Deposits
Deposits are in the amount of $200. Deposits are non-refundable, unless under extenuating circumstances. Deposits may be transferred to a different kitten/cat. Deposits are taken once kittens are born to place a hold on a kitten so it will not be made available to anyone else. Your deposit can be for a particular kitten or just a kitten in general from the litter.  Please note, I do not encourage buying two kittens from the same litter; littermates have a tendency to bond very strongly to each other instead of to members of their new family.  If you decide two kittens from the same litter are right for you a $50 discount is given per kitten for multiple kittens purchased.  Deposits are accepted in the form of cash, money order, personal checks or PayPal.  Final payment due the day your kitten goes home.  Final payments are accepted in the form of cash, money order, or PayPal.  NO personal checks accepted for final payments.

When paying by PayPal please add the 3% processing fee charged by PayPal
$200 deposit + 3% fee($6.00)= $206  $450 final payment + 3% fee($13.50)=$463.50

Prices
Pet Quality. A pet quality kitten is the perfect new addition to a family. They may have slight imperfections to keep them from the show ring but they have all the "purrsonality" of a perfect pet. Pet quality Ragdolls start at $650. Pet quality Devon Rex start at $750.

Show Quality. A show quality kitten has all the aspects of a #1 show cat. Perfect confirmation, color, and superior temperament. Show quality kittens start at $850. Pet and show quality kittens are sold with a limited registration. Meaning they are already spayed or neutered.

Breeding Quality. Please note, at this time I only sell breeder cats to established catteries or individuals new to breeding who have a mentor with an established cattery.  Anyone I sell a breeder cat to must share my ideals and goals for the breeds I work with.

Shipping
Shipping is available within the U.S. Shipping costs are between $200-$300. These prices include a shipping crate and a travel/health certificate.  When the service is available kittens are shipped door to door through a pet transport company.  Sometimes due to the transport schedule this option may not be available, if so your kitten can travel on an airline, weather permitting of course.

Age
I encourage the mother/kitten bond until I feel each kitten establishes his own independence.  Therefore,  kittens generally leave the cattery at 12-14 weeks when their new owners are picking them up. If a kitten is to be shipped it will go home at 16-20 weeks. This is only necessary for the safety of the kitten. An older kitten makes for a better "traveling passenger". Why can't my kitten come home any earlier?
