Please note: These cats are not currently available unless marked as available!
These are our Queens and Kings that will be retired sometime in the near future or that have already found their forever home. This page is to show the breeders we will not be keeping long-term in our cattery, but that they may still have kittens in our cattery.
Each Retired Breeder is priced according to age, quality, and temperament.
I do not keep a waitlist for retired breeders, and do not have a set timeframe for when they will be retired. When time comes to retire them, I will post them as available. They are on a first come, first serve basis, I don't hold retiring breeders until a deposit is made.
***Disclaimer: All of my retiring breeders I retain full breeding rights on until the day they are no longer in my care. This may mean that a retiring King, sold or not, may have expecting litters still coming in my cattery, or a Queen may have kittens still in my cattery. As long as they are in my cattery - I retain the right to breed them, regardless if they have been sold or not.
Retiring Breeders do not come with a health guarantee. I cannot guarantee the long-term health or offer replacements on retired breeders. If having a health guarantee is important to you, you will want to get a kitten and not a retired breeder. Retiring Breeders will be, to my knowledge, healthy and ready to live out the rest of their days as a forever pet.

We kept Bacardi back for our breeding program, but just recently got back her genetic testing and discovered that she has blood type B. That means nothing for being a pet, but for a breeder - since my males are all A or AB, her blood antibodies would attack and kill her kittens if they nurse on her. It's do-able, I've done it before, you just have to remove the kittens for 24 hours from her straight after birth, but it creates more stress and work and I'd just rather not having any B blood type Queens in my cattery. So because of this, we are retiring her. She just turned 1 year old in April. She is scheduled for spay on November 4th and will be able to leave to her new home after that.
Retiring Price: $1,200
