Early-age Spaying/Neutering of Cats

Today, nobody disputes the fact that gonadectomy (a surgical procedure by which ovaries or testicles are removed) in animals not intended for breeding is neither a tribute to fashion nor a whim.

Tips for Bringing a New Oriental
or Siamese Kitten Home

Give the kitten space: When you first bring your new kitten home, it's important to give them some space to adjust to their new surroundings. Set up a designated area in your home, such as a spare room or a bathroom, where your kitten can stay for the first few days.

I was invited into their home to spend some bonding time with Siberia and her siblings. We had tea , visited, and played. Wonderful start to a new relationship with my new family addition. Siberia is everything I expected and more. I have nothing but praise for this family and how they conduct business. If I adopt again , they will be at the top of my list.

Cataristocrat is a great cattery. Olga goes the extra mile to keep you informed, the website, updates, FAQ and pictures are great. More importantly,it is clear that she loves the cats and kittens in her care! Our kitten, Nox, was so well socialized that he took to our family instantly. Overall an excellent experience!

We just brought our new baby, a beautiful black female oriental shorthair, home last week from picking her up from Olga’s Cataristocrat Cattery. We reserved our baby just after birth. Our entire experience with Olga has been very good. Olga and her husband have implemented a user friendly interactive website that kept us up-to-date and informed about our kitty's progress- her growth, health, vet appointments and procedures during the sixteen weeks we waited for the pickup date to arrive. My husband and I elected to drive to Ashland to pickup our new baby. Upon our pickup, Olga had everything well organized to turnover to us all the breeder and veterinary paperwork, resource information, kitten toys, dry and wet food, and litter. We can tell that Olga's heart went into caring for our baby, the kitten is so loving, sweet and well-mannered. Olga did a great job initially raising our kitten with social skills making the transition with our new baby into our home easy and effortless. Olga has followed up with us showing her commitment as a first class breeder. We love our Cataristscat kitten and recommend Olga without reservation. Olga, thank you for everything! Chip & Tammy
