Loveable Paws Cattery

Maine Coon
  • Facebook Basic Black

Thank you for visiting our site!! Our family has always been animal crazy.  We love our furry babies as part of the family.  We live in a rural area so have always had a lot of stray animals in our area which we either adopted or rescued and found homes for. The problem we always had was that the cats were never content to stay only in the house. Because they were already used to being outside, they always insisted on being let out a lot. The problem with that was that almost every cat we ever adopted would just disappear within a few years if not sooner after we had become attached, leaving us all in tears.

 

Finally, when my daughter was in high school and a favorite cat got killed by a car, she begged and pleaded with me to purchase a kitten from a breeder that we could raise to keep strictly indoors so it wouldn't be exposed to illnesses and take a chance on getting killed outdoors.  I had rescued so many strays in my life that I was a little opposed to actually purchasing a kitten, but Melissa was persistently showing me adorable pictures and I finally couldn't resist.

 

Our first boy acted so much like a dog it was hard to believe he was a cat!  I had never had such a loving wonderful calm sweetheart of a cat!  I'm a retired NICU nurse and love babies, so it didn't take long for Melissa to convince me to get a female and have a litter of kittens.  I was there to assist with the delivery and we enjoyed the experience of raising the kittens so much, we've been hooked ever since! All of our adults are European Maine Coons, coming from Russia, Poland, Germany & Italy. They are raised in our home and have become siblings to my grandchildren. The grandchildren love their kitties and can't wait to play with the babies every day!

We are registered with TICA, LOVEABLEPAWS cattery in Arkansas, Melissa & Wendy. 

To answer most questions, most of our kittens start at 2000. Please only serious inquiries. While we do have a few forever kitties, we cannot keep all our breeders. We do not like for them to have many litters; we would like them to have long lives in their forever homes. So we do retire our breeders already spayed & neutered usually starting at 750.  Please contact us to get on a waitlist for a retired adult.

 

We like to video chat with you so you can see and talk to us about the babies. For our privacy and to protect the health of our kitties we don't allow in home visits. We can meet at our vet when kittens are older for you to meet them in person. There is a 500 deposit to reserve a kitten, full payment is due at pick up. If the kittens are of age to leave (12 weeks) you can pay in full at pick up, no deposit is required.

If you find a kitten that is "cheaper" it is likely a scam or a backyard breeder. Backyard breeders purchase kittens from breeders at pet price or from another backyard breeder. They do not have permission from their breeder to breed the cat. They then sell the kittens at a cheap price, because they cannot provide registration papers. This really does hurt real breeders. So please do not support backyard breeders. Never send money to someone without video calling them with the kitten or meeting in person with the kitten. 

We appreciate everyone who has purchased a kitten from us and all the referrals. We couldn't keep doing this without you!
