Tickety was in our
very first litter. He was such a beautiful kitten with such a loving
nature we just had to keep
him and he has been a very successful
show cat for us. He wows all the judges with his charming
personality, green eyes, rich apricot undercoat, silky coat texture
and excellent ticking. Plus being very generous with his kisses
helps. (What a Flirt!)
He is not the most intelligent cat in the World, but he is very
loving and adores everybody and everything apart from the vacuum
cleaner and window cleaner. The appearance of either send him diving
for cover - under the duvet on our bed!
Having reached the dizzy heights of UK and Imperial Grand Premier he will
now only appear occasionally at shows on exhibition, which is sad as
he adores being shown and admired by everybody.
We would like to thank
the following judges for thinking him worthy of his success :-
Challenge certificate -
Mr. M. Brace
Premier Certificates - Mrs. H. Dessauer, Mrs. V. Kilby,
Mrs. Hamilton, Mrs. M. Kidd, Mrs J. Price, Mrs. R. Gowdy,

As our most recent stud
boy (our home bred Horus) did not much like the solitary existence
of a stud cat and he had grown up with and been friendly with
Tickety we tried them together so Horus would not be lonely.
We were very unsure how
Tickety would take to life outside as he was a very pampered house
cat who enjoyed all home comforts, but it is a "match made in
Heaven" and they adore each other. Tickety returns to the house when
Horus has a girl-friend to stay, but the re-union when she has gone
is touching. He seems to really enjoy life outside, which is a great
relief to us.
He will from time to
time appear on exhibition or when there are special classes for
highly qualified cats at special shows.
We plan to put him on
exhibition at The Supreme Cat Show on 20th November 2010
where you can meet him on Club Row on the Somali Cat Club
table.
