about us american curl and siamese kittens and cats

We are Rudi and Eurica Teichmann from Moorreesburg 100 km north of Cape Town. Cats have been a part of our lives as far back as we can remember but we started breeding cats the beginning of 1990. We love our cat-children and we hope that the kittens will bring joy and warmth in your lives too.
Our catery is Samoa Gems. Moorreesburg was known as Samoa by the early residents and it fitted in very well with our first Siamese and Oriental cats.
Phone number is 022 433 1550 Moorreesburg Western Province South Africa

No, I did not make a mistake with the seasons.... Moorreesburg falls in the winter rainfall area, resulting in mild green winters and dry hot summers. The snow covered mountains in the background (photo above left) are much further inland, the temperature never drops to freezing point in Moorreesburg.


Our home. To save water and maintenance most of the 3500sq m. garden is planted with succulents. Our hobby is aloes and we cultivate aloe seeds.

Info & feedback
If you are interested in buying a kitten/cat then I have good news for you.
Due to the weak currency of South Africa you will be able to buy quality kittens at a very good price.
I do mean QUALITY; true to type and most of all healthy, friendly kittens.
We are very proud of our cats and we improve our lines with imports from around the world
Our American Curl studs are Grand Champion Enigma import from sarcenet followed by Grand International Champion Kenzo import from El Donna Evita in Belgium
We are now breeding with Champion Curls Fantasy Jorian imported from Josee in Belgium


Both parents of our Siamese stud Yksie was imported and they include Champion and Gr. Ch lines from Britain, Europe,Australia and South Africa.

We stopped breeding Cornish Rex for the moment. The lines are available from other breeders in South Africa
As pensioners we have the time to spend on our small cattery and play with our cat babies
