I am Frances Yow, TICA Allbreed judge for 20 years and Havana breeder for 22 years. I have had an ongoing love affair with this wonderful breed of cat since 1976 when I purchased my first Havana girl from Carrington Cattery.

   After showing Terci in ACFA to the highest level, I took her to Pat Swihart, owner of Charm's Cattery for breeding in 1978 and that was the beginning of the breeding program for Yofranlin Cattery and it continues today.

   My babies are raised underfoot, in my face and in my bed. Hours are spent socializing the kittens. Temperment is most important. I want loving, affectionate kittens and cats. Show careers are nice but what is more important to me is that my babies go to loving homes where they will be a family member for many, many years.

   Please visit the site often, call or email. If I'm off at a show, I'll get back to you as soon as possible. If you are interested in kittens and I don't have any, I'll refer you to another breeder but only one who in my opinion is honorable and with the highest integrity who is working to keep the breed clean and free of any undersirable outcrosses.

   Be sure to visit the Articles page to stay current on issues regarding this unique and wonderful breed.

   I will look forward to your visits.
