He is such an amazing kitten and is going to settle in so well in our household. All the other cats have no choice but to go along with him as he is so persistent. He is a credit to you and your breed lines. Thank you so much for such a wonderful kitten.

Stella has settled down very well and is growing fast. She has her own selection of toys and the other cats think her food is delicious! Stella & Greg, my son, are firm friends and they are attached most of the time. If Greg is out she looks for him, and sits outside the bathroom when he has a bath! She is a really delightful kitten and she and Greg have their own agenda which is lovely.

Kind regards and thank you for a wonderful kitten,

Here is a photo of our two very handsome boys, Charlie & Oscar - both with the 'Rosery Magic' of endless love in their genes. They are not just part of our hearts, they have stolen them completely! They are just like their Dad, Ch. Typha Chatline (in fact Oscar looks a lot like him) - collapsing in purring heaps at any given moment and as you can see from the photo have settled in very comfortably. Nala, our almost 13-year-old Burmese is very happy with her 'toy boys' and has days where she acts just like a kitten again. Thank you once again for choosing the perfect cats for our family.

Love, The Chaplins xxx

Dear Rosie,

I'm sure you get lots of pbotos of 'your' cats, but I thought you would like to know how well Hobson is doing.

He is a great success, and one year old today! He gets on well with Alfie, our Jack Russell, they 'hunt' together! Hobs brought in two frogs, one lizard, and a young pigeon, with Alf's help, last week!

I love him to bits!

All best wishes,

Jane de St Croix

Hi Barrie & Rosie
Just a quick update on our two beautiful boys. They are both enjoying fun and frolics and have started to explore the house. Ossie is definitely the boss but OB is the vocal one, so much so that when Steve was on the phone yesterday they asked if we had a macaw!!!!! Really enjoying them.
Love
Kym & Steve x x

Dear Rosie,
I just wanted to let you know what an absolute delight Typhast Iolaus is. He's currently sitting next to me on the sofa, purring beautifully. We are all completely smitten! He and our silly Staffie, Sid, sat together quietly on the sofa last night for the first time after a couple of brief introductions on previous evenings. Iolaus (known to us as "Trigger") was extremely patient with him, allowing him to sniff and nuzzle him to his heart's content - although he did give a hiss or a growl if he stepped over the mark. Perfectly acceptable if you ask me - I'm amazed he didn't give him a smack on a couple of occasions! He's been playing (a lot!), eating, snoozing and exploring and has settled into his new home very quickly. I'll keep you posted on Trigger's adventures in due course.
Best wishes,
Luisa Wise

Typhast Loganberry, retired from family duties - she's a Bengal Queen Mother! A soft, kind, loving little leopard girl with huge green eyes. A beauty with a great sense of fun. Berry loves retrieving pencils to carry and toss. She performs exquisite 'mouse-toss ballets' with tissue paper balls. She is also adept at batting them back and forth to me (Rosie taught her!). Enjoys rolling herself up in rugs. Berry established a firm routine in her new home - retiring promptly at 10.15 pm each night. She relaxes for a bit, then it's 'leggies aloft' - where they remain throughout my goodnight kisses and beyond. It is a privilege to have her. She is my love, my companion. Highly intelligent, with an uncanny knack of reading my thoughts. Because of her breeding home, she's also a precious link to to my former Burmese, all of whom had Typha ancestry.
Best Wishes, Liz Herring.

Hi
This is a very overdue email but I am pleased to let you know that Lara has settled very well with us and our other cats since she joined us in March.

Our red Burmese (now 17 originally from Typha stock and probably one of Lara's oldest relatives) took her under his furry wing and helped her feel right at home! They share lots of cuddles as do we. She did not get the same reception from our brown Burmese X, Delilah, initially but I am pleased to say that now they happily engage in play and chase each other around the house when they are have one of those black-eyed moments. We celebrated Lara's 1st Birthday the other day with a family BBQ to mark the occasion!
Very best wishes,
Joanna Cook and Family.

Hi
I thought you would like this great close up photo of Leo ( from 2006 ) Eivor Rasehorn is the photographer. Winning best veteran three years in a row and being the oldest Bengal is Sweden is something for your web site club.

Love, Inge

Hi Rosie & Barrie, hope you are both well.

