Rico is a 'One Shot baby' and every inch his father's son. He is a very loving little boy and enjoys cuddling up with us, purring loudly.

He has a very special pedigree, thanks to his Dad One Shot and Granddad Ra, he can boast to having two Imperial titled cats in his ancestry, a first for UK Aby breeding. We are very excited to see how he develops as he gets bigger. His Mum is our pretty blue girl Tabby.

The baby boy has already done very well on the show scene, having gained 2 best of Variety wins as a kitten, including 'Best in Show Kitten' at the ACA, and then his 3 CCs by 11 months old. Rico then went even further by winning his three Grand Challenge Certificates in 3 straight shows!

Thanks to all these show wins, Rico also managed to gather up a massive amount of points in the RACCS 2009 competition. He won the Overall RACCS Cat award, Top Adult, Top Adolescent AND Top Kitten, as well as a few more awards in the Abyssinian section, including Top Usual.

Amazingly Rico managed to achieve all this by the age of just 14 months. We couldn't be more delighted to see him do so well, hopefully he will continue to be a star as he matures into adulthood.

Rico is tested negative for both FIV and FELV and Pk deficiency and PRA tested normal. He may be at VERY LIMITED stud to fully tested and approved queens when he is a bit older.
