Dixie and Monet just welcomed six little darlings!
We have three deposits already but won’t be sure of gender or points until next month.
We have raised the price to $950 (except for those with a previous deposit). We had a lot of vet expenses due to the kitten with asthma, retiring Layla, getting the past few litters all vet checked and vaccinated, and taking care of the bills of a kitten that got sick in her new home (she’s fine now!)
We have never had a kitten that got sick after being placed, and already had a kitten with wheezing for the first time ever, so we were very worried about all our kitties. We paid for extensive testing and X-Rays, and everything for both kitties came out negative. I requested COVID testing and the vets laughed at me. Turned out some other cats in NYC subsequently tested positive. I have to wonder whether my cats could’ve had Corona even if the humans were asymptomatic.
After a few days the kitten that was rehomed in Boston fully recovered and the little wheezing girl is barely making any breathing sounds in her new home. I feel like the kittens picked up a bug by being taken to the vet to get their immunizations. I never had any trouble until I started taking the kittens in to be vet checked, so I won be taking this new litter any where. If people aren’t willing to take the kittens in to a vet themselves, then they can get a kitten elsewhere.
Someone just emailed me to ask - well it was more of a demand to know - what they were “getting” for that price. This is someone that is trying to get into the breeding business but no one will sell to her. Including me. If you’re a responsible and established breeder, we can talk. If you think you’re doing me a favor by contacting me, you can step. Good luck finding another breeder willing to sell you breeding rights of a cat of comparable quality! I don’t do business with humans who themselves have no breeding. Good manners are essential! The funny thing is that she was balking at the listed price for a pet. I didn’t bother to tell her breeding rights aren’t included in that price.
The price of the kitten ensures that you have a high quality pet that meets breed standards and exceeds expectations for personality, temperament and intelligence. The health guarantee gives you peace of mind that you have a kitten free of disease, vermin and congenital conditions. I would never sell a kitten with issues without full disclosure, and I certainly take care of anything latent that could manifest later.
