Maggie Mae - Silver Shaded
British Shorthairs are affectionate, and loving. Known as the 'teddy bear' cat, they have luxurious short, dense, plush coats that is unique in the cat world. Yet, wonderfully their coat require only minimal care.

Sweet Pickles and Riley
Brits have low to non-existent meows. Quietly they follow you around your home so curious in your activities. You can expect their active participation when you are reading, typing on the computer, or just watching TV. They love to sit next or near you, but generally are not lap-cats.

Brits are not destructive. They are very active as kittens and moderately active as adults. Cat toys, teasers, balls, feathers, laser lights, and nice sisal rope scratching post are some of the Brits favorite things.

Brits form strong bonds with members of the family's inner circle, including cats and dogs. They wisely appreciate the nature of younger children, and will conveniently stay out of reach, preferring the companionship of an older child or adult.

Usually Brits will put into the relationship, the same amount you do. They are not over demanding for attention, but will respond in kind if you like a good deal of attention.

Brits are simply Wonderful
So cute & adorable.
As retirees we devote our time and energy giving each of our Brits the tender loving care they deserve.
Our kittens are truly brought up 'under foot'. Each kitten will have all their kitten shots and are spayed/neutered before going to their new home. Kittens must be at least 16 weeks old before they are mature enough to leave their mom and litter mates.
All of our kittens are registered with the Cat Fanciers Association (CFA), and/or The International Cat Association (TICA).
