How it all started:

WillowTreeRags visited their first show in 2004 with Ch. Angaline's Donatello. Although I wanted to keep showing, Donatello did not enjoy it as much as I wished. Donatello had his last litter with Lady Abigale Byers (Xanka) in October of 2005, that was when WillowTreeRags' Hans Donsen was born. In February of 2006, Donatello produced a litter with TrexDolls' Clancy, a very large litter of 7, with a male kitten who immediately stole my heart, with his loving personality, huge paws, and stunning expression! There was no doubt in my mind that WillowTreeRags' Apollo Amadeo was going to stay with me, and make a huge impact in the show curcuit. These two babies, a branch off of Donatello, would be my two homegrown show babies, as well as my two kings of my cattery.

I started showing Apollo & Hans alongside eachother in August of 2006, and attended all shows in the Northeast Region (TICA), and also attended one CFA show with Hans, where he recieved his Championship title. Showing was a semi-new, exciting experience for me. I've gotten to know some of the best ragdoll breeders out there, and am very fortunate to have them as friends who were always there to stand up for me, congratulate me, and support me, especially when things got a little rough. Without these couple of breeders, I wouldn't have had such an amazing time showing, traveling, and competing (friendly competition) against their own gorgeous cats. These few people I would say changed my life, I will be forever greatful for their loving friendship. Thank you again.
I love you guys (you know who you are)!!

I also thank the people who have taken the time to introduce themselves at shows, and those who always believed in me.
