Sutekh is our lone different breed! We decided that it would be nice to have one pet cat which was completely different in temperament and style to the Abys ...
Sutekh was born on John’s 40th birthday in Slovenia. Bred by our friend Thea (who is a FIFe shorthair and oriental judge), he was selected as he looks most like his Egyptian namesake, who was God of the Underworld.
Since joining our home, Sutekh has learned many Aby traits including how to
jump (albeit not very gracefully), and in return he has taught all of my Abys to
speak Oriental!!
* In fact Sutekh was the very FIRST Supreme Premier here in the UK, since he won the title at the first FIFe show of 2009, and the new title was only introduced on 1 January 2009!
** A 'Distinguished Show Merit' at FIFe means that this cat has won 'Best in Show' at least TEN times, over a period of at least two years and a day - quite an achievement, I'm sure you'll agree! What's more, he won it (the tenth BIS, and therefore the title) on the same day that he became a Supreme Premier, too!
