MORE KITTEN INFO & KITTEN NURSERY VIDEO

I have a kitten nursery in my house. This provides the kittens with a safe space and helps them develop good litter box habits. This also provides my Mom's a private area with their kittens and reduces stress. The Moms can jump in and out of the area as they wish. Our kittens always get plenty of playtime outside of the nursery space and daily handling.

Payment Options: Personal or Cashiers Check (only in advance of pick-up), Paypal or Credit Card or Cash.  Understand that all reputable breeders are investing into their cats and kittens, and breeding responsibly is expensive and time-consuming, and a reputable breeders price will reflect their investment, time, and overhead.


Kitten Colors Expected Based on my Parents Coloring

  • Black Smoke, male and female (black or dark grey with a silver undercoat).
  • Black Tabby, male and female (black tabby markings with a brown background).
  • Silver Tabby, male and female (silver coat with black tabby markings).
  • Black, male and female.
  • Red Tabby, male only (red stripes with red roots).
  • Red Smoke Tabby, male only (red tabby markings and a silver undercoat).
  • Blacktorbie, female only (black coat with random patches of red and cream).
  • Blacktorbie Smoke, female only (black coat with random patches of red and cream with a silver undercoat).

FYI: The color of a kitten is based on the color of the parents only. The Queens color determines the color of male kittens. The Queen and Stud's coloring determines the color of the female kittens. This is because, the color gene is on the X chromosome only with cats.

Smoke aka Silver, is an influencer color gene, in-addition to the base color. So Black Smoke means Black Silver, a Black cat with a Silver undercoat. Same for a Red Smoke, Blacktortie Smoke and etc. All have a Silver undercoat.

Tabby is not a color or a breed of cat, tabby is a marking on a base color. There are different tabby markings too. Many types of cats come with tabby markings. Well marked tabby's regardless of breed or non-breed have a 'M' marked forehead. This is NOT an exclusive marking for Maine Coons only. Maine Coon, stands for the state of Maine.

Ricky, solid Black (pictured at 10 months). Thor, Silver tabby (pictured at 5 months old). Moon, Red Smoke tabby pictured at 7 months). These are picture updates from their families, these Maine Coons are not available.
