About us

We are Marcus and Maud and live together with our ocicats in The Netherlands. In the summer of 2007 we started searching for a cat breed that could fit our personalities. We both were and still are fascinated with the Bengal breed, but after doing some research we came to the conclusion that the character of a Bengal was not that good of a match. After further research we discovered the Ocicat breed! The ocicat has a lot of similarities to the Bengal but with a more friendly affectionate character. The choice was made; Ocicats it was. On internet we found a lovely Ocicat that was available for rehoming. In November 2007 we took care of Kaya, a 4.5 year old repository Ocicat. From that moment on, our love for the Ocicat grew more and more. More information about our cats can be found below. In 2016 after the passing of our first love Kaya, we took Yuuna into our home. She turned out to be the start of our little cattery.

From our love for the Ocicat came our desire to contribute to a healthy continuity (gene pool) of the beautiful Ocicat breed. That is why we decided to start breeding with Ocicats and register our Ocicat Cattery in 2017. We are a small cattery with the focus on healthy and socialised cats. Our cats grow up in a family home and are part of our lives. Our home is our cats home as well. This contributes to the socialisation process of the cats.
