 TICA GC. WillowTreeRags' Bellevue Lady Astor
Blue Point Bicolor ("True Bicolor"-Chocolate Carrier) Sire: TICA TGC/CFA CH. WillowTreeRags' Hans Donsen (Blue Point Bicolor) Dam: TICA CH. Wiseacres Graceful Lady (Blue Colorpoint) *TICA GRAND CHAMPION* Test Results for both HCM DNA Mutations (RD & MC) & PKD: Negative This is our absolutely stunning, Lady Astor. I named Lady after the once lovely wife of John Jacob Astor IV, Madeline Astor. John Jacob Astor IV hailed from old money, the Beechwood Mansion in Newport, RI on the infamous Bellevue Ave, is where him and Madeline wed, and vacationed, a long-time family home. John Jacob Astor IV was the wealthiest person, accompanied by his wife, Madeline on the Titanic. Unfortunately, he perished in the sinking, after helping his wife to safety on a lifeboat, which she was eventually rescued from. Madeline delivered their first child that same year, and named him John Jacob Astor V. She eventually did remarry, twice, and gave up her Astor fortune, she was to inherit if she did not remarry. Lady is a Blue Point Bicolor, from Gracie and Hans. She is truly my pride and joy! She is everything I had been dreaming about from this combination. She has a lovely profile, perfect chin, change of direction, and head shape. She has perfect ears, set, shape, and size. Followed by a gorgeous long body, and nice tall legs. Both of her parents have lines that mature very slowly, and Lady has matured slowly herself. Two things I think that make Lady Astor especially breath-taking is her perfect inverted "V" on her face. It is just like her father's, and also her outstanding vivid blue eye color, just like Hans as well! It's been hard to maintain Hans' lovely markings, eye color, and head type in his kittens because it is so phenomenal, but Lady Astor is the whole package. She has a nice traditional pedigree. Her personality is spectacular. She loves to touch people with a soft paw, and wrap her arms around your arm to give you a hug! She is a purr machine, and just looking at her makes you want to melt! Everything about her just sparkles. She truly has that Hans "magic", that stunning, crisp, glittering look that I love in my Ragdolls, and seems to blossom from our foundation! The photo above is of Lady at about 6-7 months old. The photo below is of Lady at 8-9 months old.

She is a great cat with exceptional body length, and a big long tail. When you pick her up she is as solid as bricks! Silk has a great personality. She is so playful, any string, ribbon, feather, etc, attracts her! She will play with anything, and you should see her when she does! She flies in the air, leaps, grabs, and does flips for cat toys! She is quite the acrobat! On the reverse, she also loves to cuddle when she is in the mood! She comes up to us, rolling on her back, purring, and looking for belly rubs! She loves to be petted and loved. Her littermate sister WillowTreeRags' Majestic Hansdatter, a Blue Point Bicolor, lives in Brazil with Claudio & Rochester! Silk Stocking is also the 1/2 brother of TICA RW SGCA/CFA PR. WillowTreeRags' Irish Fancy. The photos of Silk Stocking were taken in York, PA by Chanan on July 10th, 2010. She is 1.1 years in these photos. She is a very large sized girl- tall, long, with big boning and a nice wide body and chest. She has perfectly sound structure, perfect leg alignment. A very healthy body and she has been great in passing along her fabulous body to her offspring, we're so thankful!

