House of horrors of the West couple – Telegraph

Denis Evsyukov

There is no information about whether Fred’s head suffered in childhood. But it is known that Frederick Walter Stephen West was born into a poor family of agricultural workers in the county of Herefordshire in the west of England. There were eight children in all, but only six survived. Until the age of fifteen, the boy did not have success in his studies, but together with his family he worked on a farm and had the ability to work with wood … And at fifteen he either dropped out of school, or graduated from it – the data differ. Nevertheless, he did not differ in special literacy. But work on the farm instilled in him respect for work and the habit of stealing. In addition, Fred remembered for the rest of his life the words of his father that he can do whatever he wants. The main thing is not to get caught. nine0006 Fred with his sisters

There are very contradictory facts about this period of his life. For example, Fred claimed that he had his first sexual experience with his mother at the age of twelve. In addition, he repeatedly mentioned incest between his father and sisters. Although these claims are refuted by his brother.

Well, okay, the boy has grown up. And as a teenager, he began to show rudeness and a consumer attitude towards girls. And after the accident, he generally became aggressive. The accident happened a few months after his seventeenth birthday. Fred bought a motorcycle and crashed on it, breaking his arm and leg. In addition, he lay in a coma for about a week due to a head injury. nine0006

This was the first time that Fred West’s head had been hit. The second incident happened two years later. Nineteen-year-old Fred fell down the fire escape. True, it is not specified under what circumstances this incident occurred. Although one of the sources says that a girl pushed him down the stairs when he molested her, and this happened in a club. This time the guy did not come to his senses for only a day.

In June 1961, Fred was arrested for molesting a thirteen-year-old girl. Not everywhere you can find a mention of who this girl was and what actually happened. But some sources say that the girl was Fred’s sister. And it was not at all harassment. Kitty reported that her brother raped her for about six months. He confessed to the police, genuinely wondering what he had done wrong. But Fred escaped the trial: Kitty refused to testify. Apparently, under pressure from the mother. nine0006

After this incident, the family disowned him and Fred moved to live with his aunt in another settlement. He established relations with his family only in 1962. Although many relatives did not want to take him back.

In September 1962, Fred met his old acquaintance. The meeting took place in North Lanarkshire, in the south of Scotland. How Fred ended up there is not known. Katherine “Rena” Costello was a prostitute at the time and was already pregnant. Which did not prevent Fred from first transporting her to Herewardshire, and then getting married in mid-November of the same year. nine0006

And in March 1963 Rena’s daughter was born. It immediately became evident that the girl was unusual: her father, as it turned out, was a Pakistani. Apparently, for this reason, Rena left her native Herefordshire and was not going to return. And it was for this reason that Fred and Rena came up with a story: allegedly, Catherine did lose her child, and the couple adopted this girl.

The Wests originally lived at Aunt Fred’s house, but then moved twice. The second time they moved was just after the birth of Charmaine, Rena’s daughter by a Pakistani. And they returned to the same place where Fred brought Rena – Bridgeton near Glasgow. Summer 19At 64, Katherine gave birth to her second daughter, Ann Marie. During this time, Fred worked as an ice cream man…

Quite a lot of interesting things are known about this period. First, the couple could afford to hire a nanny. Isa McNeil communicated quite well with Rena and characterized her as a caring mother. While the father of the family had a habit of walking to the left. Rena found out about his tricks on the side pretty quickly. She also took a lover. When Fred found his wife in the arms of John McLachlan, he tried to beat her, but was rebuffed. From that day on, West often beat his wife, which her lover told about. Also, Mr. McLachlan mentioned that Fred was the one who was afraid to attack men, so he took out his anger on women and children. nine0006

Secondly, Fred had an affair with Ann McFall. According to some sources, she was a friend of the nanny, according to others, Rena’s friend. But everywhere it is said that she was only sixteen and that she appeared in the West house quite often.

