This information has been posted in response to false information available on the web site of Koos Hendriks, Koosje van Tutte's cattery.

In December of 2008, we imported a kitten from Koos.   She was registered by Koos with NEOCAT as "Koosje van Tutte's Viva Las Vegas".  

In order to add our cattery name "of Purrsia" we had to change her name in view of the length.  TICA allows this if the cat has not been shown,  therefore we changed her name to "Koosje van Tutte Cassidy of Purrsia".    TICA WILL NOT allow punctuation in a cattery name so TICA dropped the apostrophe and the "s" from "Tutte".   

Koos is claiming that he did not breed this cat because of this name change and has posted this misinformation on his site.  

Unfortunately we were unable to reach a compromise with Koos and he has resorted to name calling and insults to which we will not respond.    We are sorry to share this with you in this manner.  Cassidy is lovely,  and we are happy to have her as a part of our breeding program.

These are the facts.
If you would like further information and/or corresondence from TICA's rules committe or Executive Office,  I will happily provide that to you.

This is a copy of Cassidy's TICA registration slip.  It should dispell the inaccurate statements made regarding the breeders cattery name and color of this cat.

It clearly shows she was bred by Koosje van Tutte cattery,  shows Koos Hendriks as the breeder and also states that she is a chocolate spotted tabby oriental shorthair.
