About Our Kittens

● Kitten will be FIV/FELV negative (all our adults are)
● Parents are echocardiogramed clear of HCM (starting at 1-2 yrs of age - meaning they are clear of HCM at the time of the ultrasound - there is no guarantee that they won't come down with HCM in the future)

Pet Kitten Inquiries
● We do not ship pet kittens, NO exceptions.
If you see a kitten on the site you like and want us to hold it for you we require a $100 deposit. (Reason: we have held kittens in the past and people purchased kittens elsewhere and in the meantime we have turned homes away for that kitten).
● We do not offer cattery tours. This is our home and our hobby.  When serious buyers come to look at kittens at approximately 12 wks of age and older they will have a chance to meet us and the cats at that time.
● We do not keep a waiting list.
● We do not allow our kittens to be declawed or let outdoors.  Check the links below to find out why:

  Breeder/Show Kitten Inquiries
● We occasionally sell show or breeder kittens to established catteries only. Must have 3 breeder references, test for HCM via ultrasound, breeding cats must not be kept caged and must live in your household as part of the family.  We may also request images of your home and cattery.
● We rarely sell overseas.

NOTE:  We have the option to keep a kitten who already has a deposit on it if we feel the kitten is needed in our show/breeding program. While this doesn't happen often sometimes we have to do this to keep a certain pedigree or top show cat. Your deposit will either be refunded or put towards the next available kitten of your choice.


Available Young Adults

It is not easy for us to let these kitties go as we are very attached to them and love them very much!! But it does become necessary for us to place some of our adults/retirees into loving homes where they can become the center of attention and a wonderful, special companion.  Many times these cats have also been show cats.

All of our retirees are placed with a sales contract and health guarantee similar to the one we use for the kittens. All retirees are already spayed or neutered, are current on their vaccines so you get a nice young adult for a very reasonable price. All retired adults are not to be declawed or allowed outdoors. We expect to receive regular updates on them also and would appreciate pictures from time to time.

 

FALCON & PATRIOT

Falcon & Patriot are two awesome littermates, we HATE to let them go but we are trying to downsize.  They are just awesome in every way, they would do great in any home, are love bugs, no health problems and are spayed & neutered.  Available to the right home only and we want them to go as a pair.  $500 as a pair.  DOB: 2/12/07

 


TNT

TNT is one of the most affectionate, happy, sweetest cats we have ever had.  He is a handsome 1 year old brown tabby/white neutered male.  He is somewhat of a special needs cat as when he was young he caught a bad cold (URI) and has a chronic runny/stuffy nose with sneezing.  He is on no meds but will need his face cleaned at times.  Other than that his health is great.  We know he's not a 'perfect' cat because of this but we still hope he can find a lifetime loving pet home who will give him the attention and life he wants in a smaller cat household.  Email us for more info on TNT.

CHLOE

Chloe is a 1 year old spayed brown tabby female.  She is very outgoing and sweet and loves attention. She is another special needs young cat. She has a chronic runny eye which flares up at times and she has very tiny cataracts (unnoticeable to the human eye).  We had her examined by an ophthalmologist and she said this does not affect her sight and she thinks it's highly unlikely they will ever progress into anything larger.  Email us for more info on Chloe.
