Our Stud & Queens

---

Lila is our exquisite seal-point Siamese Queen, proudly registered with The International Cat Association (TICA). She is a truly elegant girl with a regal presence and a calm, refined temperament that makes her unforgettable.

Her genetic testing panels show that she is negative for 50 known feline genetic predispositions, giving added confidence in her health background. Lila also has the wonderfully silky, low-shedding coat texture that Siamese lovers adore — the kind that truly has to be felt to be appreciated.

As a mother, Lila is exceptional. She is gentle, attentive, and devoted to her kittens, and we typically allow her to have one litter each year. Because her kittens are so special, we maintain a waiting list for them.

Even while raising kittens, Lila’s playful side shines through. She loves chasing ribbons, climbing cat towers, darting through tunnels, and playfully surprising her little ones as they explore. Her kittens may come in a beautiful variety of point colors, including seal point, chocolate point, blue point, and lilac point.

Of all our Siamese, Lila is perhaps the most regal. She carries herself with a quiet, calming grace, yet still enjoys “talking” in the sweet, polite way Siamese are known for — daintily following us around while softly chatting.

When she is not busy raising kittens, Lila loves spending time with her best friend, our lively Snowshoe Queen, WG Bailey.

Here is a slightly more luxurious version too, if you want it to sound a little more high-end for your website:

Lila is our stunning seal-point Siamese Queen, registered with The International Cat Association (TICA) and treasured for her beauty, grace, and exceptional temperament. With her refined expression, silky coat, and unmistakably regal presence, Lila embodies the elegance Siamese enthusiasts admire.

Her genetic health panels confirm that she is negative for 50 known feline genetic predispositions, offering reassurance to both breeders and families seeking a healthy, carefully bred kitten. Her coat is especially beautiful — soft, silky, and low-shedding, with a luxurious texture that must be experienced in person to be fully appreciated.

Lila is also an extraordinary mother. She is patient, nurturing, and deeply attentive to her kittens. We typically allow her one carefully planned litter per year, and because of the high interest in her babies, we maintain a waiting list for her kittens.

Though she is graceful and composed, Lila also has a delightfully playful side. She enjoys chasing ribbons, scaling climbing towers, exploring tunnels, and playfully engaging with her kittens as they grow. Her litters may include several gorgeous point colors, including seal point, chocolate point, blue point, and lilac point.

Among all of our Siamese, Lila is the one we would describe as most regal. She has a peaceful, calming presence, but still charms us with the soft, dainty conversations Siamese are famous for, often following us sweetly while she talks.

In her time away from motherhood, Lila especially enjoys spending time with her best friend, our spirited Snowshoe Queen, WG Bailey.

WG Bailey is our exceptional lynx-point Snowshoe Queen, admired for both her striking appearance and her unique genetic profile. With the Snowshoe breed originating from Siamese lines, Bailey embodies that legacy beautifully — her DNA reflecting an approximately even blend of Snowshoe and Siamese heritage.

Her comprehensive genetic testing confirms that she is negative for 50 known feline genetic predispositions, an especially meaningful distinction within the Snowshoe breed and a testament to our commitment to health-conscious breeding.

Bailey is also remarkably unique in her registration as both a Snowshoe and an American Polydactyl (Hemingway Variant 1). Her charming extra toes give her a distinctive look and endearing personality. When paired with a non-polydactyl male, her litters typically produce a natural variation, with approximately half of her kittens inheriting her polydactyl trait.

Due to the narrowing gene pool within Snowshoes, Bailey is thoughtfully paired with Siamese lines to help strengthen genetic diversity and support long-term breed health. Her kittens may display traditional Snowshoe point patterns or solid coloring, offering both beauty and variety.

Bailey’s personality is as captivating as her appearance. She is expressive, highly social, and delightfully talkative, embodying the communicative charm of her Siamese ancestry. She thrives on interaction and brings a lively, affectionate presence to our cattery.

When she is not raising kittens, Bailey enjoys relaxing and playing with her closest companion, our refined Siamese Queen, Lila — together, they perfectly balance elegance and spirited charm.

WG Hazel Hope is a breathtaking chocolate-point Siamese and a treasured future queen of Willow Gate Cattery, retained in 2025 as part of our carefully planned program. As the daughter of our exceptional Oskar and Lila, she carries forward a lineage defined by beauty, temperament, and thoughtful breeding.

Registered with The International Cat Association (TICA), Hazel has been comprehensively health tested and is clear of 50 known feline genetic predispositions, reflecting the high standards we maintain within our cattery.

Genetically, Hazel is particularly remarkable. She carries all Siamese color variations, including cinnamon and dilute, offering extraordinary potential for future litters. Her coat is luxuriously soft, silky, and low-shedding — a hallmark of the refined Siamese we strive to produce.

In temperament, Hazel is everything we hoped for and more. She embodies the warmth, intelligence, and signature “conversation” of the Siamese, paired with a poised, regal presence that makes her truly stand out.

