Roly is a great example of the breed, with large boning, straight profile, well set ears, excellent coat texture and a magnificent expression. He also has a wonderful, gentle temperament which he passes on to all his kittens. He purrs non-stop and has a lovely 'chirp' which greets any visitor to our house.

Roland has sired several litters and his kittens have done well on the show bench, including his son Kjærligkatt Talen who was Overall Best NFO at the Viking Cat Club's NFO special in 2003. Roland outdid this though by winning the same title himself in 2005 at 7 years old.

Roland is due to retire soon.
