My name is Jessica and I live together with Mattias in Huddinge, just about 20 kilometers south of Stockholm. Together we have two children. Tilde was born in january 2005 and Simon was born in august 2008. I work as a nurse at Region Animalhospital Bagarmossen and Mattias works as an surveyengineer at Svenska Mätcenter. Me and Mattias met eachother through our common hobby, the dogs. We were both involved in the same breed, Irish Red Setter, and trained and competed a lot together. Mostly in obedience but also showing. One thing led to another and a few years later we moved in to a house together. Throughout my work I meet lots of cats of different breeds. But no other breed has ever fascinated me as the Cornish Rex. I promised myself that if the right opportunity came along I would have a Cornish some day. The offer came up in the summer of -99. Ida, 1 1/2 year, was in a need of a new home. She moved in with us and we new right away that this was the right decision. Ida is very good representant for the breed in every way. The interest for breeding and showing has been with us for a long time, first with the dogs and later on with the cats. Ida gave us the opportunity to enter the catworld. We started showing Ida and it all went better than expected. On top of that it showed out that Ida got a very nice pedigree. After some good advice from friends we went on and became breeders. Although in a small scale.

In that time we already had a registrated kennelname for our Irish Setters - NUTMEG. Nutmeg is a spice with a chestnut colour, the same colour as the Irish Setter. When we applied for our catteryname there was no doubt that Nutmeg was the obvious choice.
