Aysha-Zen Burmese & Khao Manee Cats - Raised with Love and Cuddles in Eastleigh, Hampshire, UK.

I have been showing and breeding Burmese cats since 2000. From May 2009, I added the very rare and beautiful Thai Khao Manees to our family. This is my hobby/passion and although I pride myself on raising my cats in a responsible and professional manner, I am not a commercial breeder.

Based in Eastleigh, Hampshire, just minutes from the M27 and the M3. My cats are my beloved pets before anything else, and rule the home as an integral part of my life.

Kittens not used for breeding or showing are occasionally available for adoption to loving permanent homes as neutered pets. They are raised indoors and underfoot, and are always on hand to provide oodles of play and cuddles! They give me immense joy and I couldn't imagine life without them.

I keep very busy within the cat fancy, which is a hobby that I love and that engulfs every aspect of my life.

I have founded and am currently the Hon Secretary of the Khao Manee Cat Club. I am also on two working groups, working towards both GCCF and TICA recognition of the Khao Manee.

I am a member of the Burmese Cat Club, the Burmese Cat Society, the Purebred Burmese Cats Alliance and a Founder Member of both the Khao Manee Cat Club and the Novice Breeder Advice Cat Club (NBACC). I have previously served on committees for the TICA Burmese & Bombay Breed Section, the GCCF Tonkinese Breed Club and the Tonkinese Breed Advisory Committees.

In May 2007, I also joined The International Cat Association, TICA. Our Tonkinese and Khao Manee are currently TICA registered.

In May 2009 we welcomed Odyssey ChaWee of Ayshazen, into our home, and in September 2009 Odyssey Deethisoot of Ayshazen also joined us. In January 2010, we imported KaTee of Ayshazen from Thailand, via the USA .They are very rare Khao Manee cats, and we will be starting a new breeding program in January 2010. This breed has become endangered in its native country of Thailand and we are working with other breeders to increase to numbers before this beautiful breed is lost. We are hoping to encourage others to breed these stunning white cats, who are incredibly people-orientated.
