Welcome to Xarifa. My name is Annela, but everyone knows me as
Anne. I hope you enjoy wandering through my little portion of the
Web. If you would like to know anything more about my cats or even
if you have some
questions about Siamese and Orientals in general, please feel
welcome to email me and I will do my best to answer your
questions. If you just want to share stories and photos of your
fur family then I will be honoured to share them with you.
Xarifa is
situated in the Fleurieu Peninsula which is in South Australia.
We live near a small but busy
country town which is about a 60 minute drive away from
Adelaide.
My love of
Siamese cats started over 23 years ago when I purchased a
lovely blue tabby point girl. |
Back in those days we allowed her outside
and learnt a very hard lesson when Shas was hit and killed by a car.
We were then privileged to be owned by Eldamar Tabby Kena
who was a beautiful
typey cat who lived up to her name, (Kena is Estonian for
pretty). I started a
breeding program from Kena and registered my cattery prefix Xarifa back in 1986.

Some people say that Siamese
and Oriental cats are not very affectionate....
but I personally have found that they are one of the most affectionate
animals and
extremely loyal. When I am home Tyson & Manny rarely leave
my side and Tyson is most often found sitting almost on my keyboard as
I work (where he is right this moment) and Manny at my feet.
Please bookmark my site as it will be continually upgraded, I would love
you to visit again.
Oh and please don't forget to
sign my guest map below and say hello, I would love to meet you.

Sooty and
Manny |

We are one, but we are many,
and from all the lands on earth we come,
We share a dream, and sing with one voice,
