Poppy
Miakira Papaver Dulce
This is Papaver Dulce, meaning ‘Sweet Poppy’, our foundation Siberian Queen.
Poppy is an incredibly sweet natured girl; loving and gentle she likes to come and sit on my lap while I'm watching TV, or lie on Martin's chest so he can't move in the mornings. She absolutely loves being the centre of attention and is happy to be hugged and stroked by everyone she meets. Poppy is also very inquisitive and likes to follow us around the house, contributing a helping paw wherever she can; she is particularly useful if you need any paper hole punched! Poppy has earnt herself the nickname 'Scampycat', which describes her perfectly when shes in her run round and round the house chasing and attacking anything that moves and a lot of things that don't mood! She also likes to spend time sitting on the very top her cat tree looking out of the dining room window, playing with her favourite feathery fish toy and eating (preferably fresh chicken or mince please).
So far our girl has been doing very well on the show bench, being awarded a 'Merit' at every show we've been to. She gets placed 1st, 2nd or 3rd in almost every misc class she enters and has received some brilliant comments from the judges (all of whom mention how lovely her temperament is)!
Being a beautiful blue-cream tortie tabbie means we can expect a wide variety of colours in her offspring (including blues, creams, reds, browns, blacks and silvers) which should be very exciting.
Poppy came to us from the Miakira cattery – she is a truly international girl with both Russian and German lines in her pedigree. Thank you Tracey for entrusting us with such a special girl.
