Rindr’s namesake is a Jotun or maybe a Princess of the East.

Beyla at LH SLH & AB Show 2 

 

Beyla is named after Beyla (Old Norse: [ˈbœylɑ]) is one of Freyja’s servants along with her husband, Byggvir, in Norse mythology. Beyla is mentioned in stanzas 55, and 66, and the prose introduction to the Poetic Edda poem Lokasenna. Since this is the only mention of Beyla, scholars have turned to the etymology of Beyla’s name for additional information about her.[ However, the meaning of her name is unclear and her name has been proposed as related to “cow,” “bean,” or “bee.”  
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

On 22/04/2022 Beyla presented us with a litter of 6 kittens, 1 of which was a beautiful market Ocicat classic who we named Thorsoak Magni-Biornsson.

We hope that Magni will, as they say, “sire many strong sons and beautiful daughters”

GCCF Grand Champion Ocicat Stars Queen’s Sol (Sól)

We thank Sylvia and Helmut Hoyk of Ocicat Stars, for allowing us to have this lovely girl.

Sól arrived at Thor’s Oak on November 26th November 2021

Sól is named after the Norse goddess of the Sun. During Ragnarok, which in Norse mythology is the end of the world, Sol will finally be swallowed by the wolf, Skoll, along with the sun, and the Earth will submerge into the waters.
Conversely, at Thorsoak we are hoping Sol is part of a continuing strengthening of the world of Ocicats
