Kittens will be ready to leave us between 13-14  weeks of age.

Kitten contract

 All kittens are sold with a contract, please do not enquire about a kitten if you are not prepared to sign whichever version of the contract has been agreed e.g. pet, breeding/show potential. Unfortunately although we do vet prospective owners thoroughly occasionally problems do arise and the contract helps to resolve these problems as they spell out both our postion and that of a prosepctive owner.

 Homing kittens is the hardest part of breeding, all the time, effort and planning  (sometimes several years) the happiness and sometimes heartache culminate in sending that precious little bundle out your door. Trusting complete strangers is often difficult  (especially when trust has been misplaced before) so please understand the need for these contracts even if their only purpose is (for the vast majority of kittens) to reassure a concerned breeder that they have done everything possible to ensure a happy life for another bundle of fluff.

Breeding and showing cats is our hobby, however it is a very costly procedure and sales of kittens we do not wish to keep ourselves only goes partway towards paying for this hobby. It is in no way a business as a profit is neither intended, or indeed ever obtained! If you wish to see the breakdown of cost involved please ask, it is a sobering list for anyone thinking cat breeding is an easy money maker. In addition to the financial costs, the stress and time taken to find suitable homes, worries over labouring queens in the middle of the night and hand feeding a frail kitten every 2 hrs makes you wonder why we do it.
