Starr really only stayed with us by chance. I'd already chosen the kittens I wanted from the litter - Thistle and New Lightning. However, there was a last minute change of plan, and I ended up keeping her and letting Cherry go to another breeder. Starr surprised us all (and earned her name!) by winning Best in Show at only 7 weeks old. She is very friendly and relaxed, and reminds me a lot of her mum Kelty.
Starr was bred to Pumpkin and had a litter of four on 5 February 2004. There were two black bucks, a black doe and a roan doe. We'll keep one of the black bucks, and possibly the roan doe too. Starr was also a brilliant foster mum - Polly had a large litter of 13 kittens the day after Starr, so she looked after four of those too, to make Polly's job easier.
