Kitten Selection & Reservations:

• When it is your turn to select a kitten, you will be contacted and given the opportunity to reserve your kitten.

• A $600 non-refundable reservation deposit is required to reserve your selected kitten.

• If your selected kitten has a premium price (such as a Smoke), the premium amount is also due at the time of reservation.

• Families who joined the waitlist before July 11, 2026, paid the previous $100 waitlist fee. Their reservation deposit will therefore be $700 instead of $600 so that all families have the same remaining balance due at pickup.

• Kitten selection typically occurs when our kittens are approximately 5 weeks of age.

• Families are invited to select their kittens in the order they joined the waitlist.

• If a family does not respond within 2 days of being contacted, the opportunity to select a kitten will be offered to the next family on the waitlist.

• If you choose to pass on a litter and wait for the next one, you will maintain your place on the waitlist.

Home Visits:

• To protect the health and safety of our kittens, we do not allow visits to our home or cattery, especially while we have unvaccinated litters.

• We also do not offer visits for allergy testing. If you're concerned about allergies, we recommend seeing an allergist. Testing with unneutered breeding cats may not reflect typical reactions to a sterilized kitten.

Thank you for understanding and helping us keep our kittens safe!
