Seychellois

Einführung
Die Idee für diese Züchtung lieferte ein Bericht über Katzen auf den Seychellen.
Die Engländerin Pat Turner aus Milton Keynes in Buckinghamshire wollte jenes Fellmuster der Seychellen-Katzen wiedererschaffen. Es bestand aus einer weißen Grundfarbe mit kleine farbigen Flecken und einem durchgehend farbigen Schwanz. Zusammen mit Julie Smith, einer anderen britischen Züchterin, begann sie 1984 mit dem Zuchtprogramm. Zunächst paarte sie zwei Siamkatzen mit zwei weiblichen Persern in Schildpatt mit Weiß. Die Nachkommen wiederum wurden mit Siam und Orientalisch Kurzhaar gekreuzt. Mit jeder Generation wurde das Muster verbessert. Die ersten richtigen Seychellois erhielten die Namen Victoria, Félicité, Amirante und Thérèse. Victoria und Félicité wurden erstmals 1988 auf einer Katzenausstellung gezeigt. Die Zukunft der Rasse wurde durch die Gründung einer Seychellois Cat Society im Jahr 1989 gesichert.

Erscheinungsbild
Die Seychellois hat einen keilförmigen Kopf mit großen Ohren. Der Körper ist schlank und elegant, die Augen blau. Das Fell ist weiß mit farbigen Flecken. Es gibt sowohl Katzen mit langem, als auch welche mit kurzem Fell. Es gibt drei Arten der Musterung: Seychellois Septième: Weiß mit farbigen Schwanz und großen farbigen Flecken an Kopf, Beinen und Körper. Seychellois Huitième: Weiß mit farbigem Schwanz und kleinen farbigen Flecken an Beinen und Kopf. Seychellois Neuvième: Fast ganz weiß mit farbigem Schwanz und kleine farbigen Flecken nur am Kopf.

Temperament
Die Seychellois gilt als zerstreut, athletisch, gefühlvoll und anspruchsvoll.

SEYCHELLES ISLANDS

COUNTRY OVERVIEW

  • The Seychelles Archipelago occupies 400,000 sq km (150,000 sq miles) of the Indian Ocean northeast of Madagascar and contains 115 islands and islets. These fall into two groups of markedly different appearance, stemming from their distinct geologies: Granitic: A dense cluster of 42 islands, unique in being the only mid-ocean group in the world with a granite rock formation. Their lush green vegetation is tropical in character. Indigenous forest exists on the higher slopes. Coralline: Isolated coral outcrops speckling a vast area of the Indian Ocean to the southwest of the granitic group. They rise only a few feet above sea level but are covered with rich and dense vegetation. Aldabra, the largest atoll in the world, contains one third of al Seychellois land and is a UNESCO-designated World Heritage site. Mahé: Surrounded by coral reefs, this is the largest of the islands, and houses the international airport, the port and capital, Victoria. Praslin: The second largest island is two to three hours by boat or 15 minutes by air from Mahé. It is famous for the Vallée de Mai, also a UNESCO World Heritage site which contains the double-nutted coco-de-mer palm. Local specialities include kat-kat banane, coconut curries and la daube (made from breadfruit, yams, cassavas and bananas).

Background: A lengthy struggle between France and Great Britain for the islands ended in 1814, when they were ceded to the latter. Independence came in 1976. Socialist rule was brought to a close with a new constitution and free elections in 1993. The most recent presidential elections were held 31 August-2 September 2001. President RENE, who has served since 1977, was re-elected. On 14 April 2004 RENE stepped down and Vice President James MICHEL was sworn in as president.
