About Us
Minkitty is a CFA
registered cattery name and is located in Ohio just west of
Cleveland.
Tonkinese have been a part of our lives since 1993. In 1994 I
started showing Tonkinese and started breeding a couple of years later.
I am an active member of the Tonkinese Breed Association and their former regional coordinator. I am also a member of the CFA Tonkinese Breed Council. In addition I'm an active member of the Cleveland Persian Society, Champagne Cat Club and Almost Heaven Cat Club. I'm also one of the oldest (in tenure - only ;) ) member of Western Pennsylvania Cat Club. These are show producing allbreed cat clubs and we put on at least four shows per year.
The
goal of Minkitty Cattery is to breed healthy
cats that
meet the standard and have the wonderful Tonk personality. Our cattery
is in our home and our kittens are raised under foot. Minkitty Cattery is not a business but rather a hobby which we love and enjoy. We only have a couple of litters per year. We do this so that we can provide our complete attention to the current litter making sure that each kitten is adequately spoiled. Kittens are not placed until they are about four months old in order to insured that they have a fully developed immune system and are properly socialized. The kittens are spayed or neutered before placement and receive a series of four core vaccines, a rabies vaccination and each kitten is tested for feline leukemia and FIV. These are CFA pedigreed kittens and will come with a six generation Tonkinese to Tonkinese pedigree and CFA registration papers. Once the kitten is placed in your home, we will work with you to make sure the kitten makes the transition easily. If there is a problem, I will, of course take the kitten back.
Since I show my cats regularly, you can be assured that they will look like
what a Tonkinese should look like.
If we do not have any kittens available and you live in Ohio or a neighboring state, please feel free to e-mail me as I can provide you with referrals to other breeders who raise their kittens in a similar manner and with similar values.
