I have had so many nice e-mails about my kittens over the years, but I never planned on doing this page, so I only have a few older e-mails that I could find. Some e-mails below are old e-mails and some are new e-mails I have received.
To everyone that has kept in touch with me
 "Thank You".  If your e-mail is not here
"I am sorry" I did not save it.

I will be adding more testimonials soon- sorry everyone I am back on keeping up with this page!

Sally now has 4 beautiful kittens from me


I was searching the web one day about a year ago and I goggled Persian Cats.  I was fortunate to find www.batcho.net Her website was gorgeous.  I called the owner, Kerrie, and found out she had some boy kittens that my husband and I could adopt in about 12 weeks.  Little did I know at the time, what a blessed day that would be. We went to Pittsburgh and picked up our boys at Thanksgiving time.  We couldn’t wait to hold Thumper and Thunder.  What a special moment that was for us.  These two little balls of fur just melted into our arms and didn’t have a scared bone in their bodies.  We brought them back to our home in Florida where we have other Persian cats.  There was no trouble bringing them all together.  Eight months later:  These two cats made such an impression on us that my husband said, “if the same mother and father have boy kittens again, we might want some more.” I called Kerrie that same day and she said, “the same mother and father just had two boys.”  I couldn’t believe my ears.  We immediately reserved the two new kittens.  Two weeks ago I went back to Pittsburgh and picked up “Tiki and Titus.”   I have owned many Persian cats but I have never owned ones that are so loving, sweet, gorgeous, not afraid, and a joy to love.  From beginning to end of each experience, it has been a pleasure working with Kerrie.  She keeps in touch, answers all my questions, and is more than willing to help in any way she can. 

I pray I have many years ahead of me and I will have the pleasure of buying more kittens from her.  One thing for sure, there is a lot of love in our home in St. Augustine, Florida. 

Sincerely,Sally

Kerrie:
 I just wanted to let you know that the calico kitten my family adopted from you a month go is doing great!  My children think she is absolutely wonderful and love playing and sitting with her.  She is very well mannered and we could not have asked for better.  We had her into the vet and the whole staff commented on just how beautiful she was.  Thank you for making our dream of owning a Persian a reality.  It was a real pleasure working with you on getting her down here to Nebraska.  We were so pleased with the experience that we have decided that within six months to a year we would like to do it again, but this time we would like to find a suitable mate for our little Mia.  Thanks again for all you did!

Sincerely, The Hruska Family

From  "Georgia"

Hi Kerrie,
Once again, thank you for my beautiful little boy.  He is even more gorgeous than his picture! I am just so amazed at how adaptable he is.  He has not stopped purring since we picked him up at the airport.  Damian and I are fighting over who gets to sleep with him tonight.  Last night he laid right in the crook of my arm and purred and purred.  He didn't budge all night.  We are just madly in love with him.  You do such a wonderful job with your breeding.  I can't begin to sing your praises enough!  We have decided on the following name:  Batchos Sebastian Prince-o-Heart.  We had to shorten it a little from the original version so it would meet the 32 letter maximum.

Kerrie, you have made our Christmas.  What better gift to bring home than the gift of love.
Sebastian is just a little bundle of love, and we feel blessed to have him.  Thank you so much.

Kerrie, Thanks so much for everything and all of your instructions.  I gave my mom the kitten today and she absolutely loved him and she cried.  He has a wonderful personality and is as cute as the pictures showed.  If anything comes up I'll be sure to ask but he is in wonderful hands!  Thanks again for all of your help and the great instructions, my mom had a Persian cat for 17 years and I think this helped her move on,  I'm sure he will be spoiled rotten... and if I think of anything or if anything comes up my mom does not know how to handle, I'll be sure to e-mail you.  Thanks again, I'll be sure to send you a picture from time to time.  Andrew

Hi Kerrie,
Just to let you know how everything is going with the baby (Pelusa).  Her nickname, she hasn't been formally named yet.  We want to thank you and your husband for meeting us half way.  This made it a lot shorter trip for us.  The kitten looked a little frantic for you when you left, but she got to know us real fast.  We stopped outside Williamsport at the viewing spot and gave her food and water.  We bought a small basket for her to lay in on my lap so I didn't have to hold her the entire trip.  She seemed to like that.  We thought it would take some time for her to adjust to the house.  It did, about three minutes!  She zoomed up and down the stairs, up on the top of the couches, and took over completely the king size bed.  At her time to go to bed, I put her in her own bed, but she cried so pathetically I had to put her back in the middle of the bed, where she went right to sleep (purrrrrrring so loud).  She is eating and drinking lots and using the kitten litter.  We will let you know more later about the "Adventures of Pelusa". Remember to pass on the name of the shampoo and anything you think might help.

