SCOOT ANDRESEN – GCCFSA Known widely as “Scoot”. I grew up in the far north of New Zealand, and always had a passion for animals, cats In particular. I moved to Alice Springs in 1990 and became involved in the cat fancy when I met my wife Liz who bred Siamese/Orientals at the time. Eventually I commenced training in Group II joining the Australian Cat Federation panel in 2005 and extended to All Shorthair in 2009. I am now an All Breeds Judge. I have judged in most states of Australia, and, overseas in New Zealand and China. I have recently moved to Adelaide South Australia and affiliated with the Governing Council of the Cat Fancy South Australia.

In 1981 I commenced my judges training in Group 2 (Siamese/Oriental) I continued on to complete my Group 3 & then the longhair in 2000 making me an All Breeds ACF Judge. I have judged in most States & Territories in Australia. My first overseas judging assignment was in Kuala Lumpur in 2001 and then New Zealand in 2004 & 2005 & again in 2015 & 2016.

I have over the past 39 years bred Siamese/Oriental, , , Abyssinian and currently Burmese with my husband Scoot.
