Rakiscats cattery was established in 1985 for the purpose of breeding red and tortoiseshell Oriental Shorthairs (and Siamese--or Colorpoint Shorthairs--in the same colors, i.e., red points and tortie points). In 1987 we added a shaded silver Oriental Shorthair program, and in 1990 we started an Oriental Longhair program, again specializing in reds and shaded silvers. Currently we are concentrating on breeding
the longhairs and the shaded silver shorthairs, with only one "red" shorthair litter a year to carry on our line.

Cathy could be a professional cat photographer in her spare time (what spare time!?!) so our page has LOTS of photos for you to view. The JPGs/GIFs are usually under 50k. Unless otherwise noted, all photos on this Web page are copyright
Cathy Galfo, Chanan, Paradox and Nalan, and all rights are reserved.
