Welcome to Vantana!

Hello and welcome to my web home, Please note we no longer breed Birman Cats however we haven't left the breeding world, Click here to see more, otherwise please take the time to learn about Vantana Birmans...

THIS IS HOW IS ALL BEGAN FOR ME: After 10 LOOOONG years I finally got myself another cat.  It wasn’t easy to find what I wanted always being a dog person I was new to the cat world All I knew I wanted a cat that would suit my personality, liking and lifestyle.

Finally I took the steps in being owned by a Birman cat, captivated by his mysterious expression, lost in his electric blue eyes and his sweet and adorable character was enough for me to buy my first Blue Point Birman male "Cinders Sacred Sash" late 2003. He was a PERFECT Christmas present not just to me but to my WHOLE Family! Apart from his stunning appearance I have been captured by his fabulous temperament. It is from this point I decided I wanted to learn more about the Enchanting Sacred Cats and dreamt of becoming a breeder.

 “Many told me that one Birman is wonderful but two are even better” How TRUE is this statement! My breeding dream became a reality when I brought my first breeding queen "Claudmar Sprinkles of Magic" and of course my second Birman cat.  Due to my nature, personality and passion I made a pledge to myself,, the breed and of course to the animals that I own. That I would do it right or not breed at all.

Vantana's motto and belief is:

 I was a registered member of the The Governing Council of the Cat Fancy Australia and Victoria

Like most people who have taken up their lives in this hobby will understand that everything we do is for them, including web sites. Yes I've designed a web site ALL for them!  After all, VANTANA is all about them, I am just their mum and the one that loves them tremendously, they are my pride and joy. My Fur Babies!

My pets are my children; they live inside a warm and cosy environment and are allowed to roam around the house as they please. My cats always greet people who come to our home and live the luxury of a pet life. When my cats are outside they are in a secure locked up area where they are free to roam within the cattery or on a harness and have lots of fresh food, water and loads of sunshine, toys and all the luxuries that cats deserve! My dogs roam about the yard during the day and share my bedroom of the night. Who says they're spoilt?

I was a hobby Birman breeder but have retired now for  a while, I bred simply for the love and joy of the breed; naturally my goal was to breed the best quality Birman that is possible. However as all reputable breeders know this is a tough journey but undoubtedly an enjoyable one.

Please take the time to surf, read and enjoy my pages, meeting my furry family from the beginning to my current family now. Don’t forget to also sign our guestbook and let us know you’ve dropped by.

Lots of kitten kisses

Take the time to meet Pus who was my inspiration to own a cat all over again

 These are the ONLY two photos that we were able to capture of Pus our little blue eyed orphaned Tabby. (1993) Pus was my inspiration in more way then one. He came to our home after we saw an advert for dumped orphaned kittens and we went to se them, being the size of my palm he was the one that climbed up my leg so he was mine to be. Pus didn't get a chance to grow old with us due to a very sad ending that did more to me then just loose him.

Coming from a typical European family home where our pet moggy’s or domestic short hairs were street cats and would come home for a feed, snuggle and back to kitty duties outdoors, in 1993 this all changed for me. Pus came into my life where I reared him by hand feeding him until he grew into a healthy sized kitten. Pus slowly grew stronger and with much love, the one thing that stuck out about Pus was that he had gorgeous blue eyes, a pet love and want I’ve had since I was a little girl.

On Easter Sunday 1993, Pus was only 4 months old and loving the outdoors we used to let him roam about. Coming home that day was a dreaded nightmare, as mum drove down the street we saw a kitten in the middle of the road dead…. My heart racing and me in hysterics I knew it was Pus. This shattered me deeply that I swore after that incident I would NEVER buy a cat and let it outdoors, because the scar Pus left on me I promised myself that if I buy a kitten it had to be pedigree and would live indoors. I would do right by the cat. Well thanks to you Pus and in honor of you I got back into owning cats and doing it right.... Hence the beginning of Birmans for me
