I spend a lifetime learning pedigrees, going over cats, talking and learning from those in my breed and those outside it. I raise each litter as if I gave birth to them and spend an equal amount of time finding them loving forever homes.

I only put kittens on this planet that I think will be the healthiest (mentally and physically) and nicest examples of their breed. I also choose to de-sex every cat and kitten that leaves my home to go and live with a non-registered breeder.

I support each family who chooses one of my cats or kittens and let them know they are now a part of our extended family. I am there if one needs to come back and will aggressively pursue the return of one of my cats if it’s in the wrong place. I support my breed in rescue and education.

I hold them when they arrive and leave this world, not only my own, but my brethren in the fancy. I share my knowledge, show and socialize my cats so that they will be the advertisement for my dedication.

I don’t keep track of the money and time I put into my love of cats, it would not be a true measure of how I feel.

I support my friends in the fancy, because it takes a village sometimes and only WE know how things are for us.

The price I charge for my kittens is never profit, but investment in the next generation.
I will not be ashamed of who I am, I work hard at being a good cat person and encouraging others to be the same.

I am a breeder and I am proud of it.
If we don’t support each other – we are doomed as a fancy.
