CCCA Ch ACF AoE Gold PN Sharada Salaminca (Hons)

such a long name for a little girl so we just call her Inca or 'Stinker'. This little sealpoint has the sweetest nature and has been a great PR birman; amusing people with her antics, nose kisses and her smoochy nature at shows. She came to us from Sharada Birmans and I asked for a show marked girl incase I wanted to go to the 'odd' show; famous last words as Inca did very well at her early shows and then we were hooked, she won a number of Supremes, was rarely unplaced in Group and has an enviable collection of ribbons and trophies. 2007 saw her being awarded
Birman Neuter of the Year
5th Group One Neuter of the Year (GCCFV)
Birman of the Year (CAV)
Group One Neuter of the Year (CAV)
and Third Top Ten Overall Cat of The Year (CAV)
not a bad effort for a little kid up against some really tough competition including the ever popular persians and Maine Coons
Inca has earnt her semi retirement but will come out for the odd 'special' occasion - such as the Birman Club Show in May 2008 where she proved she could still mix it with the best taking Best In Group. Heather often refers to her as the 'one that got away' but shares our pride in her.
Inca is the most loving girl and, though she has a title a mile long. she wins top awards with us for being our bestest little bedbirman - what more could I ask??
1st February, 2009; Inca made an appearance at the first show of the year and was Best of Breed, Best in Group and then judged Supreme Neuter in Show! She was not sure what the fuss was as she has a number of "Supremes' under her little white paws but was happy to recline on her new royal bed (one of her prizes) while ignoring her rosette. 'Stinker' ..you reminded me how much I love to show you and I am glad you allowed yourself to come out for the day

PN Sharada Salamaya (Maya)

Inca came with her litter sister who was only a tiny little girl (half the size of Inca at three months) who, despite many vet checks saying she was fine, failed to gain weight or grow as she should; if she were human 'failure to thrive' would have been used to describe her. Heather asked if I would consider her a 'rescue' case and take her home to give her one on one attention in a family situation to see what we could do for her. As the weeks passed Maya began to grow (salmon, rump steak and chicken fillets must have helped!) and she grew into a lovely smoochy girl though not terribly bright
Watching the sisters grow up together we could not possibly seperate them and Maya stayed with us here in her purrever home.
Maya is a very floppy girl who is happiest when hanging out with her humans, being used as a scarf around our necks, she snuggles with the best of them and together with Inca are a joy to watch. May 2008 we decided to show her and she became a Premier Neuter at the Birman Club Show much to the excitement of my eldest son, Tyler, who considers Maya to be 'his' cat.
