| Hello
Rosie & Barrie,
I just wanted to let you know how our
very new addition is getting on. Stella has an amazing
character and is just doing everything at 100
miles an hour! My son Joe who is six thinks she is so
much fun; they are the best of friends. I even caught
my husband giving her a kiss the other day so she really
has made an impression!
Hope your both well, take care for
now
Josie

Hi
Rosie & Barrie, hope you are both well.
Just a quick update on our b oy. 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
Webmaster 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.
T oday 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 greatfully
Pet, Jude & James |

Dear
Rosie,
It was so nice speaking with you today after all these
years.
Here is a picture of Csibi - (also known as) Typha Tovarish
being the beautiful daughter of Typha Dark Enigma. She
lived with us for 22 years 2 months. She was a very healthy
cat who totally dominated the household of one large GSD
and a stray tabby and us, being a very good natured fun
loving animal, who we miss very much. Although there is
more room in the bed at the moment!!!! Looking forward
to the next Typha offspring in our home!
With kindest personal regards - Brenda & Peter Kertesz |

| Dear
Rosie and Barrie,
I thought
you might like a recent photo showing Rufus the great
hunter on guard in the garden - he has brought in countless
mice and a blackbird! Much larger than him - how he
did that I'll never know. You were right Fonzie (our
Snowshoe neutered boy) and Rufus are now good friends
- meaning Fonzie has learned to be patient even when
Rufus is playing with his tail. The gardener is very
taken with him as he likes to "help" especially
with the leaf raking. He loves water. He has a water
fountain to drink from that he likes to wash his paws
in and then stick his head under the fountain to shower
- then he likes to jump on the bed soaking wet. I can't
believe he is already 6 months old - after Christmas
he will going on the dreaded trip to the vets - I guess
he may calm down a bit then. Hope you all have a wonderful
Xmas.
Best wishes
Rufus, Fonzie
and Hannah

Hi
Rosie
I would also
like to have a little photo of Leo on your club page.
Typha Omnileopard “Leo“ the first registered
Bengal in Sweden. He came to Sweden in 1995 and was
an immediate hit in the cat world.
Lots of people
got very interested in the breed and my phone rang all
the time. I competed with him in Independent because
Fife didn’t recognize the breed back then. He
easily became European Premier even though he sometimes
would have preferred to be the only cat in the show
hall. Now, when he is 10 years old he has returned to
the show circuit. (In Sweden cats can compete in senior
class (7 -10) and a veteran class 10 and older). In
September he was number one on the short hair list so
I’m hoping for the best (the show year ends in
December).
I´m
so grateful that you let me have him! And he has done
a lot for the breed in Sweden.
Love
Inger

| Hi
Rosie & Barrie
I would just
like to thank you for a wonderful addition to my family
and also the support you have given me as well.
As you can
see from the pictures Cyrus has grown very quickly and
is coming on in leaps and bounds (quite literally) with
his new life in London.
He’s
very mischievous and energetic, and always into something,
but I would not have it any other way. Cyrus has me
in fits of laughter with the things he gets up to, but
on the other hand he can be very loving as well, he
has a wonderful temperament and is too intelligent for
his own good.
I have sent
you a few pictures of Master Cyrus (5 months old) hope
you enjoy them.
Respectfully
yours,
Nigel

Hello
Rosie!
Do
you remember your Typha Northerncrown that we call Alfons?
(How can we forget?)
It´s
been a while since I wrote to you. We are all well and
Alfons is even more gorgeous now as a grown up gentle
"cat". He is always talking to us, letting
us know everything that has happend outside in the garden
as he is coming in for food or hugs. He is often sleeping
on my chest and I can kiss him as much as I want to.
No one can look at me with that much love in his eyes
as he can. I can feel it, see it and hear it. And I
love him back. I love him more than I can describe.
We all do, family, friends and neighbours.
Alfons
is still coming and going out as he pleases and if we
haven´t seen him for a while, we just call out
for him and he´ll come runnimg in a full speed
loudly telling us that he´s on his way.
He
is SO funny. He is SO smart. He is a cat, a friend worth
millions. And, as I told you before - he loves us with
every piece of his little heart.
I
hope everything is well with you, your husband and all
your cats.
Lots
of hugs from Alfons with family in Katrineholm, Sweden

| Hi Rosie,
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 |

Dear
Rosie and Barrie
Here are Marmite and Io after 2 weeks here ... They would
like to join your club and are sending in their photo.
They spent a long time walking over the keyboard to say
their favourite! They haven't had a single 'accident'
in 2 weeks and are absolutely adorable. The vet saw them
this week to add them to her books and said they are in
perfect health.
Lots of love and well done on a great website
Helen, Paul, Io and Marmite xxxx |

| Rosie
& Barrie, 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.

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.

Hi
Rosie,
I thought
you may like to see the attached. Kushka’s has
had a kidney infection, but – hopefully –
she’s on the mend. My vet had to carry out several
scans, take blood/urine etc and at one time she spent
two days in the vet’s on a drip, but he said she’s
handled it beautifully and she’s been “an
angel”. Since then, she’s made it very clear
she’s certainly not ready to join the rest of
the angels yet.
The love
and devotion I have had from her over the past 18 years
never ceases to gladden my heart. I may bore you with
more photos – if your computer can take it –
I am very so very proud of her and I can’t help
myself!
I hope everything
with you and Barrie is going well – I think your
website is terrific.
Best regards……………MARK

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 |

Hi
Rosie and Barrie,
As you can see Typhast Oneblue (15mth old Burmese Blue)
and Typhast Grand Entrance (16 week old Bengal named Smarty
Pants) are getting along fine.
Oneblue cannot stop cleaning him though, Smarty Pants
never stops eating so they make a right pair.
They both have such a wonderful temperament and we could
not wish for a better partnership.
Thanks for helping us find happiness just watching them
grow up.
Stay Happy
Shaun & Clelia |

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.
thanks
for everything,
best wishes
Tony
& Nicole
