~Highlander Cattery - Maine Coon Cats~
Description
We are a small cattery located in the Columbus, Ohio area. This is a family affair as you can see in the photo, my mother Joann Patrone on the right, my sister Tina Patrone on the left, and myself in the middle. My mother and sister live in the Youngstown, Ohio area, a short driving distance from Columbus. We share our cats and travel to shows two to three times a month. This is a photo of us accepting our Regional Award for GC, GP, RW Jkzoo Navarre Pikachu, a red tabby and white Exotic. The cattery was born from our immense love of all animals, cats in particular.
My family and I started our show careers in different directions. I started in 1993 with two Himalayans. I showed them in the household pet category, became hooked and decided to look for a particular breed to show. While attending a show in Pittsburgh, Pa I saw these fabulous huge cats and fell in love instantly. I had to have one! So came Darby and Merlin, my first two Maine Coon show cats. My mother and sister chose a different route as they loved the Exotic shorthairs so for Mother's Day in 1999 we purchased two Exotics from Jerry Kithcart and Steve Oster, Jkzoo Cattery. This started my mother and sister in the show circuit. What a great start, our first Exotic, GC, GP, RW Jkzoo Navarre Pikachu was Great Lakes Region's 18th Best Cat in Premiership for the 2000-2001 show season. Our first Exotic, our first Regional win! How much fun is this!!!
I have many people to thank for my start and continued successes. To Sharon and Bill Powell of The Cat Spa Maine Coon cats for mentoring and for the love of my life, GP The Cat Spa's Bravo Rocco and CH Highlander Danyelle. To Rick Hoskinson for Richson Lord Bexley, our first try with the Cornish Rex breed. To Amy Wilson of Luvdalot Maine Coons for designing my website and entrusting me with Luvdalot's Eli Yoder of Highlander and Luvdalot's Jazmyn of Highlander. To Ramona and Paul Shuba and Sue and Bill Storten, what would I do without you and the sharing of your wonderful cats. I am so honored to be a part of your successes.
