Frequently Asked Questions
Why do you breed Siamese & Orientals?
I have a life long passion and love of Siamese and Orientals, they are fantastic companions, incredibly intelligent and loving. My first Siamese was called 'Whinge-a-lot' a chocolate point girl, aptly named as she was very talkative, I remember her waiting for me at the door when I would get home from School, I was devastated when I lost her to mammary cancer, she was only nine years old.
Do your cats go outside?
My cats go out in an enclosed run during the day when the weather permits, our cattery is purpose built, and is fully heated. Visiting queens to Harvey have separate queens quarters.
Do you show your cats?
We have been showing cats for a number of years, I tend to stay loacally within 2 hours travelling of home.

How much are your kittens?
Our kittens prices reflect the quality of our babies, and the amount of time and devotion spent in raising them. Males and females are priced the same regardless if they are for pet or show.
Can I let my kitten outside?
Whilst we do not advise on letting a valuable pedigree cat outside, we do appreciate that everyone has different preferences. Cats can live a very happy life as an indoor cat when given enough attention and stimulation. Our cats have access to an all weather outside run, but much prefer to stay indoors when the weather isn't as nice. We do not ask you to sign a contract stating that you won't let your kitten outside ever, but ask that you are sensible about allowing out doors access.
Can I show my kitten?
We don't insist that you show our kittens, we prefer that our kittens go to loving forever homes as spoilt family pets. We will try to advise you on the show quality of our kittens and their potential on the show bench, unfortunately we cannot guarantee that they will have show success, but you are more than welcome to give it a go.

No kitten leaves us until they are at least 13 weeks old, or 7 days after the second set of vaccinations.
Can I have a discount if I buy two kittens?
Yes, we are happy to give a discount for two kittens purchased from the same litter.
Will my kitten come with Vaccinations?
