GCCFI Tara IB Hib Gr Ch & TICA Ch Ishcus Franklin D. Blue smoke (as) – neutered –
Franklin is Casper‘s cousin and uncle (that‘s really only possible in the cat world!). I fell head over heels in love with him when I saw him as a kitten at a cat show. To my devastation, he was already sold to a breeder in New Zealand. Nevertheless, I tried my luck by bombarding his breeder with texts and messages if he could live with me instead. A week later he moved in. I am totally in love with his wild and feral looks and his contradicting introvert and quiet personality. He truly is a very gentle giant. Franklin is slowly building up his show career. He is GCCFI Tara IB Hibernian Grand Champion and TICA Champion and has attended shows in Ireland and the UK. Franklin is now neutered and continues to live with us for his retirement. See more info on Franklin here.
FriendlyGhost Falkor. Blue Solid (MCO a)
Falkor is one of Franklin’s sons. He has an amazing friendly and extrovert personality that he inherited from both of his parents. Unfortunately, he had a hip injury from a fall as a 6 months old kitten, hence at the moment we have decided not to use him for breeding until we can repeat the x-ray when he is over 2 years old.

Ch Ishcus Quiet Assassin. Black-silver classic tabby with white (ns 03 22)
Black-silver is my favourite cat colour and when his litter was born I had no choice, I was smitten! I was hoping to add his sister to the pack, the most obvious choice for keeping Franklin entertained. However, when I met him in person, he conquered my heart instead and he had to come live with us. He has the most gentle personality, and he is a real lap cat, constantly cuddling with his humans and cat friends alike. With as many cats as I have, he was the perfect match as he does not have a dominant personality and hence, he fit into my group right away. Like Casper, he has a great sense of fun and you cannot deny that both of them are closely related. See more info on Sassy here.
