TICA RW. SGC./CFA GC. WillowTreeRags' Apollo Amadeo
Sire: Ch. Angaline's Donatello (Blue Point Bicolor)
*2X TICA REGIONAL WINNER!*
*CFA GRAND CHAMPION* *CFA's FIRST SEAL POINT MITTED GRAND CHAMPION, in CFA HISTORY!* *CFA's FIRST MITTED MALE GRAND CHAMPION, in CFA HISTORY!* TICA INTERNATIONAL AWARDS (2007-2008): TICA INTERNATIONAL AWARDS (2006-2007): Test Results for both HCM DNA Mutations & PKD: Negative Apollo is our very handsome Seal Point Mitted. He is very special to me being not only my first show cat, but also a cat I bred myself! I am so proud of all of his accomplishments and how wonderful he is at the cat shows and at hme. He loves to be hugged and cuddled, a trait he passes on to his kittens. He is my baby, and sleeps with me every night like a big teddy bear. I couldn't imagine my life without him by my side. "Polly" is very loving, and easy going not only with people, but other cats as well. He is constantly purring and loves to give me big hugs! He is my favorite male (Shh!), and was born at our home, where he has lived his whole life. He has been very successful in the show halls, and has really held his own with outstanding competition. We thank Rene Knapp for giving Apollo his "BEST CAT" final in Montreal on November 24th, 2007, which means he is now a SUPREME GRAND CHAMPION! Newsflash: Since CFA just accepted the mitted & colorpoint patterns this year (2008) we have been showing Apollo in CFA. He has been doing very well, and we've received some very honorable remarks from the judges that we are very happy about. I want to thank Walter Hutzler, Gary Veach, Kim Everett-Hirsch, Nancy Dodds and Lynn Search for finaling Apollo, and for their wonderful compliments about him! One judge even said that HE wanted to be the one that Granded Apollo! Many of these judges have said Apollo was the BEST example of a mitted they had seen THUS far. Thank you all so much for your constant love of Apollo! THE LATEST NEWS: APOLLO HAS MADE CFA HISTORY FOR THE RAGDOLL BREED! APOLLO is now a CFA GRAND CHAMPION! This is an amazing accomplishment for a MITTED RAGDOLL! Mitteds were JUST accepted this year in CFA! Apollo is the FIRST SEAL POINT MITTED GRAND CHAMPION AND THE FIRST MITTED MALE GRAND CHAMPION! He is the SECOND MITTED GRAND CHAMPION IN CFA! Apollo achieved this honor at 3 years of age in March 2009. Apollo not only made history at WillowTreeRags by being our FIRST CFA Grand Champion, but also made CFA history! Apollo is also a home-bred kitten that we hand-selected, which makes this extra special!
 TICA TGC./CFA CH. WillowTreeRags' Hans Donsen
Sire: Ch. Angaline's Donatello (Blue Point Bicolor) Test Results for both HCM DNA Mutations & PKD: Negative Hans is our other home-grown king. He is the last litter of Lady Abigale Byers (our first queen), and holds those first founding, traditional WillowTreeRags lines in his pedigree. Hans is a very fluffy male, with the most bright, sparkling, vibrant blue eyes you will ever see in a ragdoll! He is perfectly marked, and although he doesn't love the show hall, he was able to achieve his Triple Grand Champion status! Hans is a very playful cat. He loves the kittens, and always rolls around and wrestles with them with soft paws. He is just the sweetest Daddy any kitten could wish for! He also loves his females. He loves grooming them, and laying down by their side with a paw reached out to touch them. We will be keeping some girls from him to be our new queens since his lines are some of our very favorite. Newsflash: We took Hans to a show at 3 years old where he placed in breed in almost every one of the rings, and received a 5th Specialty Final. He also picked up a few Best of Breeds. The reason we had not shown Hans as a kitten and a young adult was because he did not enjoy the grooming aspect. We decided to try him once more and he didn't mind it too much! Despite him being a bit stubborn with the judges, he was pretty good! Hans was awarded his Triple Grand Champion title! Hans is mom's baby and will forever stay at the cattery. We love you "Hans Fritz"! Pictures below are of Hans at almost 3 years of age, if you compare these pictures to the ones above taken when he was 8 months, you can see the change in the darkness of his color over the years. Hans will be retiring soon and then continue to live with us as our beloved pet that he has always been! If you are interested in one of his kittens, now is the time to contact us!! He will be breeding for only a very limited time before he is neutered. Hans' lines will live strong in offspring in our cattery, especially in his amazing son, TICA RW SGC. WillowTreeRags Claus Hansen.

Test Results for both HCM DNA Mutations & PKD: Negative Claus is a beautiful Blue Point Bicolor male from TGC. WillowTreeRags Hans Donsen & SerenityRags Savannahs Dream!

His wonderful coat bunny texture which is beautifully full and long in the right places, a nice long body, long tail and that wonderful playful, floppy, sweet ragdoll personality. He is perfectly marked, with not a dot of color out of place. His inverted "V" on his face mask is painted-on perfect. He takes the very best from his parents, and carries great lineage.
