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 Merilyn 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 before she's had a litter. She just turned 1 year old. I do need to update her photos, I'll try to get some new ones up this week. She obviously looks different than her baby photos listed.

We kept Penelope 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 before she's had a litter. She just turned 1 year old in June and has never had a litter.
She is such a beautiful sweet girl, but she does have bowel issues. Penelope is discounted because she seems to have, what I believe, is a food intolerance. We have done multiple fecal PCRs on her and all have came back clear and she still struggles with soft stool. I believe she may be allergic to chicken and might require a specialized digestive diet that has a single protein that is not chicken.
Retiring Price: $500

We kept Poppy for our breeding program. She recently had her first litter, and her litter had some birth defects (kittens born with half tails). Because of the possibility that this could be a genetic component, we are retiring her. Sher herself does not have any defects. She just turned 1 year old in July. She is scheduled for spay on November 4th and will be able to leave to her new home after that.

We imported Brooklyn from Russia. She is a rare Smoke Phoenix. She's a sweet girl, but we are cutting back on our breeding Queens and decided not to continue her color in our program. She is scheduled for spay on November 4th and will be able to leave to her new home after that.
