Hi, welcome to my website.
My name is Jan Hurcombe and I was a small hobby breeder of British Shorthair Asian & Burmilla cats. I live on the south coast, in Southampton, Hampshire.
I am now having a break from breeding as all our breeding queens have retired after 2 litters each from Alfie (Alfrieda) and Rose and 3 litters from Phoebe. They are still living with us and enjoying their retirement. Thank you to all the lovely people who have given their kittens wonderful homes. I’m pleased to say lots of them stay in touch and send pictures of the kittens, which is great. Pictures are on “Our Kittens” page
“Bluebumble” is my GCCF registered prefix. The name “Bumble” comes from our very first pedigree cat, a Blue Persian, “Shayfew Blue Bumble” who sadly died in 2005, aged nearly 17.
Our breeding queens were “Advish Phoebi Cassinia” (Phoebe) a Blue British Shorthair, Araboth Tiffany (Alfie) a silver black-ticked tabby Asian and Araboth Recoupe Rose (Rose) a silver brown-shaded Burmilla.
As well as our 3 breeding queens, we also have 2 lovely pet neuters: “ Advish Varinia” (Molly) a gorgeous Black British Shorthair, and “Bluebumble Silver Lining” (Chester) who is one of Alfies’ sons’. Please see our Gallery for pictures of all our cats and kittens.
Life is never boring with these delightful breeds around, bringing so much pleasure to our lives.
All our cats are “indoor” cats, although when we are home, they are allowed to play in our secure garden, which they love.
I am a member of The Southern British Shorthair Club, Southern Counties Cat Club, The Three Counties Cat Society and The Wessex Cat Club and The International Asian Group Breed Club.