TICA GC. RhetoricalRags' Honeybun Hansdatter
Blue Point Mitted Sire: TICA TGC/CFA CH. WillowTreeRags' Hans Donsen (Blue Point Bicolor) Dam: BlessedRagdolls' Charlotte of RhetoricalRags (Seal Point Bicolor) *TICA GRAND CHAMPION* -2009-2010 SHOW SEASON AWARDS- *RFCI's 18TH BEST RAGDOLL CAT OF THE YEAR!* *TICA NE's BEST BLUE POINT MITTED RAGDOLL!* Test Results for both HCM DNA Mutations (RD & MC) & PKD: Negative Introducing our Honeybun! There definately is not a name that describes this girl to a tee more than Honeybun! She is SO sweet, but also very spunky and full of herself! Not to mention she is a very smart kitty! She is an extreme flopper and cuddler, and never fails to let people fall in love with that side of her instantly, when they see her being cradled on her back and flopped right over in our arms. She is without a care in the world! Many have been captivated by her truly outgoing nature. At home she tears through the house, down the stairs, tagging our legs, and running about! In her chaotic frenzy, she loves talking outloud...she loves to entertain and make us laugh! She will stare you right in the eyes and have long conversations with you, too! She absolutely loves being the center of attention! Honeybun gets her personality from her mother Charlotte, and father Hans, both of which are very spunky but floppy Ragdolls! Both of her parents love being the center of attention and are a tiny bit stubborn, which is very much like Honeybun! She brings so much life to the house, and the rest of the cats, she is just so fun to live with, and makes sure she gets her way, too! Besides Honeybun's "so-Ragdoll" personality, she is decorated perfectly! She has perfect white mittens on her front paws, and perfect white boots on her back! Just as the mitted pattern calls for, there is not a hair out of place. Her coat is longer than some of my other cats, but very bunny-like! She has a long, very puffy tail, and fluffy mane! She has big boning, and a thick body! Adorned with a perfect ear set, and FLAWLESS profile, there is not much else I could ask for in Honeybun! Honeybun was from a joint-breeding between me and my good friend Charlotte Dobachesky of RhetoricalRags. Honeybun's mother is BlessedRagdolls' Charlotte, who originally lived with me, before joining Charlotte's cattery when she first started breeding a few years ago. Charlotte's lines are from old west coast lines. Her father is QGC. OverlandTrls Scout of Ragbenchers, a big Seal Point Bicolor male. Charlotte is from mostly Ragbencher lines, which I love and cherish for their health, personality, and extra large size. Charlotte (the cat) was named Charlotte by me, before I even met Charlotte Dobachesky! I think it must have been destiny for her to have Charlotte, and for us to work together in making healthy, sweet, traditional Ragdolls! My thanks to Charlotte for being a great friend, fantastic breeder and allowing me to have Honeybun back as one of Hans' exclusive kittens! In the show halls, Honeybun was able to pull off her Grand Champion title in TICA in less than one month after entering the adult class at 8 months! In very tough, end of the season competition, Honeybun pulled off many Best of Breeds and finals. One of these days, we hope to bring Honeybun back out to the show halls, we know she'd love to go back and entertain!
A profile shot of Honeybun's perfect profile. You can see her perfect chin, aligned with her nose with wonderful depth. Her nose segment is straight, and she has a perfect gentle curve up to her perfect forehead, which you will notice is NOT rounded. Her profile is flawless. Pedigree of:
TICA CH. WillowTreeRags' Amelia 
Seal Point Mitted Sire: TICA TGC/CFA CH. WillowTreeRags' Hans Donsen (Blue Point Bicolor) Dam: Mendelian Geneva of WillowTreeRags (Seal Point Bicolor) *TICA CHAMPION* Test Results for both HCM DNA Mutations (RD & MC) & PKD: Negative This is our one and only Amelia, and what an amazing example of a Ragdoll she is! Even better, are the kittens she has produced thus far with Apollo! She is from two outstanding parents, TICA TGC/CFA CH. WillowTreeRags’ Hans Donsen & Mendelian Geneva of WillowTreeRags, and is the full sister to the magnificent TICA RW SGC/CFA CH. WillowTreeRags’ Genevieve Hansdatter! Unfortunately Amelia's mother Geneva had to be spayed earlier than we hoped, so we really cherish our Amelia living here with us, and her full sister Genevieve. Amelia went to her first show as a 4 month old kitten in Lancaster, PA. It was a HUGE class of Ragdolls, and she was placed in breed multiple times over much older more mature cats. She was promising from the beginning! Although she was only shown once as an adult, she was placed by one judge as Best of Breed (in another large class of Ragdolls, and of many males- some of our own, even her full sister Genevieve). This TICA judge commented on how the Northeast Region in TICA has some of the BEST Ragdolls in the world, and on that day, Amelia was her best Ragdoll in the show- pretty impressive we think! Especially coming from a judge who travels all around the world seeing all different Ragdolls. What a remark and testimonial for Amelia’s true quality! Need we say more? Amelia is a TICA Champion in one show. Of Amelia’s best traits are her sheer size, weight and boning. She is built like a boy and is one solid Ragdoll! She has straight legs, and a wonderful build. Amelia’s eye color is outstanding, like Hans. Her point color is intense- exactly how we’d want a Seal to look... SEAL! Not washed out. Amelia has a perfect white chin, perfect mittens, and perfect white boots! She has great type, great ears... everything about her is the complete package. Her kittens thus far have surpassed our expectations. What a pairing she has made with Apollo! Amelia is a cornerstone here now. Amelia is an attentive mother and loves her kittens more than anything else! She is always with them, cleaning and feeding them! She is a sweet mommy, and a wonderful girl!

WillowTreeRags' Apollo Amadeo (Seal Point Mitted) Test Results for both HCM DNA Mutations (RD & MC) & PKD: Negative Our lovely Miramar! Mira is the last kitten from IowasBestRags Holly, she is such a funny personality! She loves to be right up at your face, giving you kisses or checking you out! She is a total hoot! She loves to play, jumping through the air chasing cat teasers, and exploring everything! She is naturally curious. She is pretty quiet with her voice, but not so much with her actions! She is a Seal Point Mitted, and is PERFECTLY marked. Her front mittens are perfect, and her back boots are also clean as can be! She has a beautiful white chin and belly stripe. There is something about Mira that just instantly catches your attention when you lay eyes on her. She has huge, beautiful blue eyes that are so expressive, like both of her parents. She looks a lot similar to TICA RW SGCA/CFA PR. WillowTreeRags' Irish Fancy, who is her full-brother, from an earlier breeding (he was the reason we did this repeat breeding). Mira has a great profile, long body, and terrific boning. She is really going to help us maintain that "BULK" that her mother Holly and her full brother Clancy have! Huge thick legs, and big barrel-like bodies! Not to mention unbeatable and robust health that we strive for here. Mira is 1.4 years old in these photos.
