We would like to dedicate this page to all the wonderful people that have adopted one of our kittens and welcomed them as an important member of their family. Here are some of the beautiful letters we have received...

Dear Kelley, I would be more than happy to share my experience with anyone who is interested in adopting a kitten outside of CA. Some may find it a comfort if they are a bit apprehensive of making a commitment without physically visiting the environment in which they are raised. I can assure them that you are a reputable breeder. I just wanted to give you a quick update. First, let me just say thank you for taking such great care of our Axle. He has brought such joy to our home. He is very warm and affectionate and enjoys cuddling every chance he gets. He has a lot of room to roam about the house and enjoys playing with his basketball and football. We could not be any happier with him, and we’ll provide him with all our love in return. Thank you for this blessing you bestowed on us.
Sincerely,
Cheryl and Mike ~ Scottsdale, AZ

Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We are so grateful to be able to share in the joy that our kittens bring to their new families. We are so pleased that Axle has become part of a family that will love him so much. It makes us so happy to know how great he is doing and how much fun he is having.

Hi Kelley, I just wanted to thank you for all of your help and advice. As you know, we got our red tabby persian, Seamus from you and immediately loved him so much, we had to get his brother, Siegfried. The two of them are well-mannered and are so sweet to my husband and I as well as our three young children. You have given them such a great start in life and in my experience a breeder like you is not easy to find. I am so happy and appreciative of these two purrbaby boys! Seamus loves to roll over on his back when you pet him and show you his belly! Siegfried is a little more shy but sweet as he can be and becoming a big love bug. We are so happy. Thanks so much. Blessings to you and your wonderful family. Sincerely,
Frances and Matthew Jason ~ Arkansas

Thank you very much Frances and Matthew for your wonderful update. We are so happy that Seamus and Siegfried have become part of a family that truly adores them. We enjoy hearing how much love our kittens are bringing to your family.

Hi Kelley, Have been meaning to write you since I got my baby Annie from you. She is adorable -- such a love! My husband is crazy about her, also. She's the sweetest, most loving kitten I've ever had. And so beautiful!! We love her so much, and she is so much company for us. My Hubby fusses about her, worries constantly that she's lonely and doesn't like leaving her alone, as she might "Miss us"! He calls her "The baby"! Our old cat, 15 years old, had to be euthanized a few months ago, and Annie has been wonderful to cheer us both up. The old one was never very affectionate, so Annie is a real treat to have around. She follows me around the house like a dog would. Thanks again, Kelley, for our Baby! She's a treasure! Annie is the most wonderful gift anyone ever gave me!!

Carol Oakley

We are absolutely thrilled to hear that you and your husband consider Annie such a treasure! We appreciate you keeping us updated on how great it is to have her as part of your family.

Hi Kelley, I just wanted to let you know Sebastian, our new white persian, is doing awesome in his new home! The whole family is already "in love with him" !!! My dog and other cat are adjusting to him very well and I know soon they will be the best of friends. I can't thank you enough for this beautiful cat. If I'm lucky enough to get another persian someday Windy Valley Persians will be my first choice! Thanks again, Tricia Tracy

We are so very happy that Sebastian has found such a wonderful home and that everyone has adjusted so well. Thank you for your kind words!

Hi Kelley, Just wanted to drop you a note to thank you for the two cream and white male kittens that my mother and I recently adopted. They are sooo much fun! I had forgotten how ACTIVE kittens could be! My mom and I say we're getting alot more exercise! lol. They are beautiful, healthy babies and LOVE the food you suggested. My "Charley" sleeps with my husband and I. Mom's "Oliver" sleeps with her. They are just the sweetest purrballs I've ever seen!! And Mom has a "new little friend" after losing her elderly cat last September. I had so hoped a new kitten would fill a void and it appears to have done just that, she is in love!! Thanks so much Kelley, you are a real sweetheart! Melody Jones

Thank you to Melody, we are so exicted you and your family are happy with the kittens you adopted from Windy Valley Persians. We know it is difficult to lose a pet and we are so very happy that Oliver has helped to fill that void for your Mom. We really appreciate to hear that Charley and Oliver are doing so well with their new family!

