Dear Kelley, Just wanted you to know the happiness that emanates from the Bodacious “Bodie”. He is almost 7 months old now but the antics continue to evolve daily. He truly is the most amazing kitten we have ever owned. From the day we brought him home he was and still is fearless, curious, the smartest and most loving little feline. I forgot, he is handsome too. And knows it. His older step brothers, ages 3 and 10, are smitten with him also and give him guidance. Also they play more than they have in years and try to keep up with the rocket that runs through this house. Thank-you for the Love and Blessings that come “built-in” those little fur babies! Bodie’s love is evidenced from the heart shape of his little nose. His only quiet time is watching the birds perched high up on his cat condo. And I recall when he was just starting to play, you told me he was the instigator with his sisters and he would hide and pounce at your feet as you entered a room. He still does that too. We think every home should have a “Bodie”! The world would be laughing a lot more. Thank you, Kelley. Sincerely, Don and Jeanne Bondzio

Dear Don and Jeanne, We thank you for letting us know how Bodie has brought more laughter and fun to your home. He is very handsome and looks so adorable all stretched out. Thanks for loving him sooo much. It truly makes us so happy to hear that he is a blessing to your family.

Hi Kelley! Just wanted to send you pictures of the boys! They are amazing! Just had them neutered last week and my brother, the vet, did some baseline bloodwork for any future needs and said they are purrfect! Thank you for my new family. I keep an eye on your website and see you will be having more babies. I’m very interested in adding to our family, even better if it is from their bloodline. I will be in touch when the new babies arrive. Happy New Year and God bless. -Marlene Hartounian

Dear Marlene, Thank you so much for letting us know how great they are doing. The pictures are adorable! The picture of William and Harry in the sink is beyond cute. They are obviously Princes’ of the house. We are incredibly happy that they are doing so well and are blessed that they have found a loving home with you and your family.

Hi Kelley – My kitties will be a year old on Thursday and just thought you would like to see them. They are so cute and such a joy! Both are doing very well and are happy and so good. Attached is a photo taken when they were 3 1/2 months old and a photo taken just last weekend. – Myrna S. Hemet, CA

Dear Myrna, We thank you so much for updating us on Sadie and Sophie. They look adorable and and so very content. What a great picture! It warms our hearts to hear they are happy and a joy to you. We are grateful they have found such a wonderful home with you.

Oh Kelley! How we love baby Lila Pearl. She has adjusted like you would not believe. She plays with her toys and carries them around in her mouth so proud. She eats like a champ. Sleeps on my head. She purrs as soon as you touch her or pick her up. Every one loves her and she seems to love every one. She is not afraid of the vaccumn and noises (well a couple of times she’s jumped). We have so much fun watching her play and run around. She follows me around and watches my every move. I don’t know how we lived without her. I have taken some really cute pics of her and when my boys come over I will ask them to help me send them to you (I am computer illiterate). Her first visit to the Vet is next Tuesday, wanted you to know. Thank you for raising our wonderful new friend. Will stay in touch. You stay happy and healthy, Love, Barbara P. San Diego, CA

Dear Barbara, We are so happy baby Lila Pearl has such a loving home. Thank you for sharing with us how she is doing. We really appreciate knowing our little blessings are happy in their forever homes. We can’t wait to see the pictures.

Hi Kelley- I hope this finds you well…Our precious kitty, Diesel turns one yr. old today and I thought you might enjoy seeing how he’s all grown up (sort of). He’s still a bit of a mischief maker but he sure has been an answered prayer and blessing! We’ve enjoyed watching him develop over the past months and look forward to spending many years with him. We brought him home to Dana Point last August when he was between 4-5 mo. old. Often I visit your website to look at the pictures of his mommy, Blue Moon and daddy, Red Hot Chili Pepper. He really seems to be a combo of both his parents as far as looks go. I wonder about his parents “nature/personalities” as well. Take care & thanks for the sweet member of our family! Teri S.

