"We have been blessed with two delightful cats from Tracy. The communication was extraordinary. Stewie and Tesla are both beautiful, well adjusted cats. Tracy is extremely knowledgable and caring. She takes the time to ensure every step of the process is flawless. I HIGHLY recommend Tracy and her cattery to anyone considering bringing one of these incredible cats into their family."

"We have purchased 2 Abby's from Tracy, 1 Ruddy boy and 1 Blue girl. Tracy was awesome with providing information to my many, many questions and support before, during and especially after the purchase of our kittens. After the purchase of our boy he got an infection after neutering while we were away. Our daughter cared for Kozmo with the Vet's care but Tracy was in constant contact with her giving tips and advice on what worked best over her years of experience with her many cats and kittens. Purchasing from Tracy's Cattery is a fabulous experience. The clean, happy, friendy, loving environment is shown to the kittens and that is how they grow up. The thing that really struck me with Tracy on top of her fabulous customer service while purchasing your kitten, is the "after-care". I'm sure many breeders would leave you after the sale to go to your Vet if you have a problem or a question. Tracy not only keeps in constant contact with you to make sure everything goes well and your kitten gets well adjusted, with us when our kitten got the infection after neutering, she left her phone number and said "email or call any time", which was a great comfort to our daughter. 2 is certainly a handful with this breed, but if there was a need to refer anyone or we were to ever expand our Abby family, I would go no further than to contact Tracy again.

"Tracy was wonderful and very helpful. She treated you like you were the only person getting one of her kittens - she was so attentive & sent tons of pics of your prospective new furry kid. Easy peasy!!!" Ruth Peech --------------------------------------------------
""Tracy is just fabulous. We contacted her after losing our precious Abyssinian. We had a lot of questions for her, and she patiently answered them all. Once we decided on a kitten, Tracy sent us constant updates and pictures until he was ready to join us. Our Bambino is an absolute delight, a stunning example of all of the wonderful qualities of Abyssinians. He is beautiful and has the most loving, sweet, gentle temperment. He is extraordinarily patient with children. We wholeheartedly recommend Tracy." Jennifer McKee and Feza Gunalp --------------------------------------------------
"I loved dealing with Tracy from the moment we first spoke...she answered ALL my emails (and there were a lot!) and I feel as though I have made a friend in her. She emailed me after our little boy was born that night before she went to bed, just to let us know he was here! I continually received the most amazing pictures and detailed updates on him and his personality...I am not sure how she has time to give that much attention to each kitten and person ~ she obviously loves her cats and what she does very much. I have recommended her and would absolutely get another Aby only from her (I really want a sister for our boy ~ maybe when our 4 yr old twins get a little older!). Our boy is 1 1/2 years old now and SO affectionate and playful and has a ton of personality, we love him and can't imagine life without him! Thank you Tracy " Susan Deffe -------------------------------------------------- "From the initial contact to the perfect delivery of my kittens
by air, this was the most professional experience I have ever had with
a breeder. In addition, I felt that Tracy made the effort to make this
a personal experience so that it did not feel like a business transaction.
Bonnie Haugen --------------------------------------------------
"I had a wonderful experience dealing with Tracy. For one she is very friendly and accommodating unlike some of the breeders that I have talked to prior to Tracy. That was a huge deciding factor for me. As a matter of fact, I opted to fly to Vancouver to pick up Rusty my self and I made sure that I met Tracy in person. Up to now we are still in touch and I send her photos and updates on how my Rusty and Mickey are doing." Grace Castro --------------------------------------------------
"We adopted a blue girl 3 years ago and couldn't be happier either with Zoie or with Tracy and her cattery. She really loves her cats and that comes through with every e-mail. She will answer any questions and sends tons of really cute pictures. It was a really exciting experience with pictures arriving regularly, it was almost like adopting a human baby. Zoie has been happy, healthy and the most affectionate cat that we have ever had. She jumps onto our shoulders and rides around the house. When I see Aby kitten pictures I really feel like getting another one and I wouldn't deal with anyone other than Tracy." Lucie Brown --------------------------------------------------

