ORIENTAL BLUE KITTEN
1 BOB GRAINGER SHIMILEETA MEMPHIS BLUE 37A F 21/10/11
A generally very pleasing girl – she is still developing and her ears have still to settle to compliment her otherwise good wedge shaped head. Very good oriental eye shape and setting. Eye colour is of a good green tone. She shows a slight pinch to her muzzle but the bite is level and her chin is firm. Good length to developing body with proportionate slender legs and lengthy tapering tail. Coat is of a good blue colour ,is fairly sound to root and is close lying. A delightful girl for temperament and was shown in good condition.
