Premier Kralahome Smokey Joe - "Lorre" (Black Smoke)
Lorre was my first Rex Cat and my inspiration. You can read more about him on my About Us page.

Chenille Hasi Fantasi - "Hayley" (Tortie Tabby)
Born in 1982, Hayley had the face I will always look for in my kittens. I can spot that "look" in my own breeding and in other lines that go back to Hayley and her offspring and it melts my heart. Some of her babies travelled far and wide..

Lorrentino Laura (Chocolate Tabby)
Laura was Hayley's daughter out of Kralahome Septimus Spratt (Black Smoke) and went to live in the Van Frontenstein cattery in Switzerland in 1985. She can be found in many pedigrees in Europe and Scandinavia.

Lorrentino Lucina Galatea (Red Silver Tabby)
Galatea was a daughter of Hayley and Kralahome Redadare - "Bradley" (Red Smoke), who travelled to the Arden cattery in Sydney, Australia in 1987 and still features in some pedigrees down under.

Lorrentino Immandyf Lymee (Red Silver Tabby)
Mandy was out of Hayley and Kralahome Redadare and got Best of Breed no less than 6 times as a kitten!!! In 1989 she travelled to Miami, Florida to the Anserbam cattery.

Lorrentino Lucia (Brown Tabby) and Lorrentino Lofty (Cream Tabby)
Lucia and LB were from Hayley's last litter in 1990 and were sired by Erimicho Horace - "Horace" (Blue Tabby Point). Lucia went to Italy to the Cocoon cattery and can be found in some European pedigrees. LB went to Nova Scotia and founded the GreatBritain cattery.
but one of them stayed at home..

Lorrentino Lyndon Lionbar - "Lyndon" (Chocolate Tabby)
I actually sold Lyndon as a baby in 1984 but he came back to me aged 10 months and brought his friend, Shermese Rosy Squirrel - "Tessa", due to a change in their owner's circumstances. Lyndon slept in my arms every night for 11 years, and Tessa lived to be sixteen and a half. They had some lovely babies together, including

Lorrentino L Escargot - "Carmen" (Chocolate Tortie)
Carmen and her sister were two chocolate tortie girls who were born on my bed at 5.30am on the morning of a show in 1985!! Carmen had two litters of beautiful kittens to Kralahome Septimus Spratt before I lost her from cancer at the age of just three and a half. Her babies include Ch. Lorrentino Summer Likeness - "Pansy" (Tortie Smoke) who joined the Rubovia household in 1987, Gr. Pr. Lorrentino Loveisblue - "Willow" (Blue Smoke) who became a foundation queen for the Sangeorge cattery in 1988 and her litter sister who stayed at home..

Lorrentino Lookoflove - "Gina" (Blue Tortie Smoke)
When I lost Carmen, the awful realisation dawned that I hadn't kept a son or daughter from her. Thankfully, I was able to buy Gina back and continue with the line. I am still breeding from Gina's daughter, Lorrentino Luckyinlove, her Grandson, Lorrentino Levi Bluetab and Grand-daughter, Lorrentino Ishdbeso Lucky and her Great Great Grand-daughter, Lorrentino Lookat Daisymay. You can meet them all on my Devon Girls and Devon Boys pages.
