ABOUT BREEDER PRUE KERR

I started breeding Siamese and Burmese during the 1970's, successfully breeding my first GCCF champion in 1980.

In 1987 I became a GCCF Probationer Judge of Burmese, and was promoted to Full Judge of the breed in 1990, thus becoming the first person from Northern Ireland to become a GCCF Judge of any breed. I became a Full Judge of Tonkinese in 1991. At the end of 1991 we moved to live in the south of France and I now show my Burmese with FIFe, returning to the UK several times a year to judge with the GCCF. In 1994 I was appointed a Judge of Oriental Selfs and Tabbies by LOPF, one of the Independant French Clubs, I am now also a GCCF judge of Asian Group cats and a Probationer Judge of Devon and Cornish Rex.

I was a founding member of the French "Club du Chat Burmese" which was founded in 1993, and its Presidente until 2003. I am currently the Genetics Advisor of the newly formed "Club du Burmese Anglais". The Club aims to encourage the breeding of Burmese cats which conform to "English type" (FIFe/GCCF) standard.

In 2000 I bought my first Burmilla, (now Ch of Europe) Bellabonny Enigma Variations, from Gwen D'Arcy. In her second litter she produced One Champion of Europe and three Grand Int Champions. I am also a judge of Asian Group (including Burmilla) and Probationer Judge of Devon and Cornish Rex.
