Here we are with Izzy on the old cartwheel seat in Cubert on our way to Polly Joke and Holywell Bay recently. |
We are Cynthia and Terry Wiltshire, two 'emmets' enjoying living here in Cornwall. We breed colourpoint persians in a wide variety of 'point' colours (both solid and tabby), including seal, chocolate, red, cream, lilac, seal-tortie, chocolate-tortie, blue-cream, and others, in all some twenty variations. All our persians are blue-eyed. We usually name our cats (those who live here) after trees, plants and flowers.
We live in a small ex-tin-mining hamlet called Treskillard which is situated in the Red River valley behind Carn Brea, a prominent feature on the spine of West Cornwall and on your left as you pass along the A30 from Redruth towards the West.
