and introducing MISS FORESTDOLLS FONN ("Snowdrift" in Old Norse)
from Forestdolls Cattery in WI. She became part of the Vikingtails family in May to be the future mother of kittens which will combine Fyrste's amazing qualities with those of her ancestors, brought from Norway to The Netherlands and England. Check out her 5-generation pedigree. Moving in on established cats wasn't easy, but she refused to take "Scram" for an answer, and her winsome ways won!
