Frequently Asked Questions.

These are some frequently asked questions by other somali cat lovers like you

Why do you not allow visits to your cattery/home??

We restrict casual visits to cats and families due to health and safety concerns, especially for young kittens, who are susceptible to germs and have not fully developed immune systems... Read more

How much do your kittens cost and what is included in the price? ?

Our feline cost fee is $1600, which includes tax, microchip, health guarantee, contract, lifetime breeder support, vaccinations, spay/neuter, registration, veterinary care, kitten welcome home kit, and other goodies.

Why are the kittens spayed or neutered before going home??

We like to manage their recovery. We are able to monitor the kittens 24/7 and know the warning signs to look for during the recovery process.
--Spaying or neutering at an early age is easier on a young kitten than it is on an older cat. Young kittens have a thinner layer of fat on the abdomen than older kittens/cats which makes the surgery itself quicker/easier and the incision healing time faster (thus decreasing the chance of infection). Kittens shed anesthesia much quicker than adult cats. Within 15 minutes after the surgery young kittens are typically awake and starting to play. Older cats take longer to arouse and often require much stronger pain medication. Young kittens are very resilient and heal quickly. Within a day, kittens are completely back to normal, playing, eating and unfazed by the surgery. The hardest part is trying to make them take it easy.
--Spaying or neutering early eliminates the risk of a kitten developing a bad habit of spraying. Once kittens reach 5-6 months old they enter puberty if not spayed/neutered and often spray to mark their territory as a result.(both males and females will do this) Sometimes this habit is impossible to break. When kittens are spayed or neutered early they never experience the hormones that drive the need to mark their territory.
--Decreases the chance that our kittens end up in the wrong hands. Having our kittens spayed or neutered prior to leaving our home decreases the chance that our kittens end up in the wrong hands. We would never want our babies to be a part of a kitten mill or bred unethically. We want our kittens to go to forever, loving, pet homes and we feel that early spay/neuter gives them the best chance at obtaining this.

What is the best process to communicate with you?

I prefer email contact so that all communication has a written record of what is said and agreed upon. It eliminates any confusion about the Buyer/Seller expectations and responsibilities...Thanks

Can I get a discount?

If you purchase two kittens from us at the same time and they fly on the same flight, then we are able to offer you a discount off the total price that ranges from around $300 to $500 USD. This price reduction is not applicable to all of the kittens. For further information, kindly get in touch with us.

Do you ship your kittens?

Yes. We ship kittens on any airline that keeps animals in a climate-controlled environment at all times. Kittens are expected to arrive the same day they are shipped. On Friday mornings, we usually ship kittens. Kittens usually arrive the same day, between early afternoon and late evening. We will make a schedule for you. You will not need to bring a carrier because your kitten will arrive in one. You must present identification at the time of pick-up from the airline.

Our Breeding Ethics

Our breeding effort is motivated by the goals of improving and preserving the breed. Our actions have an impact on the health of next generations, the lives of kittens, and the sentiments of the families that adopt them. We work hard to be the best possible in terms of temperament, vigor, and health.When we are no longer breeding in years, we hope that our names will be known as breeders who not only showed extraordinary love to families all over the world, but also improved the breed overall.