Dear Teri, Thanks so much for the update on Diesel. He is growing up to be a very handsome boy. We can’t tell you how happy it makes us to know that Diesel is with a family that cares for him so much. They are truly blessings and make such a difference in our lives. Thank you again!

Hi Kelley, Wanted to let you know that our kitten Sofia is doing great and we love her to death! She has adapted well to our family and is quite the little companion. She follows me around the house and likes to sit on my lap and purr when I watch TV. It must be hard to let your kittens go as they are such a delight. If it was me I’d keep them all! Today is our 40th wedding anniversary and I’m glad we have Sofia to share it with. Hope you enjoy the pictures. They are way beyond cute! Sincerely, Karen S. Monterey, CA

Dear Karen, The pictures of Sofia are adorable! It warms our hearts to hear how happy she is and that she has become a great addition to your family. Congratulations on your 40th anniversary. We wish you many more years of happiness. We’d like to keep them all too, but then we wouldn’t be sharing just how much joy they can bring to you. Thank you so much for letting us know how precious she is to you.

Evening Kelley, Stirling’s fur has gotten so thick and silky these last few months. Also his tail has increased in volume and looks so sexy. Harlow is an absolute beauty and gets prettier every day. They had such great mothers too! They cover their “potty”, dainty little eaters, bath themselves all the time and are purr monsters! They follow me around the house and sleep with us every night. They have filled our house with beauty, love and companionship. Thanks again for being such a responsible breeder and an overall caring person. Hugs, Estelle, Al, Harlow and Stirling

Dear Estelle, Thank you so much for sharing how well Stirling and Harlow are doing. They sound so content and happy. We are blessed that we can share in the happiness they have provided to you and your family. Stirling is quite the handsome one and Harlow is absolutely gorgeous. We are grateful that they are in such a loving and caring home where they can enjoy their lives.

Good morning Kelley,

I wanted to share these pictures of Oatmeal. She loves to watch me work on the computer. Next picture she is relaxing on her pillow. She loves to look out the window and watch the birds. She waits by my grandaughter’s door every morning for her to let her in. She will stay there for a couple of hours every morning. She is relaxing being cool with her biker hat. She wakes me up every morning at 4 to 5 am for me to hug, pet, brush and feed her. She follows me around the house and will sit next to me. If I am downstairs and going to go back upstairs; she will run ahead of me, stop, turn around, and make sure I’m following her. She is such a good kitty.

Your friend, Debbie K.

Dear Debbie, We are thrilled that Oatmeal has become such an affectionate, sweet and of course “cool” kitty. It truly make us so happy to know that Oatmeal is doing so wonderful and obviously loves you and your family so very much. Thank you so much for sharing your experiences and adorable pictures with us.

Dearest Kelley, Abner has now turned 1 year old and I wanted to tell you how amazing life has been this past year. Full of so much change and redirection. He truly is the sweetest and most affectionate cat I’ve ever had. He loves following me everywhere I go and plopping down on my yoga mat. He travels with me whether it’s to work, visiting friends, flying across country, or just going for a drive. He’s “preciously portable” as my friends have quoted. There is no one who hasn’t fallen in love with him. Most of all… ME! You are such an amazing woman and I know it translates into your beautiful cattery and the kittens you raise. I’m truly blessed to have crossed your path last year. I have recommended you to all those who have fallen in love with Big Ab! I’m glad we were able to visit with you a year later. We will always stay in touch as it so much fun sharing pics and his growing fur with you. Thank you again for all the blessings you have given me during a difficult time with the loss of my dear Pompi. You will never know how much you helped me. 5 stars to Windy Valley Persians. I would never look anywhere else. Not only did I get a new kitten I got a friend in you. Love & Blessings always. Lara & Abner

Dear Lara, We are so happy that Abner is in such a loving home with you. He is quite handsome and you two look great together. “Preciously portable” is a perfect word for him. We can’t thank you enough for sharing how he has become such a great part of your life. Happy Birthday Big Ab! Thank you for your kind words.

