I started showing cats in February, 1976, with a household pet I
adopted from the Yolo County Animal Shelter in Woodland, California.
Through my participation in the shows, I met many wonderful people and
learned about the cat fancy and pedigreed cats.
I purchased my first American Shorthair, Pr. Cartier Country Boy of
Kenipurr, in October, 1976, and my first Abyssinian, Ch. Amon Sul Sun
Song of Kenipurr, in January, 1979. Kenipurr cattery was first
registered in CFA in September, 1979, then later in ACFA and TICA. I
began in Sunnyvale, California, then moved to the Puget Sound area of
Washington state in 1983. Through the cat shows, I became interested in
the Japanese Bobtails, and received my first shorthaired JBT, GrPr.
Kurisumasu Jin of Kenipurr,
in September of 1996.
Kenipurr has bred or owned 74 CFA Grand Champions and Grand Premiers in six
breeds: Abyssinians, American Shorthairs, Japanese Bobtails, American Wirehairs, Colorpoint Shorthair, and Scottish
Fold. Twenty-five of those cats have been Regional Winners; twelve were
National Color Winners.
I've just finished showing GrCh, RW Kichoo Kori of Kenipurr to Regional 9th Best Cat and fourth Best of Breed Nationally;
GrCh Kurisumasu Hatsu-mimi of Kenipurr, GrCh Kenipurr's Hanabi of Kurisumasu, and GrCh Kenipurr's Tanikaze of Kurisumasu to National Color wins; and GrPr, RW Kenipurr's Cubbie Bear (brown tabby American Shorthair) to 5th Best Veteran in the Northwest Region.
I am currently a member of the CFA Abyssinian, American Shorthair, and
Japanese Bobtail breed councils. I am also a member of the Japanese Bobtail Breeders Society, Japanese Bobtail Fanciers, and the
Longhair Japanese Bobtail Breeders' Club. I am an active member of
several show-producing clubs in the upper Northwest, as well as participating
in local and National breed rescue.
