Examples
of My Work
Before
you choose a website designer you should take a look at other
websites they have created to see if you like their style.
As a cat breeder, pay special attention to the quality of
the photographs of the cats. Is the text well written? Are
there coordinated pedigrees that are easy to read? Are the
designs unusual without being cliché? Are the websites
unique - or are they similar to a lot of other cattery websites
you have seen?
My
portfolio is divided into several categories for your convenience.
You can scroll down this page or click on the underlined title
to see a collection of my favorite website designs.
- My
Most Recent Design: For frequent visitors, I have
placed my most recent design first so you can see the latest
creation.
- Cattery
Websites: I specialize in cattery websites, each
unique and custom designed.
- Business
Websites: I also lend my expertise to the creation
of websites to promote business and commercial ventures.
- Magazine-Style
Websites: Ezines and information-oriented websites
You will
also want to take a look at some of the special added touches
I can do to enhance your cattery website and make it stand
heads (and tails) above the crowd. These examples will each
open in a new window. Just close the window to return to this
page.
- Banners
: Your
banner is like a calling card. It should be eye-catching
to attract new visitors. Need a new banner? I can create
one that compliments your website look.
- Splash
Pages : The
splash page is the first page a visitor sees. It is the
welcome mat to your website.
- Custom
Pedigrees : Your
pedigrees should co-ordinate with your website design.
- Photo
Preparation : An untouched photo must be
properly cropped, sized, sharpened and color corrected to look its
best.
- Photo
Frames & Effects : There are countless
options for how your photos can be framed and presented.
- Cattery
Ads :
Whether you need an advertisement for the internet or for
a print publication, I can create the perfect ad for your
needs.

Briar-Mar Manx
The Briar-Mar cattery of Omar Gonzalez and CFA judge Gary Veach have been breeding national-winning cats for decades. When I was approached to redesign their website, it was an honor to showcase their stunning Manx. An elegant color scheme of black and gold was selected as the starting point for this sophisticated design featuring "Manny", CFA's Cat of The Year for 2016.

Cattery
Websites
Some
of these cattery websites are small. Some are large. All
have been custom designed to the breeder's wishes.
Each site
was custom designed and created to suit the tastes of the
particular client. The style may or may not appeal to you,
but you can evaluate the quality of the work, images and graphics, and the overall impact each site has.