"I couldn't have asked for a better breeder! Tracy is very invested in the health, happiness, and all-around well-being of her kittens. it was so great to receive pictures and updates about my kitten before I even got to take her home. the 'care package' that she prepares for every kitten when they go to their new home is great, as well. I really appreciated her following up with me afterwards, and her prompt and friendly answers to all of my questions. my aby was well-adjusted from day one, and has brought so much joy into my life. when I get another one (when, not if!) I will without a doubt see Tracy again!"
Kyndra Moeller --------------------------------------------------
"Our family received two kittens from Tracy in December of 2006. The cats have grown from the cutest most playful kittens into the most amazingly intelligent and beautiful cats I have ever known. Tracy’s work as a breeder speaks volumes through the wonderful companions that now grace our home. If you want to deal with a breeder who answers your questions, raises affectionate and gorgeous cats then you don’t have to look any further." Mark & Rhonda Harding --------------------------------------------------
Christine Nydegger --------------------------------------------------
"The first time my wife and I met Tracy and her family was about four years ago when we were looking for our very first Aby. Looking back we were very excited and wanted to make sure we located a very ethical breeder. So we were armed with MANY questions in our research. Tracy was most patience, and always encouraged us to ask as many questions as needed. She wanted us to be sure we felt comfortable with whatever decision we made and equally wanted to make sure we would provide a wonderful loving home for a kitten. She has a wonderful family and a very beautiful, tidy home. At each visit, all their Aby's would come running, greeting us at the door and always made sure they said their good byes. We were most impressed on how gorgeous, outgoing and affectionate all their cats were. From day one we were welcomed into their home and continue to keep in touch. With Tracy's dedication and knowledge we would highly recommend her to anyone looking to purchase an Aby kitten from a very dedicated responsible breeder. We are thrilled with our Abyssinian, Marra, she continues to be the joy of our lives!" Richard and Amiee Jacobs --------------------------------------------------

"Your relationship with Tracy does not end when the kitten passes over your threshold. She is happy to give advice and answer questions, and makes an effort to stay informed about any new research that affects her breed. We also got a great addition to the family in "Cairo"!" Lena Cimmarrusti --------------------------------------------------
Sarah Lee -------------------------------------------------- "I could not have been more pleased with her professionalism, compassion, and willingness to work with our family on creating a perfect match for our home. Our male Blue Abyssinian, Tut-Tut, is everything and more that she promised: healthy, muscular, playful, loving, demonstratively affectionate, smart and courageous . . . nothing daunts this little guy. We love him and couldn't imagine life without his antics." Miriam and Terry Huff --------------------------------------------------
Laurie Poole --------------------------------------------------
"The kittens are raised in an immaculately clean home. They are handled and socialized and in perfect health. Tracy is an ethical breeder and ensures the kittens are placed in responsible homes. She promptly answers questions and follows up to ensure the new kitten is adjusting to the new home."

"We couldn't be more pleased with out two Aby's that we purchased from Tracy several years ago. They are the the joy of our lives! Tracy was an absolute pleasure to deal with and we still keep in touch from time to time! She really cares. I would highly recommend Tracy for anyone looking to be owned by an Abyssinian. They are INCREDIBLE!!" Janice and Walter Mathews --------------------------------------------------
"10 out of 10!" Nathalie Bérard --------------------------------------------------
Kristina Minton -------------------------------------------------- "Luna and Zephyr were, and are, healthy, active and loving from the moment I brought them home. It was obvious they were loved and wonderfully cared for from the moment they were born. I would recommend kittens from Abayomi to anyone who wants a beautiful Aby." Denise Hurst --------------------------------------------------
TOP marks for this cattery!" Ruth Finnamore and Joan Fanjoy -------------------------------------------------- "I would recommend anyone who is interested in knowing more about the breed, and everyone wanting a truly well cared for and loving kitten to look here first. My Cleo is so special, everyone admires and wants her. Sorry, she's mine. Thank you Tracy for giving love to all your beautiful babes." Also, I read the other comments and agree with them all." Catherine Morales-Lash --------------------------------------------------
"Tracy was very professional and answered all our questions before we made the decision to take an Aby into our lives. We had to wait a bit for a ruddy male, our little Loki, to come along, but the wait was worth it! Tracy sent regular photos and updates and we were able to visit her and the kittens several times during their development and we are so happy with our little bundle of love and energy. He became rapid friends with our 2 year old Havana Brown and they play like demons, playing tag and tearing around our home like little race horses. We would recommend Tracy and her wonderful cats to anyone considering an Abyssinian." Paige Ackerman --------------------------------------------------

