Breeder Male

Born on the 24th December, 2006 in Japan, GC Chatile Da Vinci of Nekoland is our first male Maine Coon breeder. He is a very sweet, adorable but a little silly fellow and has lots of tricks of his own. He entered Hong Kong in the last week of May. As a 5-month-old kitten back then, he entered a final in the first Hong Kong Persian & Exotic Cat Club show held in June, 2007 and won the 5th best Allbreed kitten for us! We were overjoyed as we hadn’t expected such a good result on his new arrival.

Da Vinci earned his Champion title in the Hong Kong Shorthair Cat Club show in September, 2007, where he gained 4 winners ribbons. And in November, 2007, he was awarded 5 rosettes in a 5-ring show, in which he earned nearly enough points to attain the Grand Champion title. (In that show, he missed merely 9 points to be qualified as a GC.) To our excitement, Da Vinci finally granded at the December show, 2007, organized by the Hong Kong Cat Lovers’ Society. Actually, he gained enough points to be granded on the first day of this show, even regardless of the points he had accumulated in the previous show! Therefore, we are proud to announce that Da Vinci is a 1.5 show grand. Here in Hong Kong, there is a cute title for a cat which attains the GC title before he/she reaches 1-year-old, and that is ‘Baby Grand’. (He is also a Double Grand due to the high grand points he has scored.) I must express my gratitude to all friends of mine who have given me support since I established my cattery. To name but a few, they include my mentor, Mr. Raymond Ng of Manyee Cattery, as well as other breeder friends like Mr. Russell Law of Russmania Cattery and Ms. Sarah Ng of Silencedryad Cattery. But for their support, I might not have achieved my goal of granding my first stud boy so early!