Thirdly, Fred was cruel to both daughters. He once hit Charmaine for asking for some ice cream. In general, the girls did not stick out when the father was at home. They were only allowed to leave their seats when he left in his van. In addition, Fred, in his own words, had a child from his mistress. nine0006

Despite the strife in the family, Rena and Fred did not get divorced. Their first long separation did not occur until December 1965. Fred West is mentioned to have accidentally killed a little boy. Apparently, this really happened by accident, as the court acquitted him. But Fred was afraid of lynching by the locals. Therefore, a month after the incident, he took the children and took them to Gloucestershire.

Rena joined him only in February 1966. And she didn’t come alone. Isa McNeil and Ann McFall went with her in search of a better life. Only now they did not find any “better life”. Fred got a job as a driver at a local slaughterhouse and hardened to the end. By spring 19For 66 years, he had already terrorized all three. The reasons why Isa and Ann did not leave the family remain unknown, because now the beatings and tyranny as a whole extended to them.

Moreover, Fred persuaded Rena to start prostituting again. To make matters worse, there are suggestions that Fred raped Charmaine! But the girl was only three … Rena could not stand it. The woman turned to her lover with a request to protect her, the children and the nanny from her husband. A plan was devised that would result in Rena and the children and MacNeil escaping back to Scotland. But everything went wrong. Fred is supposed to have been told about the plan by Ann, who wants to marry him. nine0006

At the appointed time, Ann and Fred arrived at the meeting point. McFall informed the others that she was staying with West to “look after” the children. A fight broke out between MacLachlan and West, someone called the police… As a result, Rena and Isa fled to Scotland with Rena’s lover, while Fred and Ann returned to their children. Catherine did not abandon the children, she constantly visited them, torn between two houses. But the trips stopped for a while when one day Rena, in a fit of resentment and anger, left with a few things from West and McFall. She was charged with theft and given a suspended sentence. What is interesting: at the court hearing, Fred confirmed that he and Ann live together, but in the near future she is going to return to Scotland . ..

And Ann McFall really disappeared! According to some sources, she was last seen in July 1967, according to others – in August … True, the sources agree on one thing: the girl was only eighteen and she was eight months pregnant. No one reported her disappearance, and Fred West initially did not confess to the murder. But one day he let slip that he killed the girl “accidentally” during an argument – he beat him too hard. Only here, dismemberment, the absence of some phalanges of the fingers, a fetus cut out from the abdomen and ropes around the wrists somehow do not fall under “accidentally”. The girl’s body was buried in a cornfield near Much Markle. nine0006

After McFall’s “departure,” Rena tried to get back together with her husband. For a long time she was not enough – a year later she ran away again, leaving the children to Fred. And a year later, in 1969, he met someone who “was close in spirit.”

Rosemary Letts was only fifteen when she met West at the bus stop. At first, they met only at the bus stop, while Fred tried to prove to her that he was not a bum or a tramp. In the end, he began to walk Rosemary home. Literally from the very first hours of their communication, Fred found out that the girl did not have a permanent partner and she was promiscuous. Rosemary quickly became a frequent visitor to the West’s home. From the very beginning, Fred told her about the children and that his wife, poor, unfortunate, had left him. The girl immediately noticed that the upbringing of children was neglected, and tried to surround them with care. It is mentioned that she repeatedly asked Fred to take the girls with him on their dates. nine0006

When she met West, Rose worked at a bakery, but just a few weeks later she quit her job to take care of Fred’s daughters. Some time later, Rosemary brought her boyfriend to meet her parents. The girl’s mother immediately disliked West. It got to the point that Fred was threatened with a complaint to the social services if he did not end this relationship.