Thanks, Maxima

From "New Jersey"
Hi Kerrie!!!!!!    I finally just had a moment to sit down and write... gosh!  we LOVE him!  He is adjusting well - with just a few hours with us he is playing, eating, pooping, climbing and jumping- tearing around the
apartment! He is so smart! Bosco loves him and Bonnie is still going to need a week to adjust - but that's just the way it is. She has been my baby for
about 8 years now. We can not believe how friendly, loving and SMART Orion is... you did a wonderful job with him!  He kept us up last night with purring - wiggled he way up to the top of the bed to be near our heads :)  Seriously, I owe his personality all to your style of raising kittens... he is amazing!

Kim now has 4 beautiful kittens from me.
Hi Kerrie,
Just a quick note to let you know that all is well.  Hannah is absolutely adorable. She talks all the time, and loves to have her toes rubbed. Your cats are beautiful in every way - Looks, personality. If you get more than one message from me that is not complete, Hannah keeps stepping on my laptop and I don't know if she is sending the message or not. I love her Kerrie - thanks for letting me have her... She loves Peter and Kahli and Candy (the German cat). She LOVES the cat condo - she never wants to get off of it. I am so glad you left her on your web site - she is the most beautiful girl~ You do a wonderful job with your cats - they are all beautiful with wonderful personalities that show the love you put in to them.
Talk to you soon.
Kim, Hannah, Peter, and Kahli

Hi Kerrie
I just wanted to give you a head up on Bossily HE IS GREAT!!! I could not LOVE him more.  He's so spoiled and into everything it is like having a toddler in the house, so he stays in the condo when we are at work. So he does not get himself into trouble.  I didn't see how you could let him go, but I am very thankful and will make sure he is never without love, hugs and kisses.  He has truly been an answered prayer.  I would like to know how you cared for his coat so that we can continue and what did you put on him to make him smell so good.  Also I took him to the vet which he loved him.  And again thank you so much for a Beautiful Sweet Heart

Pieper
"Another note" just wanted to thank you so very much for such a great kitten. Bossily has warmed our hearts and our home. Not only is he Beautiful but has a great loving personality we are having so much fun spoiling him rotten he sleeps with me and wakes me every morning with kisses. I don't know who is spoiling who. Our vet gave you a great complement also he said in all of the years he was in the vet business he had never seen such a beautiful Persian. Kerrie thanks again to you and your family for our beautiful new baby Take care and God bless From : Pieper and Bossily

From "California"
Good morning Kerrie,
 
I just thought I would drop a short note to let you know that the kitten that we have named Maui arrived in perfect condition on Saturday afternoon.  She is ADORABLE.  The pictures you sent were wonderful but couldn't compare to the real thing especially when combined with her personality.  She is more than I could have hoped for. 
 As I said in the past, I would like to purchase a male that would be a match for her to breed.  Please keep her in mind and when that special male comes along, please send me a quick note. 
 Thanks for all of your help.  I am VERY HAPPY!

He is amazing- has settled in as if he has always been here.  I made him his own room so he could acclimate gradually and the dogs and other cats would not have direct access to him, well.........he would have none of that,  he wants to be in the thick of things.  His appetite is great, he has been in his litter pan, I gave him his own little one- but found him in the bigger cats pan this morning too.  He was giving me kisses on the face last night,  so terribly cute.

Hi Kerrie
I just wanted to send a quick update to let you know the "Baby" is doing great.  I'm starting to think that baby is going to be his name.  We've gone through a couple of names, but so far nothing seems right.  I've looked at his photos for so long and thought he looked like a Noah, but didn't want to be calling "no" at him all the time.  He is healthy and seems very happy.  He has so much energy!  We bought him a little bed and put the blanket you sent in it.  He does sleep in it, but spends quite a bit of time in our bed.  Gregg was laughing the other morning.  I was having a tough time waking up and he kept coming into the bedroom to try and wake me.  He said every time he opened the door the baby was in a new position---on my face, curled in my neck, on top of my head.  He's definitely a snuggle baby.  He is eating well, using the litter box, getting combed and eyes wiped every day.  He also is getting tons of attention and love. I can't thank you enough for all your help with him.  He's just gorgeous.

