Our Stud
King Permes Simon I
Permes Simon I
Cinnamon Point Siamese Stud | TICA Registered
Permes Simon is our striking cinnamon point Siamese stud, admired for his brilliant blue eyes, silky coat, and unmistakably regal presence. A proven sire, Simon traveled from Washington State to his forever home in Michigan, where he now serves as the cornerstone of our cinnamon preservation program.
We are deeply honored that his breeder and friend, Louis, entrusted us with Simon. His arrival brought the highly respected Permes cinnamon bloodlines to the Midwest, and we are proud to continue preserving these treasured genetics for future generations. Simon carries both the long hair and short hair genes, allowing him to sire both Siamese and Balinese kittens when paired appropriately while preserving the beautiful cinnamon, fawn, chocolate, and lilac colors we value.
Simon is every bit the king of the cattery. Independent, confident, and undeniably handsome, he carries himself with quiet dignity and seems to know exactly how special he is. While Simon is much more interested in impressing his ladies than seeking attention from people, his calm confidence and exceptional presence make him impossible not to admire.
We are incredibly grateful that Permes Simon I is part of the Willow Gate family and look forward to the legacy he will leave for generations to come.

Abilene
Retired Seal Point Siamese Queen | TICA Registered
Abilene is one of the most unforgettable personalities to ever grace Willow Gate Cattery. Our smallest queen, she is a striking seal point Siamese with brilliant blue eyes and an exceptionally dark winter coat that can make her nearly disappear into the night.
Though she weighs just under five pounds, Abilene's personality is anything but petite. Curious, fearless, and endlessly entertaining, she is always ready for an adventure. She loves "talking" with anyone who will listen, curling up in the bathroom sink, chasing our Border Collies, and supervising everything happening around the house. If a door opens, Abilene is convinced it leads to her next great expedition.
Abilene has a special fondness for kittens, whether they're her own or someone else's, and she has always been a favorite thanks to her affectionate, outgoing nature and endless curiosity.
After welcoming her last litter in 2025, Abilene retired from our breeding program. We were thrilled that she was able to join her daughter, Leah, where the two now enjoy their retirement together. Knowing they are together and deeply loved is the perfect next chapter for this remarkable little queen.

Oskar
Chocolate Point Siamese Stud | Forever in Our Hearts | TICA Registered
Oskar was our extraordinary chocolate point Siamese stud and remains one of the most cherished cats in the history of Willow Gate Cattery. Admired for his striking dark azure blue eyes, luxurious silky coat, and exceptional temperament, Oskar embodied the elegance, intelligence, and beauty that define the Siamese breed.
Oskar carried chocolate, cinnamon, and dilute genetics, producing kittens with beautiful traditional colors and the outstanding health, temperament, and breed type we strive to preserve. His carefully selected pedigree combined exceptional American and international bloodlines, including numerous champions and international champions, creating a legacy that continues through his daughters, Hazel and Kisses.
While Oskar was breathtaking to look at, it was his personality that truly captured our hearts. Every evening he greeted us with an enthusiastic "conversation," as though he couldn't wait to tell us about his day. He loved riding in the car, happily explored the world on a harness, and never missed an opportunity to be part of whatever we were doing. His kittens consistently inherited his affectionate, social, talkative personality and the wonderfully soft, silky coat that made him so special.
Although Oskar is no longer with us, his influence lives on every day at Willow Gate Cattery. Through Hazel, Kisses, and the generations still to come, his legacy of beauty, intelligence, and loving companionship will always remain at the heart of our program.

Ash
Seal Point Siamese | The Cat Who Started It All
Ash was the very first stud of Willow Gate Cattery and, without question, the cat who started it all. A beautiful seal point Siamese with the sweetest, chubbiest cheeks, Ash embodied everything we love about the traditional Applehead Siamese. It was through him that our family fell completely in love with the breed, setting us on the path that would eventually become Willow Gate Cattery.
We were fortunate to welcome Ash into our family when he was just a year and a half old. From that day forward, he never met a stranger. Ash adored people and believed he belonged in the middle of everything. Whether it was a family gathering, a quiet evening at home, or a visit to the veterinarian, he wanted to be wherever the people were. His affectionate, outgoing personality reminded us more of the friendliest dog than a typical cat. At the veterinary office, the staff would often carry him from room to room so everyone could meet the cat with the unforgettable personality.
Ash was a true cowboy cat. He loved riding horseback with June, especially on her beloved Arabian mare, Maggie, as though he had been born for life in the saddle. Fearless, curious, and endlessly trusting, he embraced every adventure with enthusiasm and brought joy to everyone fortunate enough to know him.
After retiring from our breeding program, Ash enjoyed four wonderful years simply being a cherished member of our family. He was, and always will be, the cat that changed our lives. Willow Gate Cattery exists because of him, and although he is greatly missed, his spirit continues to inspire everything we do.