But Rosemary ignored her parents’ threats and continued to see him. Actually, the parents turned to social services and the girl was placed in a special institution for difficult teenagers. Rosemary was allowed to visit her parents on the weekends, but most often she used this time to visit Fred. The girl left the institution for difficult teenagers on her sixteenth birthday. At this time, Fred was serving a sentence (either for theft, or for non-payment of taxes …) The term was short, only 30 days, but Rosemary had to return from the special institution to her parents. nine0006

But when Fred came out and picked up his daughters from social services, they got back together – Rosemary left her parents’ house and rented an apartment in Cheltenham. In February 1970, the girl’s father somehow managed to get his daughter examined by a doctor. Rosemary was pregnant. The girl was given a choice and she decided to stay with West. Soon the couple left the apartment in Cheltenham and moved to Gloucester. In mid-October 1970, Rose gave birth to a daughter. The girl was named Heather Ann. Only now it was not long to rejoice: Fred was imprisoned again – theft. True, this time not for a month, but for six months. During his imprisonment, the girl occupied all three girls, and she was only seventeen. nine0006

Ann Marie said that she and Charmaine tried to treat Rosemary almost like a mother, but received cruelty in return. Charmaine, over the years of living with Fred, has grown in herself the ability to endure both physical and moral attacks. To many provocations from Rosemary, she reacted extremely calmly or even answered that “Mom will come and save me.”

Her friend, who lived on the floor above, also mentioned the girl’s resilience. But my mother didn’t come. And the girl’s behavior infuriated Rosemary more and more every day. It even went as far as a stab wound, for which there are medical records. And they are dated March 1971 years old – the time when Fred was serving his sentence. Charmaine disappeared before he was released. According to Rosemary, the girl left with her mother. But the destinations were different each time. For example, at school she said that the girl had gone to London with her mother. And to the former neighbors – to Bristol … But Ann Marie Fred did say about Scotland.

In fact, Charmaine’s body lay in the basement until Fred got out of jail. Unlike the other victims, he did not dismember her. Although after the exhumation her kneecaps were not found, some phalanges of the fingers … As it turned out later, West left some of the bones of his victims as souvenirs. Charmaine he buried in the backyard. nine0006

A couple of months later, Rena Costello showed up. Many acquaintances of Katherine claimed that the well-being of her daughters worried her very much. There have been suggestions that this time she decided to meet with West to discuss custody of the girls. But no one else saw her. Rena’s body was dismembered and buried in plastic bags.

At the end of January 1972, Fred and Rosemary got married. And then they moved again. On June 1, Rosemary gave birth to her second child. And again a girl! Some time after Mei’s birth, she began to engage in prostitution. For this, the family had a whole upper floor equipped. The couple found clients through ads, and Fred also brought neighbors and acquaintances from work. Rose’s clients weren’t just men. Moreover, when the women came, Fred was often present and involved. Here Rosemary was incomparable: she showed cruelty, which those who practice BDSM could only envy. nine0006

In general, the topic of slavery and cruelty in sex was a separate story. This is exactly what both Fred and Rosemary agreed on. Such fetishes gave them enough pleasure to collect a bunch of devices, tools, photo and video materials in a short time. Their collection also included videos of child abuse…

The top floor, by the way, was well equipped! As an avid voyeur, Fred provided himself with plenty of ways to watch what was going on in the room where Rose was “having fun”. A burning red light meant that the girl was “busy”, and at that time Fred was either peeping or listening to what was happening through the baby monitor. nine0006

It is known that most of the money from prostitution was spent on improving housing conditions. Moreover, Fred and Rosemary’s father even opened their own cafe! By the way, dad showed up in 1977, deciding to forgive his daughter. True, there are references to the fact that he later wanted to “visit” her on the top floor … There were even rumors that Heather Rose gave birth to her own father.

By 1983 Rosemary had eight children. Naturally, not everyone was from West, but he, as they say, did not bother with this. When they reached the age of seven, the children began to work. They were forbidden to leave the site, and any sin was punished. As a rule, punishments were corporal. Some moments of the type are mentioned: shallow cuts with a knife on the chest of a child, beating with whatever comes to hand … Even Fred suffered from Rose’s aggressiveness: once she was chasing him with a knife. nine0006

Alas, but that’s not all. In September 1972, Ann Marie was raped. The girl was only eight. She was taken to the basement, forced to undress … All subsequent acts followed this pattern. From the age of thirteen, the girl began to engage in prostitution. A month after Anne Marie was raped, the Wests hired a nanny, Caroline Roberts. She was picked up on the road while she was voting. The girl was told that Rosemary worked as a masseuse so that there would be no questions about the huge number of “guests”. But this already alarmed Caroline. And Mr. West’s frequent talk about sex and illegal abortions…