Hi Kerrie,
Thank you for my little girl.  I'm sure you have an idea of how much happiness she brings to me each day.   She is so sweet, happy and purrs all the time.  I now go to sleep with her on my chest purring, it's been a long time since I have had one of the cats to be that close, so I am enjoying this immensely.
Emily has fit into the household so easily, she doesn't let the "big" cats boss her around.  She enjoys playing with the two year olds, Molly & Tyler....it's a hoot to watch.
Lastly, thank you for using some of my email to you on your website in the envelope that reminds me of a Valentine card!
I think I mentioned that I would have been married 20 yrs this Valentine's day....what romantics we were!!  So seeing my words made me very happy.   I couldn't have picked a better gift to myself than Emily for this Valentine's day.
I'll keep in touch, I hope and your family have a great weekend too!
hugs & purrs to all, Betty

 

 

From "Pennsylvania" Vicki has 2 beautiful kittens from me.
Good Morning Kerrie,
As Christmas approaches, and a New Year will soon begin, I wanted to let you know how very grateful we are for our Lucy.  Lucy is having a wonderful time playing with the bows and decorations on the Christmas tree.  She has been such a comfort to Kayla with Noelle going to
college.  When I go in to wake Kayla for school in the morning, I can be sure that Lucy will be sleeping beside her or at times wrapped around her head.  Lucy now has a wonderful coat and is so beautiful.  What has surprised me the most is how very much my husband enjoys her. 
He has always liked dogs a bit more than cats, and one day as I was looking at the kittens on your website, he said maybe we should get another kitten so Lucy will have a younger kitten to play with - perhaps a calico.
Thank you so much for the beautiful and loving kittens you give such great care to and thank you for the joy you have brought to our family.
I wish you and your family a blessed Christmas and a happy and blessed
New Year.

Vicki

Hi Kerrie, My little black and white kitten is purrrfect! She is eating just fine.  We have played ball and feather. Every time I go into her room she greets me;-) that I just love! In a day or so I'll let her out of the spare bed room and let her get used to her house.  Now it's really time for a name.... Ceylon.... is a rare type of a Sapphire gem. I like Brave heart.... she kind of looks Indian... like the paint horses. I'll let you know what I come up with.

Thank you so much for my baby.......I love her a bunch already! You know that saying.... I love you more today then yesterday;-)

Hi Kerrie,
I will start from how much we love him already.  What a wonderful kitten he is so playful and he is full of energy!!! We found pee and poop in the morning so he is going to be just fine, he eats and he drinks and he purrs a lot.  My daughter is so happy.  I did not tell you this before but we had a tragedy over Christmas.  Our beloved cat (the blue Persian, had a stroke, he was very old) we dropped him off to the hospital on the day of her birthday by morning he was not with us anymore.  We did not celebrate my daughters birthday this year because of that.  We decided to replace our beloved boy so she would forget.  You don't even know how much it means to us to see a smile on her face.  I will admit we are very crazy parents.  She is taking good care of this kitten.  She was up at 3 am because Milano (the black and white Persian) was crying.  We are so glad that we came across your web.  We also felt that we had to tell you that we visited so many catteries and yours made the best impression on us. Now it was a pleasure of ours to meet you guys in person.  Thank you very very much,

P.S. If you ever come to the Boston area give us a call.

Hi Kerrie, just wanted to let you know my little girl is doing great.  She was a little grumpy driving home, but by the time we settled in she was sleeping on my shoulder.  She's a very sweet kitty.  I can tell she's gonna be a beauty.  Thank you for training her so well.

Hi Kerrie,

Just wanted you to know that we are all completely in love with our gorgeous little girl! When I picked her up at the airport she was in perfect condition and spirits. Once we got home she was well fed and shown to the royal kitty box. From there it was full-force ahead! For the last hour she has been exploring every nook and cranny of our home and playing with Chloe my daughter
(I think they have already bonded). Our other kitty Mimi is a tad aloof for now, but I'm sure this will change once they get used to one another. Truly, I think our angel will be very happy in California. We haven't decided yet what to name her, but Tulip is what I blurted out the first moment I saw her, so maybe it will stick. Regardless, she's in good hands and we are all besotted.

