| British Shorthair Cats |
| My name is Jolanta Axon and I have been breeding British Shorthair cats for four years. I was born in England to Polish parents and have always had a passion for animals, nature, gardens and plants, especially blue flowers hence my prefix name. My prefix 'Delphinium' has been registered with the GCCF since 2008. |
| We acquired our first British Shorthair, Joeleblu Stardust from Ray Joel and immediately fell in love with the breed. 'Angel' as we named her, had kittens the following year and we kept Kim, as a pet neuter, from her first litter. See Boys page. Show successes began in 2007 with her kittens Oliver and Izabella and Oliver was our first bred Champion. Following this, we began to focus on establishing a blue line and bred our first blue boy 'Button', who achieved Grand Champion status! Yoella was our first silver tabby and is doing well on the show bench. Thank you to Ursula Graves for such a beautiful cat! Her daughter, Alice is our first home bred silver (black spotted) and we have high hopes for 'Delphinium Sweetheart'. |
| I specialise in the British Blue and Tabbies: including Black Silver Tabby, Blue and Brown Tabbies, both spotted and classic. My hobby is showing and also breeding kittens that are healthy and well socialised. I aim to improve the quality/standard of the kittens that I breed and excellent temperaments are paramount. My children Emily and Sophie love the cats and are a great help in socialising the kittens! They are wonderful helpers and partners! We are based in South Birmingham, within easy reach of the motorway links for the M42 and M6. |



| I am very grateful to some special friends for all their advice and support; including Eleanor Gray (Stonemarr), Zoe Amarilli (Amazolou), Patricia Absalom (Brynbuboo), Vicky and Vince (Vinmar), Dave Kinchin (Anwesol) Ann Stubbs (Positively), Denise Conway (Pampurred), Lizz Benson (Limatz) and Ursula Graves (Sargenta). Thank you so much for putting up with all my questions! |
