Curl females we are breeding at the moment.  We have been breeding with two girls most of the time, and the plan is to bring in one or two more females and red tabby and tortoishell.
We bred mainly with this line but many moggies have been tried in-between and most were bred only once.  One very good characteristic was constant in all the kittens, no matter how bad the ears turned out, the kittens were always very friendly and loving.   Most people who saw one  of the American Curls at a friend did not care what the ears look like, they just want the temperament.  
Samoa Gems Hoolycat


Katya baby kitten
 nearly 6 months old 

Our next queen.  She is at the moment a little princess. This girl is very lively and simply enjoys human attention.  Her kittens would be very good pets.  Important is that she is also healthy without allergies 

To Love Again  

Oh what unhappy twist of fate
Has brought you homeless to my gate,
The gate where once another stood
To beg for shelter warmth and food?
For from that day I ceased to be
The master of my destiny,
While she, with purr and velvet paw
Became within my house the law.
She scratched the furniture and shed
And claimed the middle of my bed,
She ruled in arrogance and pride
And broke my heart the day she died.
So if you really think, oh cat
I'd willingly relive all that,
Because you come forlorn and thin
Well don't just stand there - come on in!
