Yarik is the heart and big gentle soul of our cattery. He is the kind of cat who will come over and nudge your hand, follow you from room to room, and insist on being where you are, a true velcro boy. He is affectionate in the sweetest, most uncomplicated way and has a reliably calm, people-loving temperament.
He began his show career with a Triple Grand Champion title at his first show and has collected many regional and international awards since, with his highest title being Quadratic Grand Champion. Over the years Yarik has sired many beautiful kittens, all showing his lovely looks and, even more importantly, his wonderful temperament.
