GCCFI Supreme Hibernian Grand Premier & TICA Champion Alter Ishcus Casper the Friendly Ghost ( – neutered – ). Cream-silver classic tabby (es 22).
Casper (we fondly call him Ghosty) is the clown of the house. He embodies everything I ever wished for in a Maine Coon. He is loving, super friendly, loves human company, and always makes everyone laugh. He enjoys visitors coming to the house and greets them with his soft chirping language. Casper is the best companion ever and sleeps beside me every night. He really does live up to his name! Not only does he love human company, he also loves hanging out with his cat friends. He is particularly fond of his younger relative Assassin.
Casper has also been very successful on the show bench. He won Supreme Neuter 2018 and holds the titles of GCCFI Supreme Hibernian Grand Premier and TICA Champion Alter. Unfortunately, just like myself, he suffers from a bit of travel sickness, hence I never took him to a UK show.

Casper has been quite funny on the show bench, you never knew what stunt he was about to do when being judged (anything was possible with him, from lying on his back with his feet up and purring to intimidating the judge!). However, whatever he did, he was always extremely entertaining! Casper won GCCFI Supreme Neuter in 2018 and made it onto the front page of the Irish Times! So proud of my crazy Casper !!! He is retired now from shows and is enjoying his senior years with his cat and human buddies.
