Our small in-home cattery, located in north-central Ohio, is the place to be if you're looking for a modern Oriental Shorthair or a charming Siamese.

We are passionate about breeding top-quality cats that are both beautiful and affectionate. We specialize in modern-type Oriental Shorthairs with stunning coat patterns and charming personalities. We also breed Siamese cats and truly enjoy raising these elegant, playful kittens.

Our cattery, Cataristocrat, is USDA-licensed and registered with The International Cat Association (TICA). We are committed to high standards of health, temperament, and breed quality.

Every breeding cat at Cataristocrat is DNA-tested before joining our program. We screen for more than 45 inherited genetic diseases and traits. When making breeding decisions, we also carefully consider genetic health, blood type, genetic diversity, and temperament.

Along with more than 15 years of breeding experience, I am currently pursuing a Master of Science in Veterinary Medical Sciences at the University of Florida. My studies focus on animal health, genetics, welfare, and evidence-based practices. This education directly supports the way I approach breeding, kitten care, and long-term breed health.

In addition to offering Oriental Shorthair and Siamese kittens for sale, we also share detailed information about our cattery, our breeding cats, and our kittens. Our goal is to help you feel confident and informed when choosing a new kitten for your family.

Both breeds, Oriental Shorthair and Siamese, are known for their elegant appearance and personality. Our cats stand out with their large ears, graceful body type, and a spectrum of coat colors, including solid colored and intriguing color combinations. Our Siamese type cats, in particular, are renowned for their vivid blue eyes and striking points.

All our kittens begin their journey in a loving and stimulating environment brimming with cat trees, where their natural instincts to climb and explore are nurtured. This playful setting isn't just for fun – it's an integral part of their growth and development. But our care goes beyond playfulness. At the cattery, we maintain a vigilant eye on health issues, employing preventative measures and proactive care to ensure each kitten blossoms in top condition. With our extensive expertise in cat breeding, we've honed a philosophy that goes beyond mere aesthetics.

It's a commitment to excellence that permeates every aspect of our work, from the gentle handling of newborns to the meticulous selection of coat colors and patterns. Our passion is tangible, reflected in the lively eyes and contented purrs of the cats we're privileged to raise.

I don’t normally write reviews, but this experience absolutely deserves one. I cannot say enough wonderful things about Cataristocrat Cattery and Olga. I just brought home my second Oriental Shorthair, Olympia, and from start to finish, Olga made the entire process seamless and reassuring. I was able to find my first Oriental Shorthair locally, but this time I couldn’t find one close to home. I was initially nervous about getting a kitten from out of state, especially after reading about scams in the purebred pet world. I found Olga while searching for registered Oriental Shorthair breeders through TICA (The International Cat Association), and from our very first interaction, I felt completely at ease. Olga was professional, transparent, and incredibly helpful from the beginning. Every step of the process was streamlined and organized, from contracts to payments, and she was always quick to respond to my emails. Not only did she answer every question thoroughly, but she often included helpful articles and thoughtful advice along the way. I was able to FaceTime with her several times to meet Olympia and ask questions, and it was immediately clear how deeply she cares about her cats. Olga provided consistent updates as Olympia grew, including information about her spay, veterinary visits, and vaccinations. She even included 6 week and 12 week photo sessions! The pictures were absolutely adorable and such a thoughtful touch. Many updates were integrated through her website, which is beautifully organized and full of helpful information. I encountered many breeders who primarily operate through social media, but Olga’s professional, easy-to-navigate website really stood out and gave me additional confidence throughout the process. On pickup day, we had to work around some bad weather, and Olga was incredibly patient and understanding when our pickup plans had to shift to much later in the evening than planned. Olga truly sets you up for success when bringing your kitten home. A couple of weeks before Olympia’s arrival, she sent a comprehensive supply list so I could be fully prepared. She also sent Olympia home with generous starter supplies including wet and dry food, litter, a blanket, toys, a carrier, and a well-organized binder containing all of Olympia’s health records and documentation. She even included a small amount of used litter to help Olympia transition smoothly to her new litter box (a small but incredibly thoughtful detail). When Olympia arrived, it was obvious she had been lovingly raised. She was healthy, well-groomed, confident, and affectionate from the moment she stepped out of her carrier. She immediately began exploring my apartment and adjusted beautifully to her new home. She was fully litter trained and transitioned without any issues. I am beyond happy to have Olympia as part of my family, and I am so grateful to have found Olga and Cataristocrat Cattery. Olga's professionalism, communication, attention to detail, and genuine care for her cats are unmatched. I would absolutely work with her again and would not hesitate to recommend Cataristocrat Cattery to anyone looking for an Oriental Shorthair.

This was by far the best experience with a breeder that I could’ve asked for. Olga was quick to respond to my inquiries and very flexible to work with. You can tell that her kittens are very loved, socialized and well cared for. Our kitten has adjusted to our family flawlessly. He is such a joy. I will be referring several of my friends to Olga for their future OSH purchases.

This is probably the best cattery for orientals/siamese kitties in the states! Olga is so helpful and invested in the whole process. You can tell she is very concerned about the well being of all her kitties that she sends out. We are very grateful for Olga and our new little addition to the family!
