Health & Wellness
Health is the heart of our British Longhair cattery. While beauty, coat, and eye color are important, they never come before strong health, sound structure, and stable, loving temperaments. Every decision we make is guided by what allows our cats to live long, comfortable, happy lives. A wise woman once said, always breed for health, temperament, and type in that order and I have always stayed true to those words without regret.
Our Approach To Health
We breed thoughtfully and intentionally. That means fewer litters, careful planning, and never compromising a cat’s well-being for under any circumstance, our cats our family and we treat them as so.
Our priorities are simple:
Long-term health and longevity
Strong immune systems
Balanced structure and easy breathing
Calm, affectionate, confident temperaments
5-Year Health Guarantee
We proudly offer a 5-year genetic health guarantee for our kittens.
This guarantee is designed to protect both the kitten and the family, while remaining fair, honest, and rooted in responsible breeding practices. We are confident in the health of our kittens and want the families adopting from us to feel just as confident they are receiving a healthy kitten! We believe guarantees should reflect real responsibility — not vague promises.
By insuring coverage for genetic conditions that are actively tested for, we ensure:
Transparency
Honest expectations
Protection without loopholes
We stand behind our breeding cats, our testing, and the kittens we produce.
Vetrinary Care
Our cats receive consistent, routine veterinary care, including:
Annual wellness exams
Vaccinations
Parasite prevention
FeLV/FIV testing
Our queens are closely monitored before, during, and after pregnancy to ensure their safety and comfort at every stage.
Nutrition & Early Development
We feed a high-quality, human grade raw species-appropriate diet chosen specifically to support:
Healthy growth and bone development
Dense, well-conditioned coats
Digestive health
Strong immune systems
Kittens are raised on a consistent diet and transitioned gradually, helping them adjust smoothly to their new homes. Please check out our Feeding & Nutrition page for a deep dive what we feed and learning about raw diets.
Kitten Health Standards
Before leaving our cattery, every kitten:
Receives age-appropriate vaccinations for FVRCP
Is preventively dewormed
Receives multiple full veterinary health examination
Is evaluated for structure, breathing, and overall condition
We guarantee our kittens leave us healthy, confident, well-socialized, and thriving.
Thoughtful Placement
We place kittens with lifelong well-being in mind.
Breeding-quality kittens are placed selectively and only with programs that share our health-first values
Kittens not intended for breeding are placed in carefully screened pet homes
We always reserve the right to decline placement if we feel it is not in the kitten’s best interest.
