About Hambrvin LaPerms
The LaPerm originates from one kitten, called Curly, who was a farm cat on a cherry orchard in the Dalles, Oregon in USA. This part of North America used to be native to the Wishram tribe hence you will find many LaPerms have North American Indian themed names. Given the breed's farm cat roots, LaPerm's are known to be a very hardy breed. More detailed information about their genetic history can be found at The LaPerm Cat Club Official Site. The LaPerm was first introduced to the UK in 2002 and is still therefore, a rare breed.

We are now competing at GCCF (The Governing Council of the Cat Fancy) shows at intermediate level and hope to reach champion status as the breed continues to progress. LaPerms are already at champion level within TICA (The International Cat Association).
My girls attend GCCF shows in and around the north west and I am very keen to promote this new and exciting breed. If you want details of any shows we may be attending in the future, so you can come and meet the girls and learn more about the breed, please do not hesitate to contact me .
