This photo shoot was well overdue... but here's the latest pictures of Vantage Point (AKA Van the Man). As you can see he is looking a spitting image of his dad (CH Ed Red Esq.) in the face. However, Vans coat pattern is more like his mums, and the length seems to continue to grow too. Its already a tad longer than his dads, and his tail is taking on a fluffiness, and what appears to be the start of a skirt to upper hind legs. So I am wondering if he'll actually become a semi-longhair, as the texture of his coat also fits too. It's a bit of an anomaly as he is lacking longer fur around the face, so who knows... this too may begin to grow in, or Van may become a shaggy short. It's quite exciting to watch though and Van definately carries for longhair. Because of all these things, and because of Broadside's departure (giving us space), I am keeping Van here, under further evaluation for Our Program... but I have a sneaky feeling he'll stay.
I think he has special look about him that remind me so much of Ed overall. He has that weighty feel but no podginess about him, it's a good chunky frame and substance. Even from a very small kitten Vans best trait was his personality, he is a purr machine and so giving... basically a fantastic lovable boy.
So not only does Vans face fit, he also fits surprisingly well into my intended future program, if he stays ;oP. I would love to pair him to any of the females we decide to keep from Quinn this year, and additionally Big Mac x Nebraska litter which due this spring. I think these all hold much promise for the Pixiebob breed and Totallycoastal.
So I'll cut to the chase, and stop talking as I know you're all keen to see the pictures of this boy.
