Nortonwood British Shorthair Cats
For many years I was a breeder of Golden Retrievers and enjoyed breeding and showing my dogs, and I am still sometimes asked to judge at local dog shows.
Since 1998 I have been breeding and showing British Shorthair Cats.
I have had various colours over the years, but my favourites are the British colourpointed cats and these are what I am concentrating on at the moment.
