Kalicalanin's breeding

The first two Norwegian Forest Cats – Lotta and Ronja – 
joined our family in the early autumn year 2004. Having had 
cats in our family earlier, we were already quite accustomed 
to have them as family members.

After getting acquainted with these charming and intelligent 
cats, we were interested to learn more about Norwegian Forest
Cats. Cat exhibitions increased our knowledge and experiences 
giving us deeper understanding about the world and nature of 
these cats.

We made the decision to apply for our own breeding name in 
the beginning of the year 2006. The name “Kalicalanin” was 
confirmed by FIFE in August 2006. 

Kalicalani means “the scent of the rambling rose” in alaskan 
indian language. Kalicalani Kila was also the name of our 
Finnish Lappland Dog, with whom our new family members lived 
together for the first two years.

Our cats are family members. Also all our kittens will grow up
as a part of our every day life and as such they will have lots 
of attention and care. Our aim is to bring them up to be healthy 
and socially active cats.

Our cats live mostly indoors, but they have a garden house, where
 they can go out to get some fresh air and enjoy the sun in the 
summer time. 

As a breeder we are members of Keski-Suomen rotukissayhdistys, 
InCat -association and Norwegian Forest Cat -association.
