Biography

Hunley, in the household.

Imported from established Russian European lines, Hunley carries the structural traits we look for in every queen at Ironmane Coons: heavy bone, a long profound muzzle, and the lynx-tip ears that earn the breed its 'small lynx' reputation.

She is N/N cleared for HCM, SMA, and PKDef. Her kittens — depending on pairing — can express silver tabby, black silver, smoke, and solid color patterns.
