I have wanted an ebony Oriental Shorthair for many many years, and several months ago we finally started looking for a breeder. The minute I found Cataristocrat’s webpage, I knew we’d found our match. Olga was wonderful to deal with all throughout the process. We received regular updates through photos and videos, and she was always quick to respond to any questions, during the months we waited for our kitten to be ready to come home. We had to have our baby shipped to us, and Olga prepared everything so carefully to ensure she travelled safe and snug. The minute we got the little one home, it was apparent how much care and love went into her breeding and raising. Our kitten is not only beautiful, but sweet, playful, and healthy. At her routine “wellness” appointment, the day after her arrival, the vet tech remarked what a great cat we have adopted, and we couldn’t agree more! Also, the appointment was a breeze because Olga had taken care of all kitten vaccinations, deworming, spay, and even nail clipping. We are so in love with our new addition to the family, and cannot say enough about what a great experience we have had with Cataristocrat! Thank you, Olga!
We recently got the most beautiful Oriental Shorthair from Olga and her cattery and we could not be more pleased with the whole experience. From the first contact to the last it’s been a very easy but thorough process. Olga made sure i was the right fit for the cat, gave me all the information i requested, answered all my questions, the payment process was very simple and before i knew it a flight was booked and my new family member was on her way. Elvira (formerly Coco Chanel) is so well adjusted and so sweet!! Plus she’s incredibly healthy and well loved. If i could have more cats they’d all be from Cataristocrat.
The transition from Cataristocrat was very easy considering the plane ride to get here. Olga helped me feel secure and made sure everything was perfect for a smooth flight. My beautiful kitty, Theia, is sociable, litter trained and very playful. So happy with my sweet princess. Highly recommend if you are considering one of her kitties, there are a lot of bad breeders out there that do not care about the animals but this sweet girl was very much loved and healthy. Thank you Cataristocrat !!!