Thank you so much and I will send you photos tomorrow or Friday.
Fondly,
Dana & Family

Hi Kerrie, Zeusy and Meeko are very talkative boys and so loveable.  Zeusy sleeps on my pillow every night, he as well as meeko have become my shadows. I'm not sure if it's because I'm pregnant but they follow me everywhere I go.
I just love my boys they are my world!

Hi Kerrie
I just wanted to let you know that Miss Dazzi is doing great!  She is queen of our household.  Dazzi hangs out with me most of the time in my office-sewing room.  She has about 20 ponytail holders all over that I through out for her to play with.  A while back she was walking on my keyboard and had my computer so messed up it took me a couple of hours to get it straightened out.  She had all the settings messed up.  At night Dazzi lays on my chest with her face right next to mine.  I had surgery in Feb and I have to have another on the 29th of this month.  She can always sense when I need extra loving from her.  She has been such a blessing.  My husband also things the world of her.  I will send you a picture of her when I get a chance.
God Bless

Kerrie,

well, it is now 3 weeks since baby kismet came home.  she is doing just great!!!  her whiskers are definitely growing.  she still sleeps with me every night, and wakes me up purring and "making bread" on my face.  she is into absolutely EVERYTHING, and when I wake up in the morning, it looks like a little furry tornado has gone through the house toys, pens, stuff everywhere...everything is a potential toy.  she plays constantly! there are some kitten toys which she has already lost...they must be in this house somewhere, but who knows where she's put them.  she now knows how to jump up on my desk, so computer time is challenging.  she will sit in front of the screen, and watch the cursor, and chase it with her paw.  she is pretty good at grooming time, but still hates to have her eyes wiped, and of course, I don't have to tell you about bath time. she is doing just great...getting more adorable every single day, and I am falling more in love with her as each day passes (if that is possible).  she is just the little love of my life.  Kerrie, you gave me the most wonderful kitten in the world...I will thank you for the rest of my life.

I hope all is well with you! love, Pam and baby kismet

 

 

From "Arizona"
Hi Kerrie, here are just a couple pictures of our new baby.  She is so sweet, words cannot describe how much we love her!  Our church had a special "pet blessing" this morning, so we took her and had her "blessed".  It meant a lot to our boys, I think it took away some of their fears that something would happen to her.  Oh, I cannot tell you how much she means to us.  Right now my oldest son is in our office with me, telling me we need to stay in here because Chloe is trying to sleep.  It is so cute.  Anyway, just wanted to send you a few pictures, she is so happy, she runs through the house just like she owns it!  Have a great weekend.

Kerrie, Just wanted to write and let you now that Grover is doing great! He is so funny!  He is still wagging his tail and Meowing like crazy!  We love him so much, there isn't a day that goes by that he doesn't give us a good laugh.  He's slowly getting used to his baths but he likes to let us know that he isn't particularly thrilled.  I've attached some pictures of him just to let you see how big he's getting.  Thanks again, and we'll let you know when we're ready for another kitten!

Dear Kerrie,
How are you ?? Fine I hope!! I was on your website last night and saw you had a few babies born what a day for you, I am sure you were very busy.  Well Knight made it here without a hitch.  He is such a purring machine and loves to play!! He is everything you said he was and he is such a handsome boy.  I am in search of some of your kitty food as I am hoping his little tummy doesn't get too upset.  Just would like to say Thank You very much!!! He will be very much LOVED and spoiled with me!!
Cordially, Michelle
p.s. he is HANDSOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

From "Virginia"
Hi Kerrie, Roquefort is doing just fine, he is wonderful. I put him in the litter the first thing and he has been using it ever since! Good boy.  He ran around the front of the house, playing and playing, he was not frightened at all. I don't know where he got the energy after such a busy day. My sister stayed at my house Friday night, we put him her room with a litter box and his food so he could sleep without the others. Bonnie didn't get much sleep however, all he did was purr, lick her face and play. He is eating well, the dry food with water. There are a few spits from three out of the four cats, but they do not want to hit him. My cats are very gentle, I figure in a few more days all will be fine. Roquefort just ignores the hissing, he is not at all afraid of them. Last night he ran up a staircase to one of the guest rooms, we were shocked, never thought he'd be able to handle the stairs. Just now he made it up the second staircase. He just amazes us. I am keeping a watchful eye on him at all times. He is having no problems in his new home. We just love him to death!  Enjoy your day, Lynn