"After doing quite a lot of research on the breed and the available abby breeders in the area, I contacted Tracy and was more than impressed with her knowledge and willingness to share her experience, and the obvious care that Tracy and her family show the kittens. They kept me up to date on his progress before adoption (and will not release kittens until they are properly socialized and trained by their mom). When I went to pick him up I was impressed by the environment I found...the cats are allowed to roam the Fascianas' immaculate home just like they were their own pets and certainly not 'stock'. Kojo has been a joy to raise, he is gentle and playful with visitors, and has been described as 'like a dog' in his behaviour. In addition he is as healthy as can be. Tracy has kept in touch, is always available to answer questions and maintains an ongoing interest in how her kittens are doing in their new homes. I would absolutely recommend Abayomi to anyone interested in owning one of these remarkable companions." Eric Matheson --------------------------------------------------
"What a beautiful cat we have. She instantly became our favorite. She's been home with us for over a year trouble free. Tracy was great to deal, keeping us updated with photos. She was easy to contact and answered any questions we had promptly. I highly recommend Abayomi." Tony Mayan --------------------------------------------------
"My little boy, Irkyn, is my best friend. What a personality! Tracy takes amazing care of her cats and it shows! Anyone who meets Irkyn is completely taken by him. If you want an Abyssinian kitten, Tracy has a little one to fill your heart with joy. Chelsea Van Duren -------------------------------------------------- "I bought two wonderful Aby kits from Tracy, and they're exceptionally beautiful and beautifully socialized. Tracy was very generous in providing a refund when it turned out that one kit had a recently-discovered genetic problem--and she immediately stopped breeding from the affected queen. I would certainly buy kits from Tracy again. She's a great communicator and helps you know your kits from the moment you buy them--lots of great pictures, and my two--from different litters--were carefully socialized together before they came, so they're now utterly devoted to each other--more so than true littermates typically are! I bred Abys for a while so I really appreciate the elegance and personality of her cats, and her (wise) decision not to show any of hers, grand champion potential and all. I was reluctant to buy kits that needed shipping from Vancouver to Toronto, but my vet thought it was fine and you'd never have known they'd been through any stress at all--bouncy, affectionate, playful, and gorgeous--even the sick one who's by now cost a fortune but remains sweet-tempered and worth every cent. Tracy has helped pass the word among breeders so they now know how to minimize the risk of a genetic problem." Penelope Doob --------------------------------------------------

"10 out of 10!" Mary Shaw --------------------------------------------------
"I got a kitten from Tracy at the beginning of this year, and I can't say enough about how good the experience was. She is very knowledgeable about the breed and a true joy to deal with. The kitten we got is a wonderfully well adjusted little girl, we've never had a problem. Gordana Rioux --------------------------------------------------
"Tracy's Abyssinians are some of the best animals I have ever met. I fell in love with the kittens when I saw the pictures but when I met the mom cat named Shiraz I just knew that my kitten would be a fun loving energetic and loving cat as she got older too. Tracy's cats are raised in a very clean and happy home with exposure to children so they don't mind being handled at all. My cat Tosca is the most outgoing, social and affectionate cat I have ever owned and everyone who meets her agrees. Very beautiful and sleek cats that look very much like the ancient cats of Egypt. Highly recommended. Charmaine Draper --------------------------------------------------
This breeder is fabulous. I feel as if I’ve found a new friend!!!! Our family was so upset when we lost Jenni-Purr, our 17 yr. old aby. It was hard to imagine finding another aby that could make us happy. Then I found Tracy on the Internet. I called her and we had the best conversation. She was so compassionate and knowledgeable. I could tell by talking with her and viewing her web site that she had a real interest in the cats, and in fact, all animals. We immediately decided to adopt a female kitten from her. She took care of all the phone calls, paperwork and vet certification for us. All we had do was pay and show up at the airport. When we arrived to pick her up airport employees were standing around the crate admiring the kitten. They had never seen an aby. They were amazed at her beauty and friendly nature as she nudged the crate and purred. She was calm even after the trip from Canada to Texas.
I certainly made the right decision choosing Abayomi. The kitten, named Lillaby Lucille, is the most affectionate kitten I've ever had - and SO very smart! I’m convinced that Lillaby is trying to talk when she cries in different tones and turns her head to express herself. She does a good job of getting what she wants from us!!! I believe her WONDERFUL PERSONALITY is due to the care and attention given by Abaymoi from the day the kittens are born. Tracy and her family nurture the kittens and as a result, their kittens trust humans and depend upon them. In addition to that, they have cats that produce beautiful abys. She bonded to us instantly and that is just what we wanted. Then, one night last November our home caught fire was totally destroyed. Lillaby escaped and we couldn't find her. The next morning two amazed firemen found her inside what was left of the house, wet, covered with soot, crying and in shock. How brave she was. The firemen said they had never heard of a cat returning to a burned structure. We took her to the vet and she determined that Lillaby was fine. Back at our temporary home she quickly relaxed and after a few days she was her loving self again. I, too, was amazed she came back to the burned house after such a trauma. To me that is another sign of intelligence and connection to us.
(Kitten Photo) Even though we’ve had Lillaby for 10 months, Tracy is always helpful and always answers emails almost immediately. She is so attentive to owners. I don’t know how she has the time. Like I said earlier,I feel like. I have a new friend and ABAYOMI is AWESOME. Oh, and, what would I do with constant “head-butts” from Lillaby and the exercise I get picking up damp dishtowels that Lillaby drags upstairs to the laundry??? Such joy these Little Lions of Love bring!!!! Madeline Vanderburg
