Historic Document - Pixiebob acceptance into ACFA

The entrance into ACFA in 2005.
Carol and this group below went directly into showing the cats in ACFA. From left to right are Mary Gilbert (NativeDream), Terril McGee (blue shirt husband of RockyTop Cattery, holding his cat) sitting is Shari Fedewa, standing is Paul, then Carol Brewer beside him, the red head is Maranda Hull, the lady holding a cat is Linda Lowman (she divorced her husband) she's Bobcat Legends.  I think Paul might have been her husband actually.  Then sitting is Christine Humphreys on the far right (TwilightHunter Cattery). 

The only woman that is unknown here is the standing woman behind Christine with the light blue shirt, so can anyone please help with identifying this lady?

Here's Jessica McGee (below) of RockyTop cattery, the wife of Terril, showing/introducing her male "RockyTop's Tennessee Corky" to the ACFA judges in a sort of meet th breeds presentation.

Pictures of RWGRCH CatyCorners Bosewell of DixiePixie, SpringCreek, and StoneIsland.  Carol kept him for her program after the death of Susan Jordan. His son "DixiePixie Boswells Ben Catright" was part of Shari Fedewa program at the time.

Thanks Richard Koons for the insight if this cats travels around various programs.  Plus the show hall photos.









Historic Reference Photo - Arizona Bobby of Stoneisland

Here's none other than Arizona bobby, and a rare picture of Carol brewer showing him in TICA to get judges to sign off on his 01T status. But here's all 7 pictures of 01T Arizona Bobby. 

I'm not sure if his line ended up anywhere in the breed, you'll have research to see if he did.

Thanks Richard Koons for this insight and photos.

Who’s Who - VivaLaFeline - Lynn Holland

Based stateside, bred Pixiebobs from 1998 until 2003 and then continued in the Bobtails until 2007.  We have no additional information on this cattery or Breeder.  Can you help fill in the blanks?

Thanks to Richard Koons for bringing this forgotten cattery to our attention.

Who’s Who - AlamoPixiebobs - Sonny & Debbie

Alamo Legends Cattery (Sonny and his wife was Debbie) was a new one on the scene in the late 2000s and they hit the show hall very hard. I think they started under RedRiverBobis but switched breeding stock to StoneIsland, Legendtales and many others (under the FTLOP affiliates) and started showing, and the gentleman in the picture below died, which lead to the program ending. 

The only breeder that got one of their cats was Bj Strickland of SnowCapPixies, she got a male from their breeding. So any lines remaining would have to resided with her.  She may also remember this couples last name, and may have more details on the lines. They were a very promising cattery though at the time, but with a quick end due to this passing.

Thanks Richard Koons for this insight into this cattery.

Historic Reference Photo - Legendary Tequila Sunrise

Legendary Tequila Sunrise, the first picture was her younger days when she was a 6 month old at MojosCathouse. The second picture was taken of her when she was older and I think at ThreeRiverPixies cattery. She ended up at WhistlinPixies and PurrringDesert. Not sure if there is any history of usage beyond these catteries.
