Incredibly this was the start of it in 1989, and I have been breeding Maine Coon&#8217;s ever since.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph-text\">At first like most people, I didn&#8217;t know much about the breed, as Maine Coons were fairly new to England, but since then, after lots of fun, big purrs and attending numerous shows, I have finally achieved the look that I have always been searching for.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph-text\">To this end, I have imported boys and girls from the U.S.A. and Europe<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph-text\">The wonderful amiable temperament of the Maine Coon has been ever present in our cattery. All of our kittens are born and grow up in our house. So it&#8217;s no wonder with our grandchildren, our two dogs, the music, and the usual noises that abound around the house, that these wonderful, exceptional cats are well balanced, and don&#8217;t let too much phase them out. Our new kittens are achieving the all round look, size, colour and personality that I have been aiming for.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph-text\">In the very near future I am intending to import from other lines to provide a wide range of interesting combinations and I am very much looking forward to this happening.<\/p>\n<table align=\"center\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"paragraph-text\" align=\"left\">Telephone\/Fax:- (01983) 616550<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"paragraph-text\" align=\"left\">Ryde<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"paragraph-text\" align=\"left\">Isle of Wight<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Visit us We are always very happy to show visitors our cats and the Isle of Wight is much more[&#8230;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":13,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"template-centered.php","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-29","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.kassaro.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/29","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.kassaro.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.kassaro.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.kassaro.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.kassaro.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=29"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"http:\/\/www.kassaro.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/29\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":185,"href":"http:\/\/www.kassaro.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/29\/revisions\/185"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.kassaro.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=29"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
