We usually have kittens for sale throughout the year and sell to indoor homes only and expect our pet quality kittens to be altered. They are being sold to be companions and not for making babies. Our kittens are handled frequently while they are young, making them more amenable to handling as they age. Remember, Americans are "be with me kitties", not lap kitties that want to be confined by you. We try to produce only classic silver tabbies, but because
of recessive genes, we do occasionally have classic blue tabbies
and classic brown tabbies. Ideally we breed our queens only once
per year, having had one of our males vasectomized, so that he
can service the females and take them out of season. Serviced
females do not cycle continuously, lose weight, call or begin
to spray. Yes, females who are allowed to cycle repeatedly can
and do spray, although the urine odor is not there. Because we
start our kitten shots at 6 weeks we invite prospective parents
to the house after the first shot in the order that we receive
their reservation. To make a reservation we require a $50.00
check which we hold until the prospective parents decide if they
like the offered kitten(s) or not. If they like the kitten, then
the deposit is banked and arrangements are made for the kitten
to be picked up at about 12 to 13 weeks and has had its final
kitten shot. If the prospective parent does not like what is
offered, then their check is returned or can be kept for a later
litter, whichever they decide. |