The girl had enough for almost 3 months and she said that she was leaving. Rosemary and Fred were not ready to let her go. No, she left, but a month later, while catching a ride, she met the Wests again. Fred apologized for his behavior and in general, according to Caroline herself, they behaved very nicely. She agreed to be given a ride by the couple. They just took her away. The girl got into the car and literally immediately terrible oddities began – Fred told Rose to check if Caroline was a virgin! When the girl panicked, Fred hit her and she lost consciousness. Caroline woke up already in the basement of the Wests, where she was kept for about a day, raped and beaten. It is noteworthy that after all these atrocities, the West couple offered the girl to stay with them as a nanny. Actually, Roberts agreed and ran away at the first opportunity. Most likely, the “secret” life of the West would have been revealed if Caroline had found the strength to come to the court session. But the case fell apart. nine0006

And three months after the trial, the West couple killed Linda Gough. According to some reports, Linda either rented a room from the Wests, or worked as a nanny for them … But she definitely lived with the Wests for some time, which her mother knew about. She came there in search of her daughter. Rose was wearing Linda’s slippers, but the couple informed Mrs. Gough that the girl had left, leaving them with some of her belongings. Nobody else saw her. Fred buried Linda under the garage. As in other cases, the girl’s body was dismembered, several vertebrae, kneecaps and some phalanges of the fingers were missing. After the exhumation, experts suggested that the girl was abused: a film was wound around her mouth (apparently so that she would not scream), and tubes were inserted into her nose … The remains of a rope were also found with the remains – the girl was tied up. The presumed cause of death is strangulation. nine0006

Fifteen-year-old Carol Ann Cooper, who disappeared from a bus stop in November 1973, was killed in much the same way. Her dismembered body was found in the basement of the West’s house. Lucy Partington was also buried there. Like Carol, Lucy got into Fred’s car … But, if the investigators do not know how much the tormentors mocked Carol, then Lucy, presumably, stayed in the Wests’ basement for about a week. This assumption was put forward based on the fact that the girl disappeared on December 27, and on January 3, Fred went to the hospital with a hand injury, which he probably received as a result of the dismemberment of Lucy’s corpse. nine0006

Fred’s pen healed and in April 1974 he stole the “tulip” – Teresa Siegenthaler, 21 years old. The girl had a pronounced Swiss accent, so Fred called her “tulip” or “Dutch girl”. Teresa hitchhiked, for which she paid the price. In the same year, Shirley Hubbard (age 15) disappeared from a bus stop. Experts suggest that all these girls have been in the basement of the West’s house. From there they never left. Judging by the remains found there, the West’s bullying progressed, they became more and more atrocious, the number of injuries grew … Fred tried to hide Therese’s body under a false chimney pipe. And Shirley just buried in the basement. Both victims were dismembered. Along with their remains, as in the cases of Lucy and Carol, ropes, woven fabric and film were found. Shirley’s face was completely wrapped in film, and a tube was placed in her nose. nine0006

Juanita Mott (aged 18) went missing in April 1975. And after that, a three-year period of calm began in the life of the Wests. Fred concreted the floor in the basement and set up a room for the older children. During this period, the couple, presumably, did not commit murders. But who knows if it is? Although there are suggestions that Rose and Fred really calmed down, because experts do not associate the next murder with the couple’s perverted sexual fetishes.

In May 1978, Shirley Robinson died. Before that, she lived with the Wests for almost a year: Shirley was in a relationship with both, being bisexual. Moreover, she was pregnant by Fred. And at the same time, Rosemary was carrying another child of West … Either the hormones surged, or the relationship deteriorated, but Shirley was killed. Her body was buried in the West’s garden. And during the exhumation, no traces of bullying were found, as was the case with other victims. Which, in fact, became the basis for believing that in this case there was no sexual motive. nine0006

But in August 1979, when Alison Chambers was murdered, he was clearly visible! A sixteen-year-old girl got a job as a nanny to the Wests, having escaped from a shelter. She worked there for a short time. Her body was found in the Saudi West with head straps and other signs of torture and abuse.