We are incredibly proud of Hazel and all that she represents. We eagerly anticipate her first carefully planned litters beginning in 2027, as she continues the legacy of her remarkable parents.

WG Hershey Kisses is a stunning chocolate-point Siamese and a cherished future queen of Willow Gate Cattery. As the daughter of our exceptional Oskar and Lila, she carries forward a carefully developed lineage known for its beauty, temperament, and thoughtful breeding.

Registered with The International Cat Association (TICA), Kisses has been comprehensively health tested and is clear of 50 known feline genetic predispositions, reflecting the high standards we uphold within our program.

She inherits not only her sire’s remarkable genetic influence — including valuable Siamese color traits — but also the signature silky, low-shedding coat that defines the refined Siamese we strive to produce.

Kisses’ temperament is equally special. She embodies the affectionate, expressive, and talkative personality that made Oskar so beloved, while also displaying a gentle, endearing sweetness that is uniquely her own. She thrives on connection and brings a warm, engaging energy to our home.

In addition, Kisses carries the longhair gene, which gives her the ability to produce both traditional Siamese (short coat) and Balinese (long, flowing coat) kittens, depending on the pairing. While Siamese kittens have the classic sleek, short coat, Balinese kittens are known for their silky, plume-like tails and soft, medium-length coats, while maintaining the same elegant structure and affectionate, talkative personality of the Siamese.

We are honored to carry forward Oskar’s legacy through Kisses and look forward to the beautiful contributions she will make to future generations at Willow Gate Cattery.

Abilene (Retired Queen) is one of the most unforgettable personalities to ever grace Willow Gate Cattery.

Our youngest queen during her time in the program, Abilene is a striking seal-point Siamese, known for her exceptionally dark winter coat — so deep in tone that she can nearly disappear into the night. Her brilliant blue eyes provide a stunning contrast, giving her a truly mesmerizing appearance.

Petite in size, Abilene was bred from lines focused on a more compact, “apartment-sized” Siamese, weighing in at just under five pounds. Despite her small stature, she has a larger-than-life personality that no one could ever overlook.

Abilene is full of curiosity, energy, and charm. She is a dedicated conversationalist, always ready to share her thoughts, and has a unique love of water — often found happily curled up in the sink. She adores kittens of all kinds (not just her own), enjoys chasing after our Border Collies, and must be carefully watched whenever a door opens — as she is always ready for her next great adventure.

If Abilene had her way, she would set off on an epic journey — something straight out of Lord of the Rings. Her fearless, playful spirit and love for exploration make her truly one of a kind.

She is also a favorite among children, who are naturally drawn to her bold, affectionate, and entertaining personality.

Abilene welcomed her first litter in 2025, and we couldn’t have been more pleased. Now retired, she continues to bring joy, laughter, and a sense of adventure to our home every single day.

Oskar was our extraordinary chocolate-point Siamese stud and remains one of the most cherished cats in the history of Willow Gate Cattery.

His pedigree was carefully curated from exceptional American and international bloodlines, featuring numerous champions and international champions. Oskar embodied the refinement, structure, and beauty that define the Siamese breed at its highest standard.

What truly set Oskar apart, however, was his remarkable personality. Despite being an indoor-only cat, he delighted in harness walks and car rides, eagerly joining us for outings. Each evening, he would greet us with expressive conversation, as if recounting the events of his day — a ritual that made him deeply endearing to everyone who knew him.

Oskar’s striking dark azure eyes and rich chocolate-point coloring were complemented by his rare genetic profile, carrying one copy each of dilute, chocolate, and cinnamon — traits that continue to influence our program.

One of the most special aspects of Oskar’s legacy is what he consistently passed on to his kittens. His offspring are known for inheriting his affectionate, highly social, and talkative personality, along with the beautifully soft, silky, low-shedding coat that Siamese lovers often seek.

We are proud to carry forward his legacy through his daughters, Hazel and Kisses, who will continue to reflect his exceptional qualities in future generations.

Oskar’s impact goes far beyond his pedigree. He will always be remembered for the joy, intelligence, and companionship he brought into our home.

Ash was the very first stud of Willow Gate Cattery and the cat who truly started it all for us.

A beautiful seal-point Siamese with the sweetest, chubbiest cheeks, Ash perfectly embodied the charm and classic look of the traditional Applehead Siamese. It was through him that we completely fell in love with the breed — his presence shaped not only our program, but our passion.

Ash had an adventurous spirit unlike any cat we have ever known. He loved car rides, happily walked on a leash, and even joined us for unforgettable moments riding our horse, Maggie. His confidence, curiosity, and trust made him truly one of a kind.

He spent his entire life here with us at Willow Gate Cattery and was later neutered, enjoying his final four years as a beloved companion. Ash was more than just our first stud — he was the foundation of our journey and the reason this cattery exists today.

We have never met another cat quite like him, and his memory continues to inspire everything we do.
