How to buy a British kitten
Familiarize yourself with the conditions for purchasing British kittens in our cattery, the possibility of delivery, the guarantees provided.
Agreement
British kittens in our cattery are sold under the contract. The terms of the contract and the cost of the kitten are negotiated separately with each buyer.
The price of a British kitten can vary from 3000 to 10000 USD and more and depends on various factors: on the breed qualities of a kitten, on the purpose of acquiring a kitten, on color (popularity for a particular color may change from time to time) and other circumstances.
First of all, you need to decide on the purpose of the acquisition:
- You want a British kitten exclusively as a pet with the possibility of spaying at puberty. It is possible to purchase a kitten already spayed at the age of 4 months.
- You need a sire to permanently breed British kittens. British cats under breeding are expensive and this is due not only and not so much to the pedigree qualities of a kitten, but to the widespread breeder guarantees that are included in the contract. Conditions for purchasing a British kitten for breeding It depends on where you live, whether you have experience living in breeding kittens, how many nurseries are in the future, etc.
Breed qualities of a kitten are inherited from parents. If the parents give to a friend, except that they are successfully delivered and receive excellent marks from judges, titles and awards at international cat shows, then the likely number of kittens will also be worthy. British kittens in the first year can live differently. But at the time of sale, the kitten must be healthy, well developed, with no visible genetic defects. In the contract for the purchase of a British kitten for breeding, our cattery guarantees excellent marks from two different judges at the International Cat Show during the first year of the kitten’s life.
The cost of a British kitten depends on the increase in its moment of transfer to a new owner. In our cattery you can buy a kitten at the age of 12 weeks (not earlier). At the time of the transfer, the kitten had already been dewormed and given the first vaccination against viral rhinotracheitis, calicivirus infection, feline panleukopenia, and possibly (depending on the vaccine) chlamydia.
Rabies vaccination for British kittens is done no earlier than 3 months of age, after vaccination, quarantine is 21 days. Therefore, the kitten will be 3.5 months old at the time of sale.
We have the opportunity to purchase an already sterilized kitten, and this is also noticeable on its cost. In this case, the kitten can be picked up no earlier than 4 months of age.
