This page is dedicated to our current and past show cats. Russpurrz shows exclusively in CFA (Cat Fanciers' Association). We believe that showing cats is a necessary part of breeding. However, we do not believe in showing a cat that does not like to be shown. It is possible to work with a cat that is frightened, but a cat that is not scared, just stressed and angry about being in a show hall should be left at home. Of course, this is just our own opinion.
We have granded many cats. We are now up to 30 - 15 in premiership and 15 in championship, and we are hoping to have many more!

Abby went to Medina this year
in 2005 as a Grand Champion and we were very proud to see her achieve
winning the Founder's Award being the highest scoring birman in
championship! She looked beautiful!
"Abby" granded at the cat show held in
Collinsville, IL on 11/6/04. Don Williams did the honors.
We are very proud of this girl and very thankful to all the judges who
helped her grand!

Sire: GC Hurrah Umpire
Dam: GC Russpurrz Anu
Cupid is absolutely a love and
quite possibly the best birman I've produced so far. He did
very well at the big birman show in Medina, OH being only 5 mos. of age
and scoring as 2nd highest birman kitten in the show. We are very
proud of him and hope to be using him for breeding soon!

Ahavah is a meditation term meaning love. He is a seal point male - perfect head and markings - and sooooo sweet natured.
Ahavah attended his first show at just barely 4 mos. of age - he was against 8 other birman kittens older than he and held up very well, getting 1 best of breed and several 2nd best of colors out of 5 other seal points. Jois Jensen not only finaled him, but gave him BEST KITTEN in show!
Ahavah is continued doing well in shows as a kitten and an adult. He granded at the 4/10/04 at the Green Bay, WI show, earning more than enough points to put him over the top, although he only needed 5 points going into the show. He has gone to live with Dee Johnson of Jessibirs Birmans - Big Thanks to her for showing to GRAND status!

"Ziggy" is a beautiful, very sweet boy that helped his mother achieve her DM title. He is now retired from showing and will soon go to his new home in the Chicago area.
Russpurrz Atlantis
---- Atlantis,
Ahavah's brother, is a lilac lynx point male - great head and
body!!
My daughter has fallen head over heels in love with him, so I guess he
will be staying with us. The only thing I'm not liking so much
about
him right now is his eyes - I wish they were bigger, but it could just
be because he is a larger than normal kitten right now. His
markings
seem good - can see front feet markings well and back laces are looking
good, but nothing definite yet! He is a sweetheart and and likes
to lick you.

Trudy granded several months ago at the St. Louis show in April in Annette Wilson's ring! We have professional pics, but the scanner is on the blink, but we will get those up soon!
"Trudy" is a beautiful girl
that
has done very well as a kitten, getting into many finals, and holding
up
well against large classes of beautiful birmans. We have kept her
at home until Yoshi could finish granding, but she will now be out
again,
hoping to attain the Grand Champion Title herself. She is very
sweet
and has a phenomenal body.

DOB, Dam & Sire - same as

Xanadu is Cal's brother and
she
is a beautiful girl. She has perfect markings and a wonderful
head
and body. I actually like her better than Cal overall, but the
judges
usually like those BIG males :-). She has got some grand points,
but more importantly right now, she is making some top show babies with
her grandfather, Louie. We've done the breeding twice and have
gotten
excellent quality each time. I may never breed her to anyone else

Sorry for the eyes! I
learned
a valuable lesson in saving photos as they are originally in case of
flub-ups
:-). Bastian is a very sweet seal point male that is now living

Louisville, KY. He was our very first home grown grand. He
holds a very special place in our hearts.