Hello Kelley, I thought you might be happy to know that I had a call yesterday evening from my vet. She wanted your cattery info, as she had several people ask her about where to get a Persian kitten and she wanted to send them to you, since Percy made a great impression. I gave her your website address, and she said she would pass it on to the clients who’d asked her about Persians. I figured you would appreciate knowing Percy is a good ambassador for Windy Valley Persians. So if you get a few people calling or emailing from Yorba Linda, that’s probably why 🙂 Percy is well. He, like Gypsy, believes the ceiling fan was installed for the comfort of the cat. He got comfortable enough with his “safe space” that he has been allowed to explore most of the downstairs area and quickly found all the spots where he can lie so the fan helps cool him off. He even protested yesterday when he was brought downstairs and the fan was off. I thought you might appreciate the good word from my vet. Carol

Hello Kelley, Wanted to thank you again for Percy and for all the hard work making sure he’s so well socialized and used to being groomed. He’s been a joy at home, and quickly let us know that a room with no person in it was NOT an acceptable temporary home, so his new safe room is the spare bedroom my daughter uses over the summer. They both seem to enjoy this arrangement quite a bit, and my daughter is used to young animals, having had her puppy in with her a few years ago at her Dad’s house. Percy is still closed off from Gypsy, although thanks to him thinking freedom was just behind the door, they did get one face to face meeting already this afternoon. Gypsy seems open to negotiations, as her response was simply to stomp off to her cat tree and glower at him. I’m betting she will come around pretty quickly (and I sure hope she does, her dropping a cat toy in my mouth last night was exactly why I got her some same-species companionship.) Percy quickly discovered both microfiber blankets and plush animals, as he’s made himself at home on my daughter’s bed. He certainly seems to enjoy the kibble a bit more than the meat, although he’s eaten a bit of that. I know you have quite a few pictures, but thought you might like one of his first day here. Thank you again, Carol

Dear Carol, Thank you so much for sharing your news about Percy. He sounds like he’s adjusting very well. Mr. Ambassador Percy is a very handsome boy and he is blessed to be in your family. We also appreciate you letting us know that your vet is interested in Windy Valley. It is a great compliment.

Hello Kelley, How are you? Our little fur-babies are just over two years old now, Ponder the black and white male and Wonder the brown patched tabby and white female. They’re our favorite part of our world and the best morning alarm clock we’ve ever had! Haha 🙂 Since we work at home they follow us around the condo all day it’s just amazing how close we are. They’re the favorites at the grooming shop we go to because they’re apparently so nice and easy to work with. Ponder is outgoing and adventurous and isn’t afraid to try to eat my lunch as his favorite thing is food. Thankfully regular vet visits help us keep an eye on his weight! He’d eat a whole garden of vegetables if I had one! Wonder is the little princess, she’s quiet, reserved, very polite and especially loves to snuggle before bed at night. Thank you for these loving cats! Lesley

Dear Lesley, It’s absolutely wonderful that Ponder and Wonder are such a happy part of your lives. We can’t tell you how happy that makes us to know they are in a lovely family and enjoying themselves. It truly warms our hearts to be updated on how they are doing. Thank you so much for sharing with us.

Hi Kelley, I thought I’d just let you know how wonderfully Casper has adjusted to our family. He’s an angel! Loves to cuddle with everyone including our girls. Thank you for the fantastic kitty 🙂 We will definitely be coming back when we are ready for another one in coming years! Sincerely, Eva E.

Dear Eva, We are so happy that Casper is in such a loving home with you. He is adorable and looks perfectly content. Such a sweet picture showing true love. We can’t thank you enough for sharing that he is an angel and a great part of your lives. Thank you for your kind words.

