EC FIN*Tähtitassun Balladi Helena
NFO w 64

Well well , once again we learned a lesson, that one should avoid making to many plans! We had absolutely no intensions to have a white cat in the first place, but instead of just having the blumackereltabby-white male Roope, we actually ended up with his sister Helena too. However, we are convinced that we don't have to regret our decision, that's for sure...what can we say, she is simply irresistable!

One might wonder why we decided to have two kittens from the same litter. Well, the explanation is very simple; Roope and Helena come from the the only litter that is left of our belowed male Rudolf and it was extremely important for us to keep his bloodlines in our cattery. This is in our opinion the best way to ensure that we are able to go on with the lines we so much adore.

It's hard to find anything less praiseworthy to say about Helena and tecnically she's, at least in our opinion, almost faultless. She's got excellent body proportions, nice boning, a beautiful profile and a high perfecly forehead. Her ears are quite large, perfectly set and open and she's got a perfect triangle. Her coat quality and lenght is also very good. And best of all, she's got a super sweet look and an adorable temper... and yes, she's got green eyes!

When Helena was born she was so tiny and her weight was only 78 grams. However, she started to gain weight very fast and soon she was not that far behind the two boys in the litter. At the age of 3½ years her weight is about 4,6 kg, with fantastic proportions and a lovely lovely look! We are also very excited to see what kind of kittens she will deliver in the future...

So far Helena has done very well on shows: 3 x BIS, 1 x BOX and several BIV and NOM on top of that and we are sure, that she will do great even in the future.

On september 18th 2007, at the age of 1 year and 5 months, Helena was classified HCM negative by Tapio Palolahti.

We are so grateful to Helena's breeder Eila Tähti for letting us have both Roope and this beautiful girl. It was so interesting to follow their growth as we got pictures and reports from Eila several times a week. Thank you so much!
