...and they wore many desert colors...
Rakiscats cattery was established in 1985 for the purpose of breeding red
and tortoiseshell Oriental Shorthairs (and Siamese--or Colorpoint Shorthairs--in
the same colors, i.e., red points and tortie points). In 1987 we added
a shaded silver Oriental Shorthair program, and in 1990 we started an Oriental Longhair
program, again specializing in reds and shaded silvers. Today we are concentrating
on the shaded silver longhairs and silver lynx point Balinese.
