Gld Dbl Gr Pr Vladimir Tumbleweed - (Roley)

Colour - Brown mackeral tabby
Roley is just a dude, hes my soulcat. The first few weeks of his life were a struggle. He was flatchested and lived the first 3 weeks in a splint made from a toilet roll hence his name Roley. I didnt know if he would have a long life as he was left with a heart murmur so I kept him. Hes proved us very wrong, he is full of life.
Roley has visited resthomes, hospitals, worked in petshops promoting Royal Canin, been on display in many pet expos and was awarded NZCF 2nd Best N/S cat for 2013 & 2014. Two years in row cant be a fluke :-)
