On this page we present you a selection of Balineses, which were of special importance for us, and some of them can be still found far back in the pedigrees of our current cats.
Gr.Int.Ch. Shilby Line's Beluga
Oriental Longhair, black-ticked-tabby, OLH n 25
dob.: 22/04/2015 - 08/2021
Beluga was a beautiful Oriental Longhair male, bred by Silja Moritz and owned by the Swiss cattery of Michèlle Schelbert. He is the father of our breeding male Boris and combines in his pedigree most of the Balinese lines with which we have also bred in the past. He distinguished himself by his imposing size, his well-balanced disposition and his characterful facial expression.
Ch. Xilvio vom Suedstern
Balinese creme-point, BAL e
dob. : 31/01/2006
Xilvio was the result of outcrossing with North American Balinese lines we got with his sire Balimoor Shining Light from the Canadian cattery of Mareen Davis. Xilvio is as big as his granddad Floyd but much more elegant. We were very proud of him.
Ch. Violetta vom Suedstern
Balinese, lilac-tabby-point, BAL c 21
dob.: 21/01/2004
Violetta was Kashmir's daughter and provided many offsprings in the French cattery Tezigue Cattus, which went to Great Britain and Switzerland.
Ch. Kaschmir vom Suedstern
BAL lilac-tabby-point, BAL c 21
dob.: 11/08/2001
Kashmir was unique in character and elegance. She was a hand-reared kitten. With her we experienced for the first time what a mother cat achieves in raising her 4 kittens, and what it means when she fails. But it was worth it, because she became a beautiful show cat and an excellent mother.
Int.Ch. Bewitching Suedstern Floyd
Balinese lilac-point, BAL c
dob.: 19/08./2000 - 2015
Floyd was indescribable, tall, shy and "very British". He did not even come from Great Britain, but from the Republic of Ireland. He influenced the European Balinese breed with many of his offspring. A real "eye-catcher" at shows, he was THE family cat for us, who stayed with us until the end. We still miss him.
Ch. Mirrormere Crystal
Balinese foreign white, BAL w 67
dob.: 03/01/2000
Crystal was enchanting and with her silky white coat, a fairy among the Balinese. She was Greta's daughter, but much more graceful, which underlined her fairytale look. She had 2 large litters with us with beautiful Balinese, and which we were able to breed in several European countries.
Gr. Int. Ch. Greta vom Suedstern
Balinese, seal-tabby-point, BAL n 21
dob.: 26/05/1997- 2011
Greta was a great cat, an "avangardist" in her time. Many show successes made her known in breeding circles all over Europe. She lived in the Mirrormere cattery and had many equally successful offspring.
Int. Ch. Graffiti of Noah's Ark
Balinese seal-tabby-point, BAL n 21
dob.: 03/02/1995- 2001
Graffiti was "graffity"; she had her name rightly, because a brush could not have drawn her more concisely than nature had already done. She was a real trendsetter that Balinese breeders still follow today. For us, she was a beautiful, large and lovely cat with deep blue eyes, the "original mother" of our Balinese breed, so to speak.
