About us
My name is Silje Tungland, and I live together with
my husband Atle and my girls, Rebecca and Ingrid in
Norway's 4 th. laregst town, Stavanger.
I started to breed ragdoll cats when I got my
catteryname aproved from FIFé and NRR in June 2006
Animals have always been a big interest for me, especially cats, and my first cats were domestic cats. In 1997 i got my first cat of certain breed, a rehomed 7 years old siamese-cat called Elvis. I loved him so much, but unfortunately he died in cancer in 2001. I got my interests for ragdolls in 2004 when a workmate got her lovely ragdoll kitten- a blue colourpoint ragdoll, I think I fell in love that moment I met him. I soon decided that i wanted a beautiful cat like this.
Our cats live with us inside our house, and have acsess to every room and a balcony, or they come with us outside our house in harness if the weather allows it;)
Our cats are treated as loving familymembers and with respect.
My foremost aim with my breed is healthy cats with good temperament!!