Kelley, Hope that you and your family had a nice Thanksgiving! Wanted you to know that Reddington has fit in quite well with Jackson and Ellery at our home. Thanks for making him available for us and we love him so much! Thanks and Happy Holidays to you and your family. Nina and Pete

Dear Nina and Pete, We are so happy to hear Reddington is doing well and has fit in so well with the other members of your family. It warms our heart to know he is bringing happiness to you and that he is so loved. Thank you very much for letting us know.

Hi Kelley, Just wanted you to know…Seamus and Siegfried are still going strong. I’m taking care of my Mom in her last days. My children are 11, 13, and 15. How are you and your family? Seamus is like a watchdog…Siegfried is very healing. He keeps vigil outside my Mom’s room. Just wanted you to know, the work you do is awesome. Thank you. Frances J.

Siegfried (left) and Seamus (right)

Dear Frances, We are so glad that Seamus and Siegfried can help during this very difficult time for you and your family. It sounds like they have personality traits that were meant to be. It is nice to see they are very loved and incredibly handsome indeed.

Hi Kelley. Today is our Rudy’s first birthday. We can’t thank you enough for letting us have this wonderful boy! Not a day goes by without his making Jim and me laugh. He’s had a healthy, happy year. As you can see, we keep him in a “puppy cut”. Unlike his predecessor, he actually likes the buzzer and we haven’t had to deal with any mats. He’s playful and sweet natured to everyone–including his beagle cousin who is visiting right now. We think he’s a perfect kitty. Thanks again. S.

Dear Susan, He is just adorable and looks so happy. The puppy cut suits him. Happy Birthday Rudy! It’s wonderful to know how great Rudy is doing there in San Clemente, CA. As always, it warms our hearts to know that you and Jim are enjoying him. Thank you so much for sharing!

Hi Kelley, we love our kitty Lucious. He has been such a blessing to us. Thank you. I’m attaching some photos for you. – Ashley

Dear Ashley, Thank you very much for sharing how special Lucious is to you and your family. We have said it before, it truly warms our heart to know how he is doing. Lucious is incredibly handsome and is obviously well loved!

Hi Kelley, Happy Friday, hope you’re doing well! Just wanted to give you a quick update on Francis. He is truly just what I needed and has done so much to heal my heart. He is so sweet and gentle, and unbelievably social. The most surprising thing is how much he loves the baby—he is always with her. I feel so lucky to have him, he’s such a great part of the family already. Thank you again for making it possible, I am so grateful to you. -Erin

Dear Erin, We truly appreciate you taking the time to let us know how Francis is doing. We are very happy to hear how he has made a difference in your life. Seeing him with the baby is absolutley heart warming and we are thrilled to hear that he loves her and can see she is adorable as well.

Hiya Kelley~ ! 2017 has been such an exciting year. My home has been filled with so much happiness because of two new furballs, Princess Peach and Beignet! Peaches is my sweet, sweet baby girl. She’s a bit clumsy and runs like a kitten lol. Watching her attack feathers and little mice is the CUTEST thing. She’s quiet, soft-spoken, and a perfect little angel. Her powdery blue fur is as soft as her personality. People who pet her for the first time always comment that she feels so soft! Beignet, my little bear, is on my lap as I type this.

He is a studly 16v purring machine. Along with a robust purr, he also has quite a commanding voice. This boy knows what he wants and all he wants is love. His favorite bed is my keyboard or head. Peaches and Beignet have the best temperaments out of all the cats I’ve owned. They make such good pets and are so adorable. These kitties just complete me. They warm my heart and feet daily! Thank you for your amazing work and dedication to the breed. Happy new year in advance to you and your family! <33 Love, Konny

Dear Konny, Thank you so much for letting us know how well Princess Peach and Beignet are doing. She is quite beautiful and he is very handsome in their holiday outfits! It is heartwarming for us to hear they are filling your home with happiness. Thank you for sharing with us.
