An Unexpected Phone Call
This is a photo of our and Kero's (Grand Premier Duberville Purcilla Andrez) first litter, which we bred thirteen years ago. This was the litter named after James H. Schmitz characters - Telzey Amberdon, Danestar Gems, Trigger Argee, and Heslet Quillan who we kept, who had a good show career, and was known to everyone as Quillan the Villain. Today, the guy who bought Telzey and Gem phoned us to say he had just lost Telzey (to cancer - 13 is a damn good innings for a Singapura) but Gem was on his knee as he spoke. He was looking for another Singa, but could find nothing on the internet and, indeed, they are as rare as hen's teeth now. We were so glad to hear about our lovely girls.
Gem was the very model of a Singapura.
Telzey wasn't, but she was all personality.
And he kept the names! This simply does not happen...
