I love my beautiful Oriental Shorthair, Zarina! She is the perfect combination of smart, loving, social, brave, and adventurous. I have never met a cat quite like her, and I feel so lucky to have her as part of my family. Olga was extremely helpful throughout the process. She kept me informed with photos and updates on my kitten and provided quick responses to any questions I had. Additionally, Olga’s website contains a wealth of information. I couldn’t recommend Cataristocrat enough!
Olga is amazing she made everything come together and found a way to get Setsuko to me sadly and securely every during the Covid-19 epidemic. Setsuko is such a wonderful little girl, so sweet and loving with plenty of energy and snuggles togive. I wanted to have another Oriental Shorthair in my life after I lost my Taka to cancer. When I was ready I researched breeders and Olga and Cataristocrat were who I chose to work with. I HIGHLY recommend working with Olga if you are looking for an amazing fur-child. I am so happy I did.
Worth. Every. Penny. As a veterinarian that has taken care of animals for more than 20 years, I could not be more impressed (and in love) with the Oriental Shorthair I got from Cataristocat. The first night, he snuggled and purred in the crook of my neck. He is so smart, engaging and a love bug!!! I will get all my future babies here!!!!!
