Question. Do you ensure that your kittens are appropriately socialised? Please provide details about how you raise your kittens to ensure that their environmental and social needs are met, that they are suitable as pets. And, do you ensure that the new family understands and is equipped to continue this socialisation?

Placement & matching
Question. Is ensuring that your kittens go to the right home a high priority? How do you ensure that the kitten will be a good fit, and be well cared for in its new home? Do you have a verbal or personal interview?
Answer. Yes.First and foremost potential buyers that simple “ask How much?” are never responded to.
I seek people, who without asking give me a clear picture of what they are looking for what they are offering housing arrangements experience or non experience with cats there expectations regarding an animal that will be loved family member.. thes are always met with further discussions either by phone and in some instances with a visit
Question. What written information about the conditions of sale, warranty, and information concerning the care and maintenance of the breed do you provide?
Answer. Yes.No written warranty as such is provided, however if any of my adopting families had an issue pertaining to health, I’d support them in a way I felt was in feeling with an ethical breeder.
My buyers are given clear instructions on eye care what and how to use and frequency together with grooming and bathing the exotic coat
Ongoing support
Question. Do you offer ongoing support? For example: Help with introducing a kitten to other animals; help with any health or behavioural problems that might occur.
Answer. Yes.A number of years ago and after trying so many different plans of attack I took back a yiur male kitten who was peeing everywhere. I later learned that the owner suffered ADHD with suicide tendencies. It was quite sad by cleary the kitten was liv8ng in a toxic environment . Once he returned ro me it took some time to resettle him which happened over fairly long time.abut he slowly improved.
I’ve never had any new owner mention issuS with settling or introducing a new kitten however I always advise that slow introductions are paramount and step them trough the process if needed.yo my knowledge new introductions have always gone very well.
Question. In the long term, do you assist with re-homing a kitten or cat if for some reason the new family are unable to care for it?
Answer. Yes.With rhr exception of the one detailed above ..I’d have no hesitation helping if it was required.. I bred the. Therefore they are a lifelong responsibility I believe
