“PINARDAN”  NEWS... of 99

Update 24. December 1999

On 19. January the new issue of  cat magazine "Geliebte Katze" will be available with an article about the Turkish Angora. A picture of  Ayla PINARDAN in the actual issue should make people curious.

New picture sites of our this year's Ankara Zoo Imports are ready.
Dervis, Can Bey and Siyah Sevinc came to Munich in May and we have a lot of fun with the youngsters. 

Care and keeping shows some pictures and tricks, which make life with a cat easier.

Our Awards have their own site now.

We test if short cat videos will be a part of our HP for future. Actually we still have problems. People with patience or large data lines can download a cat peep show now, which lasts only about one minute (8MB!!!)
 We try to reduce the data transfer, so in the New Year we hopefully will be able to present a new video each month

We introduce Toni's 1. litter 

On the foundation cat site some cats disappeared (neutered/spayed), some new imports can be seen there. 

We whish all visitors of our HP a Merry X-mas  and a Happy New Year (together with your cats). May your computers be able to work in 2000 also- like until now.

Update 20. February 1999

The so long promised chapter with funny pet pictures is ready.

We loaded the original English version of FIFe's Turkish Anora Standard

We made an actual new photo page of PINARDAN's A-Litter

17. February 1999
For the male that brought PINARDAN's next generation elegance and type we created a
photo page for Afacan. We will never forget him.

On 6. February 99 our homepage got one year old.
Of course I started too late with the necessary update, so it was not ready for it's birthday, but this is not so important.
Now it's ready and I am happy to say: "It's done!"
International cat show at KKOE in Salzburg, Austria on 30. & 31. January 99
Yildiz got her last CACIB at the age of one and a half years and is now International Champion.
We finish her show career now. She took part in 8 shows, once in every kitten class and three times for each title. Between all this she got her babies. As she never lost her top condition, we lost no time and now she is ready. That's what I promised her, although she qualified and we could have gone to the world show in Milano, Italy.

AYLA PINARDAN also took part on 30.1. She got an Excellent 1. in kitten class and was called again for nomination. She is a much promising little lady, excellent fine boned (we call her "the body"). In addition to that she's a natural show talent!
Cat, judges, Co-owners (beside Ayla's "fan club" of 6 people)- we all enjoyed that day and had a lot of fun.

On Friday 29. we got the message, that Toni reached the high necessary rabies titer for his export to UK. In Suffolk, as well as here this was party time. Antonio B. PINARDAN goes    1999.

Ayla was "calling" first time on December 27th at the age of FOUR and a half months! We plan to make a litter with her in summer. First I have to find a good male for her OF COURSE from foundation lines <grin>. So in spring I have to travel through Germany, to find her the best typed mate I can find for next PINARDAN generation.

New Foundation Turks are on the foundation picture site. I think there will be still a few more after my trip in spring!

What happened at PINARDAN Cattery in 1998?
