Greygables Diane DuBois
Beautiful DeeDee arrived with us in September 2019. She is a very beautiful silver lady with a very mild and sweet temperament. She is the mother of our L-litter and Q-litter.

DeeDee er vår vakre sølvjente. Hun har utviklet seg utrolig fint og og planen har vært å bruke henne på våre egne gutter. Hun har sterk benstamme, nydelig sølv og slående vakre øyne. Øyenfargen har utviklet seg fra ravfarget da hun var liten til vakker grønn tre år gammel. DeeDee er blitt mor til to kull: L-kullet ble født 30. mars 2021 og Q-kull født 3. august 2024. Hun er nå kastrert, og vi ser etter det perfekte hjem for henne.

Background
DeeDee is from Greygables Maine Coon cattery, where Sibylle is now retired from breeding. DeeDee is one of the very the last breeding cats from the Greygables cattery. Sibylle and Greygables have been essential for our breeding program from our first and oldest breeding female Olenna, and we are forever grateful to be able to continue working with the Greygables lines.
DeeDee’s sire Nathan also has lines back to Manitou’s early lines from my breeder friend Mia Söderberg, who helped me start my breeding programme with stud service and lots of advice. DeeDee’s dam is from Nayomi Franken’s Tabula Rasa lines based on US show lines with good type, size and health screening.
Name
Diane is a French variant of Diana, the Greek goddess for hunting. DuBois means “from the forest” in French, and DeeDees name points to a hunter; we will see if she lives up to her name.
