Welcome To Our Site

My name is Sylvia Gibbons & I live with my husband John in the small hamlet of Sutton on the Shropshire/Staffordshire borders.

I have always been mad about cats & horses. John bought me my first Siamese kitten back in 1963 and I registered my Prefix Richdale in 1968. So I have lots of experience of the breed.

Shropshire Cat Club

I am a founder member of the Shropshire Cat Club & have served on its Committee from 1974 to the present day. I also hold the office of Club Vice President.

My Cats

I have fourteen cats in total, mostly neuters and golden oldies who live a life of riley as spoiled family pets.

I have three Stud Boys & five Breeding Girls, so I don't have many kittens per year, prefering quality over quantity. I aim to breed show quality cats, and have had my fair share of success on the show benches over the years.

Cat Shows
I particularly enjoy the Cat Shows, they are my little holiday & I have even been persuaded to steward for judges on occassions, all of which adds to my knowledge & expertise of the Siamese breed.