Just a quick update on our boy. He's still as wonderful as ever though we think we've turned him into the soppiest puss on the planet. He keeps us on our toes and at 11 years old is managing to continually learn new things, he is so intelligent sometimes it's unbelievable.

We love him to bits. We've often thought about getting a little friend for him though perhaps we'd appreciate more than he would.

We love the web site and were surprised to see pictures of Chester on the front page, we feel very proud. It was interesting to read up on his history and see photos of his brothers and sisters.

Kindest regards.
Gary, Shirley & Chester xx

The original website designer with the three loves of his life - Sabi, Honey and Columbus.

Just wanted to say hello and let everyone know how happy I am to be a member of Club Typha-Typhast AGAIN. It has been a while - far too long since we had our last Burmese cats from Rosie and Barrie.

Rarely does one see such friendly cats - only drawback is that we can't let them out without supervision as they just go up to strangers to say hello or if there is "danger", Honey (the Lilac) just lays down on his back. Yes, Honey is a male (Sabi's choice of name). But he is a real sweetie so the name is quite apt. (Honey's favourite titbit: PRAWNS!)

They are just adorable and so curious about life. Like Sabi says, our home would be so empty without them.

Hi Rosie & Barrie,

Thought you might like to see how Tiggings is enjoying his new home.

Today he ventured into the garden for the first time, then came back in for a long snooze.

He loves to be pampered at any opportunity as he's very affectionate. He's a fantastic new addition to our family, we love him to bits & enjoy every moment with him.
Thanks very much for letting him retire with us.

Yours gratefully,

Pet, Jude & James

Just thought I’d keep you up to date with a few more pictures of our girls. They’re growing so fast, and getting darker by the day. They really do each
have their own little personalities, Megansgirl loves to climb up us and her favourite perch is either Rich or my shoulder – while Malteezah will only let you carry her if she’s on her back like a baby. Malteezah has also really taken to the catnip mouse, and has just shown us how she can play fetch with it. Really adorable.

We’ve been singing your praises to our friends who come and marvel over the kittens so we might have to come visit with them when they decide it’s time for them to get kittens too!

Much love,

Carla

We thought you might like to see how the kittens are progressing – these pictures are from late June/early July (approx 17 weeks old). I think you’ll agree they have grown a fair bit since you last saw them.

You suggested we might be in for some sleepless nights, quite surprisingly they haven’t kept us awake once yet – either we’re tiring them out in the evenings or vice versa (suspect the latter).

They’ve settled in well and have gradually made most of the house their own – bookcases, shelves and window sills have been cleared as they’ve explored every nook and crannie – Glynis says it looks as though we’ve been burgled!! but glancing down at the floor paints a different picture and resembles an explosion in a toy shop.

We’ll keep you posted on their progress.

Dave & Glynis.

PS. I like the website.

Dear Rosie,

Although our cats are no longer living with us, they are still very much alive in our memories.

They were absolutely beautiful and they had such lovely temperament. Very intelligent and sociable; they could even open doors. They ruled our household. But what we appreciated the most was that we could leave them with you when we went on holiday knowing that they would be well looked after.

Mona

Dear Rosie and Barrie,

Thank you so much for letting us have Laila. She had a lovely life with us. We do so enjoy visiting you and seeing Crackadazzle her mother running around. It is like having our much loved Laila back.

Dear Mr & Mrs Alger-Street

I thought you might like to know how Rufus is getting on now he is just over a year old.

You warned me that he was very naughty!! He wasn't naughty exactly, more clumsy and acted first and thought afterwards!! I am afraid he was renamed Colin (the clot) as Rufus was far too regal for a cat with his nature.

He is an absolute delight, very chatty, so affectionate and now picks his way over ledges and shelves etc without sending the entire lot on the floor, only a few. I have had to throw away so many treasure that he has broken one way or another!! Who said cats tread carefully?

Kind Regards

Sue Anderton

Dear Rosie & Barie

Just a note to let you know the Bombay kitten is
fine (we still haven't settled on a name!). It took him a day to settle, and the Burmese was a bit over-excited at first - it was the first cat he has had contact with since leaving his litter, and we kept a close watch on them at first. By Monday things had calmed down and they are now getting on really well, eating and playing together,and grooming each other, and they sleep curled up together- they both seem really happy so it looks like everything has
worked out well.