Hi Kelley, My husband and I adopted a beautiful persian kitten that we named Hank.. We are buying a house in April, once we move in (looks like it will be finished in September) we will be adopting another kitten from you. Hank is doing excellent and makes not only us but anyone that comes over laugh so much. He has an amazing personality and we are extremely blessed to have a cat that makes Dustin and I so happy. Thank you so much for providing us with a cat we cant get enough of!!!!!!!

Angela Campbell

Thank you to Angela, we are so happy that Hank is with a family that loves and enjoys him as much as you do. We look forward to you adopting another kitten from Windy Valley Persians.

Hi Kelley, Just wanted to drop you a short note. Chenin is still sitting back watching, hissing if she thinks the action is getting too close for her comfort. Chance is still trying to make sure Stormy knows he was here first. Stormy is comfortable, eating, and purring up a storm. I just wanted to again thank you. Each of them have their own qualities and are great cats. Chenin is a pleasure and her mothering side still kicks in when she hears them whining or playing too rough. Chance is still doing the sucking thing at bedtime and seems to be 2x the size of Stormy. He is still mad but is getting over it. Stormy is the lap cat and I now understand what you meant about her purring. You only have to look at her and the motor is going. She is my love bug of the bunch. For whatever the reason was that I found you and the cattery I am truly grateful and want you to know I am so happy that I was able to have not only 1 but 3 of your cats. They are a pleasure to have. I will keep you posted and have a great 4th of July.

Talk to you soon,
Krista, Chenin, Chance, and Stormy

Windy Valley Persians would like to say thank you to Krista and her ever increasing family. Thanks for the update Krista and we would love to see new pictures of everyone.

Hi Kelley,

Hercules is doing great. He is sooooooooo lovable. It is amazing, he loves being right next to you. He sleeps on the side of Wilsons neck. And when I am trying to wake up Wilson, Herc licks his face as if to wake him up. Wilson wakes up laughing. He is such a love muffin.
Thank you. Nancy

Thank you Nancy for the wonderful update on Hercules. He sure is a handsome young fella! We are so happy that he has become part of such a wonderful family.

Hi Kelley,

I am so very happy and honored to contribute to your long overdue Testimonial Page. I have had pets of all sorts in my 50 years, and was given my very first Persian for my "Sweet 16" birthday. He was a gorgeous red cameo I named George. Since then, I've had 5 others including a Himalayan, along with other cats as well, and am completely capitivated by the breed.

Approximately 2 1/2 years ago, our only child, Steve, Jr. passed away suddenly here at home. My husband and I have continuosly been devastated by the fact that we will never watch our son graduate college (as he was so close to doing at the time), marry, and give us the joy of knowing grandchildren.

At that time, we had just one persian in our family, a tortie named Buffy, who herself was almost 13 years old. We discussed getting another kitten, and I began watching the newspaper ads. Then I began searching the websites. Windy Valley Persians was the very first site I came to and when scrolling the gallery of kittens, I spotted the most adorable little dilute calico. I've always been partial to torties and calicos of all shades, but this one was really something special. I could see it in her eyes, and in her sweet expression.

I immediately emailed Kelley Phillips, and found I had made a true friend. We talked and emailed back and forth, and I eagerly awaited the day when I could go to the airport and pick up my new baby, "Mein Schatze" (which means, "my treasure" in German). Schatze has been with us for over 2 years now, and has brought back laughter and spark into our lives that we dreamed would never be possible. She is so highly intelligent, such a clown, and has such a sweet nature, I am constantly in awe of her.

Sadly, a few months ago, our older "Buffy" had to be put to rest. She was so much a center of our lives, and such a wonderful companion to Schatze, we all felt the deep loss.

