Our standards & practices
Health testing & screening
Question. Do you health test in accordance with the current standards and recommended guidelines for your breed? Can you demonstrate your knowledge of any required DNA or other health related test results concerning your breed (if applicable).
Answer. Yes.I test all of my breeding queens and studs for HCM and PKD, I know that one gene for HCM does not produce HCM but I don’t breed with carriers. The other test is for blood group and I only have non B breeders. I also test with a PCR test for any kittens being sold to other registered breeders. I export internationally with all those tests done also.
Preparation & socialisation
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?
Answer. Yes.My kittens are raised in my home in a specialised kitten room. They go home with a kitten care sheet explaining everything for them but I tell them that I am there for them for the life of their kitty.
Placement & matching