And the kids have grown up… Really grown up. In 1979, Ann Marie (aged 15) ran away from home. Now the grown-up Heather and May came into view of the pervert Fred. The girls, along with their brother, developed a “survival plan” in the West house: they washed and changed only when Fred was not in the house and never left alone with him. Nevertheless, the girls did not manage to avoid suffering. As May later recalled, Heather got more than her. And the girl eventually began to show the symptoms of the victim, her behavior showed signs of a mental disorder: she bit her nails to the blood, suffered from nightmares, could not sit still, tried not to be alone with the males and did not let them close, etc. Because of her behavior, Rose and Fred decided that she was a lesbian. nine0006

Heather also ignored the rules. Initially, Rosemary and Fred forbade the children to tell anyone about what was happening in their home. And the rest of the kids obeyed. But not Heather. Not only did her friends once see signs of beatings on the girl’s body in the locker room, but rumors about Rose’s activities leaked into the school. Heather confirmed some of them. Of course, she did not tell right and left what Rose was doing at home, but sometimes she shared with friends what her mother calls her, how she beats the girl and what her father does. nine0006

Fred’s colleague learned about it. And now the “caring father” began to accompany the girl to school and pick her up after. And Heather dreamed of escaping. She told May and Steven (brother) that she wanted to “run away and never see people”. In 1987, the girl began to look through job ads. She even wrote to some places, but was refused. And in June, Heather went missing. The parents told the rest of the children that the girl had run away with her mistress. May and Steven offered to call the police, but Fred said not to. Allegedly, Heather was involved in credit card fraud. nine0006

Over the next few years, Fred “joked” that they would end up “under the flagstones like Heather” if any of the kids talked or misbehaved. Rosemary placed a table on Heather’s grave so that the family could gather in the garden for a barbecue. It was the children’s stories of threats to “be buried like Heather”, as well as the ever-changing testimony of the Wests, that later became the basis for excavations in the garden.

Hell ended in 1992. Fred raped his thirteen-year-old daughter (name not given). And after several similar acts, the girl shared with a friend, who, in turn, told her mother. And the mother made an anonymous appeal to the police. In August of that year, the West’s home was ransacked. But not about rape, but under the pretext of searching for stolen property. At the same time, multiple pornographic videos were found, although the rape of the girl was not among them. The girl nevertheless testified, starting the story with the fact that the first case of violence occurred when she was only eleven. nine0006

All of the West children were placed in a foster home and were examined. Traces of both physical and moral violence were revealed. The investigation has begun. Initially, Fred was charged with rape, and Rose was charged with child abuse, incitement and obstruction of the investigation. They were also interrogated about their eldest daughter. On August 12, Rosemary was released on bail on the condition that she would not approach either Fred or the children.

When the Wests were arrested, Anne Marie showed up. The girl testified and agreed to appear in court. She described in detail the atrocities of Fred and Rose, and also reported that she and her husband had been trying for several years to find the mother and sister of Ann Marie. In addition, they said that shortly before the disappearance, Heather kept in touch with Anne Marie’s husband, although she was against the fact that he appeared at the West’s house to talk with Fred. She was afraid that Fred and Rose would kill them both. nine0006

Interestingly, May refused to contact the investigation. She denied the facts of violence and did not want Fred to be imprisoned. And in June 1993, a trial was to take place. Only Ann Marie and her raped thirteen-year-old sister suddenly refused to testify. Moreover, the girl expressed a desire to return to the family!