So I checked on Kelley's website, and was once again, captivated by a tiny little brown patched Tabby female. This little girl had a tough start in life, but through Kelley's love, expertise, and extra tender loving care, "Tinkerbell" was ready to come join our family late October. We absolutely adore her, she is thriving, and is best of friends with Schatze. They are the center of my world.

Now, once again we await the arrival of our newest Windy Valley baby, another dilute calico, this one a doll face, which we have all ready named "Kushei" which is German for "Cuddles". I truly believe she is the perfect "balance" for us.

My husband and I have nothing but the highest praise for Windy Valley Persians and Kelley -- these kittens are the healthiest, strongest, most intelligent and loving cats that I've ever shared my home with.

Kelley is always available for any questions, or concerns, and puts my mind at ease when I worry over the little things. At our ages it's doubtful that we will bring any more cats into our home, but if that day every does come, we would never settle for less than a Windy Valley Baby. Kelley should rename it "Kelley's House of Little Blessings"!

If anyone at all would like to contact me regarding my experiences with these remarkable Persians, please don't hesitate to contact me at janhehir@optonline.net Keep bringing on the miracles!

Jan and Steve Hehir ~ Long Island, New York

Windy Valley Persians would like to say thank you to Jan and Steve Hehir for their touching letter. We are so incredibly honored to know that we have helped bring happiness to them.

Hi Kelley, Just wanted to write and tell you how happy we are with "Izzy B". She is such a sweetie, and entertains us daily with her spirited personality and loving purrs. The boys are crazy about her and just sit around and wait to see what she will do next. They have quickly adapted to having a princess around. She still sleeps with me every night, and follows me around (as a puppy would!!) all day long. Everyone laughs at how close to my side she stays. When she is not performing her very talented gymnastics (apparently she spent some time watching your daughters) she is happily snuggled up against me purring. We love her dearly, and have so much fun watching her antics. She has a wonderful personality, and doesn't meet anyone she doesn't like. I know she is really special to you and her mom as she is an "only kitten". Just wanted to let you know that she is continuing to bring happiness to our family and is our special little princess. Hope you and your family are enjoying your new home, and your new babies. We look at your website all the time. We love to see pictures of the new babies. We will send pictures of Miss Izzy very soon...

Blessings, The Thomason Family ~ Florida

P.S. I take her in the car with me all the time, and to my husband's office to visit his staff. They LOVE HER, and she loves them, and are always asking that I bring her to visit. They even bought her a play hut, toys, a pink food bowl that says, "princess" on it, and a special litter box, so that she can visit when I go in to help with the accounting from time to time. She is the boss when she goes to the office!! I find something new everyday to love about her. I still am amazed at how beautiful her markings are, and her sugar-tipped paws are adorable!!!

All of us at Windy Valley Persians would like to say thank you to the Thomason family for the beautiful letter and wish their family nothing but happiness.

Hi Kelley - Hope all is well with you. My two cats, Mr. Big and Scooter, just had their 2nd birthday and I thought you might get a kick out of seeing them now that they're grown up. What great cats they are!! Personalities plus and very smart - especially Scooter. They get along beautifully, too. Each night they chase each other around and play hide and seek. They're very well mannered and they're beautiful... Dale

Thank you Dale for taking the time to share with us what Mr. Big and Scooter look like, they sure are beautiful. We are so very happy to know how wonderful they are doing.

Dear Kelley,

Last month MoMo celebrated his 1st birthday! It's hard to believe we have had him for almost a year. Mo Mo is such a sweetheart and so beautiful. I call him beautiful so much that he answers to both names. Well I thought that you might like a photo of him today. We are still doing the things that you suggested for him. We just love that "World's Best Cat Litter", it actually works out to be cheaper than clay litter in the long run. Hope all is well with you and your family.

Take Care,
Janet

Thank you Janet for taking the time to let us know how well Mo Mo (Beautiful) is doing. We are always so happy to hear from our new parents. We wish you the best!

I will keep you updated on Callie every so often. Thanks again Pam

Thank you Pam for giving us the update on how happy Callie is with you. We wish you much happiness!
