Information about kittens and kitten placement.
- PLEASE READ FIRST!
- Breeding every female cat a t AttyKats for Spring kittens to catch up on deposit reservation list. As of February 18, 2023, Fairy and Franny are confirmed pregnant and waiting on four more to be confirmed pregnant. Kittens are definitely coming ! Hoping for 4-8 litters by April/May. We anticipate that females will be available in April/May without a wait and we will accept deposits on females OR MALES.
- Rehoming Fee -Female kittens are $3500 and males are $4000 unless you placed a deposit prior to Janaury 1, 2023. Costs are increasing due to testing costs, food costs, travel costs, and vet costs tripling thanks to COVID and shortages.
- High Smoke and High Silver Kittens are a completely separate breeding program and will be offered at a flat fee of $5500. We expect to have availability with NO WAIT for these kittens later in the year when they are old enough to breed.
- Locked in Fee -If you placed your deposit prior to 1/1/23, your price is locked in at the kitten cost on the date of your deposit. Hoping next litters will be full of males.
- BREEDERS' OPTION. I have the right to place a kitten out of order. I have the right to place a kitten with breeding rights or without breeding rights. I have the right to retain any of my kittens. As a responsible breeder, from time to time, circumstances come up that are out of the ordinary. I make accommodations in those circumstances. I have first pick of all kittens. I rarely keep a kitten. I have only kept 4 in the last 10 years. However, several of my adult breeding cats are nearing retirement age, so I will be holding back a few OPTION kittens to consider adding to my breeding program. If I post a kitten with the word OPTION, it means I am holding onto the kitten to see if I may want to keep it for my breeding program. Option kittens that I do not select are released by me after I decide whether I want to keep them, usually around 16 weeks. Option kittens may be offered at higher pricing than other kittens, even though they are a little older because I found them to be uniquely exceptional. They will be posted when available. Option Kittens are always the very best of the best and worth the wait.
- For those of you with DEPOSIT RESERVATIONS, when I have kittens, the matching process does not start until kittens are 6-8 weeks old and the process is time consuming- I take 30 photos of each kitten and then choose the best three photos to post. Kittens do not pose and are HARD to take photos of. It requires time and patience to get good photos so you can see the personalities in the photos. I don't post all kittens. I know, based on my LIST, what people want and I may directly text photos to the next person on the list of a kitten I know he or she would want.
- Kittens- I HOPE- are coming - I have 6 girls in with the boys and I am hoping that they all get pregnant and we have lots of kittens by April/May. Always harder to get girls pregnant in the winter time. Instinctively they know it is winter....even though it is a toasty 72 degrees inside. Will post pregnant moms when pregnancies are confirmed on the Home Page.