The Wests were acquitted. True, the children were not returned to them. Rumors began to circulate that the charges against the Wests were trumped up. The police had no choice but to search for the missing Rena, Charmaine and Heather. Social services also expressed concern: Heather has not been declared anywhere for several years. The only clue was Fred’s words about “under the slabs”. Based on his words, the police managed to get a warrant. It happened on February 1994 years old. When the police came with him to the West, both criminals were alarmed. And the next morning, Fred confessed to “manslaughter.” By this point, the police had already begun digging, so Fred agreed to show Heather’s burial site. Only after the exhumation, several bones were not found…

After a long interrogation, West admitted that two more bodies were buried in the garden: Shirley Robinson and her friend. These horrific “discoveries” led the police to the idea that not only the West garden, but the entire house should be carefully examined. As a result, Fred confessed to nine more murders. He gave several names and that he buried five bodies in the basement and a sixth under the bathroom on the first floor. These bodies were exhumed at the beginning of March 1994 years old. They were not only dismembered, but also mutilated.

Fred West insisted that Rosemary knew nothing about this. Which the police were very skeptical about. Rose was interrogated. She did not consider herself guilty, even after hearing accusations of Linda Gough’s murder. By the beginning of May, Fred confessed to the murder of his first wife, her daughter, and agreed to show the burial place of Ann McFall. Although he never admitted that he killed her. In June 1994, Fred and Rose were on trial. Initially, he was accused of killing eleven people, and Rosemary – nine. But at the trial, Rose publicly rejected Fred, causing his mental state to deteriorate. Now Fred stopped defending his wife. nine0006

In early July, he was charged with the murder of Ann McFall, whose remains had been exhumed in early June. And then West admitted that Rose took part in eleven murders (with the exception of the McFall case). Rosemary denied everything, said that she hated her husband, and put on a mask of a grieving mother. On January 1, 1995, Fred hanged himself in his cell. After his death, the case almost fell apart, but still managed to prove that it was Rose who killed Charmaine, and also that she was involved in nine other murders. The trial was long and hard, but Rosemary was given a life sentence. nine0006

Chantilly Tiffany – a detailed description of the breed

A magnificent, long-haired breed of cats, which was the result of uncontrolled mating of two pets and more than once stood on the verge of extinction – this is the Foreign Longhair or Chantilly Tiffany. People tend to regret missed opportunities and wish for the unattainable, which is exactly what happened with Chantilly. While the breed was actively bred, it was not interesting, as soon as fluffy cats became a rarity, they were coveted by the whole world. nine0006

of catfan catfire breeds, young age. Wanting to have pets, American Janie Robinson acquired two charming fluffy and heterogeneous kittens, deep chocolate color. The animals followed their instincts and, having reached the age of one, gave birth to kittens. The kids looked like their parents and Janie decided that such kittens would always find worthy owners. Although the animals were actually outbred, Janie Robinson did not interfere with regular matings and her pets Tom and Shirley produced more than fifty “twin kittens”. nine0006

The story could have ended before it began, when Janie Robinson got tired of breeding chocolates. However, the animals were spotted by Burmese cat breeder, also an American, Sidzhin Lund. The woman bought the remaining Janie cats and resolutely began breeding work. Siji showed pets named Foreign Longhair at an out-of-competition show and filed a petition for breed recognition with TICA (International Cat Association). Further, two “incidents” happened at once: the name Foreign long-haired cat seemed too general to the experts and they returned the documents to the breeder. Having come up with a new name Tiffany Theater (the name of the first theater in Hollywood), Sigi again applied and at 1979 TICA provisionally recognized the breed as a variety of the Burmese cat.

For reference! Chantilly Tiffany and the Burmese do not share a common gene pool, and the latter has never participated in the former’s breeding program.

The word is not a sparrow, but incorrect information about Chantilly Tiffany has spread all over the world. Given the small number of livestock and assigned relationship with the Burmese cat, the “chocolates” actually lost their chances for full recognition. Sidzhin Lund gave up after the refusal of recognition from the American Cat Association (ACA), and Tracy Oraas, a fierce fan of Chantilly Tiffany, an enterprising and very active “lady” from Canada, took over the “baton”. nine0006

Important! Another confusing point is that the Tiffany cats, bred in London in 1981, are descendants of the Burmese and Persian cats.

