    Seal sepia?

    we have learned my new boy is a seal sepia like his grandfather on his mom's side. Has anyone seen this coloring? So far he looks like he has a black tinge on his back so he might get dark. Would love to know if anyone else has one! Thanks. Gotcha day for him is beginning of November and his...

    my gotcha day!

    Hello there yesterday was a big day for us, we finally got our new baby Mew! Our story started in mid September when we first picked her from a batch of two litters born here in Denver close to home. The second I saw her little face and perfect stripes I had to have her. It has been a long...

    Pet insurance- do you have it?

    I don't know if I really need kitten insurance but I wanted to ask the pros LOL. Do you have it? Would you suggest it? What plans are best? I've been doing a lot of reading but I'm still not sure. Especially when there is no routine coverage.... that seems silly to me. Help!

    My gotcha day is finally here!

    I finally picked up Naomi from her breeder today and she is adjusting really well!☺️ She is very playful and already loves to cuddle. I have been familiar with the breed for years now and finally decided to take the jump and get a sphynx cat myself. I couldn't be happier with my decision. I...

    Surprise Gotcha day! Having some introduction issues

    So my mum and I found a pure white two year old female for immediate adoption and we couldn't refuse! The owner wanted her as a breeding cat but the cat refused to breed. Even though we've only had her a few hours (we haven't named her yet) She doesn't seem to like Grimley (a boy) . I don't...

    Hello everyone. So, my boy Arlo was born on Christmas Day and will be 12 weeks old on March 19th.

    Icarus - Gotcha Day (2/215)

    Woooo!!! He's here! After months of patience since seeing him when he was just 5 weeks old, he's now purring and in and out of snoozing next to me. What was great was coming back to the breeder's home and Icarus jumping up my leg knowing it was me. The trip back was amusing - had to go via...
