Briar-Mar is a small cattery located in Maywood, New Jersey. It is owned by Gary L. Veach and Omar F. Gonzalez. Gary is an allbreed judge for CFA (The Cat Fanciers' Association), having judged in the U.S. and Canada as well as abroad. He was recently elected to the CFA Board of Directors as a Director-at-Large. Omar has been breeding and showing cats since the age of thirteen. Twenty six years later, he has exhibited and/or bred ten Top Twenty CFA national winners in three different breeds. Along with those are numerous National Best of Breed awards as well.

We produce very few litters a year, showing that it is quality, not quantity, that counts.

The next few pages are of our award winning Persians as well as a few of our shorthair winners from past years. We hope that you will enjoy them as much as we do.

In addition to our cats, we have taken on the challenge of breeding and showing show quality Pekingese. We have added a new page to our web site dedicated to our latest venture. We hope you will enjoy them as well.
