TICA Supreme Grand Champion
ACFA Double Grand Champion
Bluewater ColdPlay of Aaliyah
"ColdPlay"

His sire is CH Victorybengals Steely of Bluewater
His dam is Wildlove AG Ebony of Bluewater

We are thrilled that ColdPlay is the first Silver Bengal to be named the top winner at On Safari! The competition was fierce, but friendly, and ColdPlay received many compliments from both judges and competitors alike. ColdPlay also became a Supreme Grand Champion in just 5 shows! He continues to amaze us in every way and we are so grateful to Jesse and Sam at Bluewater Bengals for allowing us the privilege of owning this wonderful boy! ColdPlay will now retire from the show ring and concentrate on what he loves doing best - greeting visitors that come to see him and making more beautiful silver babies. We are very happy with what he has sired so far -please click here for photos of kittens from his first four litters. Inquiries always welcome on our ColdPlay babies!

CH Victorybengals Steely of Bluewater
"Steely"

Since we first met Steely we have been amazed by his color, pattern, size, temperament and ability to sire the most spectacular silver babies we have seen. Just take a look at ColdPlay and Altamira! We would like to thank Jesse Bradford and Sam Underwood, Bluewater Bengals, for allowing us the privilege of using this spectacular silver male.

Gogee's Nirvana of Aaliyah
"Vanna"

Her sire is Gogee's Heavenly Daze
Her dam is Gogee's Lalique

While surfing through my favorite websites one day, I came upon Gene Ducote's available kittens page and Vanna caught my eye immediately. She was a silver baby with the whitest background I have ever seen combined with a super short coat. I thought she might be a valuable addition to our silver program and sent a deposit on her the same day.

Vanna is a loving, sweet girl and has fit in with everyone here perfectly.

Aaliyah Islands In The Stream
"Dolly"

Her sire is TICA Triple Grand Champion, ACFA Grand Champion Bluewater ColdPlay of Aaliyah
Her dam is ZenDada Artemis of Bluewater

Dolly is the beginning of our silver marble journey. She is a sweet, well put together baby and her pattern is almost a duplicate of her beautiful mom's pattern.

Dolly is pictured below at 4 months of age. We think she is absolutely beautiful with a great pattern and intense contrast!

We proudly introduce:

Nairobi Stormy Spirit of Aaliyah
"Stormy"

Her sire is PinyonPride Storm of Nairobi
Her dam is Nairobi Juma Rafiki

Stormy comes to us from Jill Orman, Legacie Bengals - many thanks to Jill for allowing us to have her in our silver program. Stormy is a solid girl with a lovely profile and wonderful whisker pads - we look forward to her contribution, although we hope she doesn't bless us with 11 kittens as she did for her previous owner!

Legacie Plata Belleza of Aaliyah
"Plata"

Her sire is Crestwood Clouded Fusion of Legacie
Her dam is Legacie Silver Impression

Plata comes to us from Jill Orman, Legacie Bengals. We have wanted a Silver Impression daughter for some time and when we saw she had been bred to Jill's new silver male, Cloud (a Wurthy grandson), we knew we had to have one of their babies! Plata is simply gorgeous - she is covered in beautiful rosettes and her personality is extremely out-going and curious (that means she is into EVERYTHING!). We can't wait to get Plata to some shows and when she's old enough to breed her to ColdPlay. Plata is pictured here at 4 months.
