O si yo,
Welcome to my web page. My name is Terri. My Indian name is "Turtle Dove". I belong to The
Amite River Band Of The Southern Cherokee Nation. Our band has an office in Baker, La. We are
members of the Southern Cherokee Nation in Ok. I am the genealogist for the tribe.
I have been raising Persian cats since 1988. I started with shaded silvers in the beginning, but now I
breed and show, solids, bi-colors, vans, torties, calicos, silver tabby, and smokes. All my cats are
CFA registered. I do all my showing in the gulf shore region.
I live in Zachary, LA., which is north of Baton Rouge. I have lived here since 1985. I am married
and have two children, a boy and a girl. My daughter, who is the youngest, uses the cats for her
babies more than her dolls.
My cats are raised on the floor, on my furniture, in my lap, on my head, ... Well, you get the idea.
They get a lot of love and attention... Which they demand! In other words, I guess you could say that
they are spoiled rotten.
Persians require a lot of work on the part of the owner with their up-keep, but the final result is
rewarding. Their personalities are sweet and affectionate, sometimes more than you want.
Kittens and some adults are available throughout the year. If you have any questions about my cats,
please e-mail me.
Thank you for stopping by.
Do na da go hu i,
Terri "Turtle Dove" Kilpatrick
