Pascale says: At home here in France I have three cats: Pistachio, a Siamese Thai; Nougat, a white Persian silver; and Praline, a Birman. I have always lived with cats and I cannot imagine living without their presence beside me. Many people asked me to allow Nougat, my male Persian, to breed with their cats, but Persians aren't good breeders and after many unsuccessful attempts, I stopped trying to breed him. I also attempted once to breed Praline, but when I put her in contact with a male Birman outside the house, she stopped eating and cowered in a corner and was so unhappy that I never wanted to try again. I just thought, too bad she will not have any babies... So Nougat and Praline lived quietly together, and then what happened? Cookie arrived! Cookie was born in August 2008 while I was on vacation. I wanted to keep him at home, but as I had promised him as a gift to my friend and colleague, I had to let him go at three months of age. I often have the opportunity to review his progress as I see my friend every day. He was a lovely kitten and has became a wonderful young cat.

Nature won out! Cookie is delicious! Your description of breeding cats made me even more certain that these profit arranged marriages are stressful for these animals.

What a cutie! I'm glad you gave up trying to breed any of your cats with 'strangers' and agree with Natthecat's comment that it is "...stressful for these animals".

What an inquisitive expression Cookie has, just checking out Praline. Both catties are adorable and gorgeous. I, too, agree with Nattecat's comment. Too stressful for these beautiful babies.
