Health Guarantee

We take health extremely serious. 

Every kitten we raise comes from carefully selected, fully tested breeding cats.

Our goal is to provide families with not only beautiful kittens, but also the peace of mind that your companion has had the very best start in life.

Genetic Screening

All of our breeding cats are DNA tested through Optimal Selection by Wisdom Panel, North America’s most trusted feline genetic testing service. They are confirmed negative for more than 50 known feline genetic diseases, including Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD), Progressive Retinal Atrophy (PRA-pd), and Autoimmune Lymphoproliferative Syndrome (ALPS). They are also tested negative for FIV (Feline Immunodeficiency Virus) and FeLV (Feline Leukemia Virus). In addition, all breeding cats are carefully screened for heart health, including Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (HCM), based on veterinary examinations and lineage. Our kittens themselves undergo thorough veterinary checks before going home, including three separate heart examinations, listening for murmurs or other signs of early cardiac issues. This ensures that kittens are not at risk of inheriting preventable hereditary diseases and gives families confidence in both their short- and long-term health.

Vaccination & Parasite Control

All kittens receive comprehensive veterinary care before leaving our cattery. They are fully vaccinated according to age with the FVRCP core series and rabies vaccine, and are dewormed on schedule to protect against common parasites. Each kitten undergoes multiple health checks to ensure they are thriving, including monitoring weight, growth, and overall development. With these preventative measures, families can feel confident that their kitten starts life with a strong foundation of health and protection.

72-Hour Health Guarantee

We offer a 72-hour health guarantee from the time your kitten goes home. Families are encouraged to take their kitten to a veterinarian within this window for a wellness exam. If any serious health issue is identified during this time, the kitten may be returned for a full refund. While this is rarely needed, it provides peace of mind for new owners during the transition.

1-Year Genetic Guarantee

In addition to early screenings, we provide a one-year genetic health guarantee against life-threatening congenital or hereditary conditions. If such a condition is diagnosed by a licensed veterinarian within the first year, families will be offered a replacement kitten of equal value when one becomes available.

Optional DNA Testing for Your Kitten

Although all breeding cats are fully screened, families who would like their individual kitten tested are welcome to request it. We use the same trusted laboratory, and results typically take two to four weeks. The cost of testing is the buyer’s responsibility. If an unexpected genetic issue were ever identified, the buyer may choose to switch to a replacement kitten.

30-Day Complimentary Pet Insurance

To give families additional peace of mind, all kittens leave with 30 days of complimentary Trupanion pet insurance (Canada and USA only). This coverage begins immediately upon adoption and helps protect against unexpected veterinary expenses in the first month.

Lifetime support

Our commitment does not end when your kitten goes home. We are always available to answer questions, whether it’s about diet, training, grooming, or health. Families can rely on us for guidance throughout their cat’s lifetime.