Tracey Oraas not only saved the breed from extinction, she painstakingly studied the details of the origin of the Chantilly and proved to TICA that the attributed relationship of “Chocolates and Burmese” is a mistake. Investigation, work on fixing standards and developing a breeding system lasted from 1988 to 1992. The last representatives of the old-format Chantilly, Havana, Nibelung, Somali and Angora cats participated in the work on the restoration of the breed. The TICA experts could not stand the “pressure” of Oraas and did not find any arguments for refusing to recognize the new breed under the name Tiffany Chantilly.

This is interesting! Sidzhin Lund and Tracy Oraas deliberately chose such an unusual name for the breed. The word “Tiffany” has always been associated with fashion, style and luxury, and “Chantilly” has several meanings, it was the name of the most beautiful city and castle near Paris, in cooking “Chantilly” is called whipped cream. nine0140

Appearance

Chantilly Tiffany is an unusually beautiful, harmonious pet with a luxurious coat. Due to the dilution of the gene pool, the breed received a variety of colors and acquired a pronounced structure of the coat – a collar, breeches, wavy hair on the ears and a “stuffed” tail. Along with impressive volumes, the cat has average dimensions and weight from 3 to 5 kilograms.

Under the luxurious appearance hides a strong, muscular and very “pleasant” cat in character. In accordance with the standard description of the breed, Chantilly has the following differences:

  • The head of is in the form of a blunt triangle with a broad, slightly rounded forehead. The cheeks are taut, the whiskers are pronounced and rounded. Mustaches are long and thick. The chin is medium, forming a straight line with the nose pad. Nose bridge of medium width with a slight bend at the transition to the forehead.
  • The eyes of are oval or almond-shaped, wide open, set close and comparatively low.
  • The ears of the are large and deep, although due to their fluffy coat they appear small. The auricle is wide and almost completely covered with long hair. The ears are set wide, low and at a slight inclination, slightly turned away from the muzzle. nine0117
  • The body of is long, athletic, lean, but not thin.
  • Legs – in proportion to the height of the body, strong. The brush is almost round, small.
  • Tail – proportional, tapering to the tip, covered with long and very dense hair.

Chantilly Tiffany’s “fur coat” is completely devoid of undercoat, even in the photo you can see how soft, light and silky the coat of pets is. The original chocolate palette was diluted with an infusion of blood from other breeds. nine0006

According to the standard, Chantilly can come in the following colors:

  • Cinnamon, brown and cinnamon.
  • Faun.
  • Blue and purple.

In addition to the solid color, the breed received merkel and tabby patterns from its “relatives”. The color of the iris varies in a copper-gold palette and is in harmony with the color of the coat.

Character and upbringing

Kittens of the Chantilly Tiffany breed are very playful and inquisitive, and until the “lump” grows up, there will be no peace. Pets grow up quite quickly and by the age of one, Chantilly turns into a calm, balanced and thinking cat. A distinctive feature of character is the ability to make independent decisions based on one’s own thoughts, and this is a rather twofold trait. The ward never “naughty” intentionally – this is a plus, but Chantilly is not perfectly obedient either. nine0006

An animal that has grown up chooses one of the family members as its owner and becomes attached to him with all his soul. It is known that pets do not tolerate parting with the owner very well, and stress affects health and life expectancy. However, affection does not make the cat intrusive, the ward always watches over its owner, but does not require absolute attention. Chantilly Tiffany is just as playful as it should be for chic cats – a little chasing a feather and that’s enough. nine0006

Pets are not talkative, but communicate with pleasure through meowing, in everyday life their voice is quiet, soft and unobtrusive, which cannot be said about periods of sexual hunting. Chantilly Tiffany do not like water and walks – this is not a “royal” business.

Maintenance and care

If you’re ready for a combing tirade, you can relax, it won’t happen. Yes, Chantilly Tiffany is a long-haired cat and needs to be groomed, however, the pet does not have an undercoat, so its coat does not get tangled. During seasonal molting, of course, you will have to more carefully monitor the coat or collect a “worn coat” throughout the dwelling. After molting, cats are recommended to be redeemed. nine0006

Ears need special attention. The dense wool cover contributes to increased sweating of the liquid, which leads to the rapid formation of earwax.
