Kittens

" The smallest feline is a masterpiece "

I only raise 1-3 litters per year and occasionally have kittens available. Due to my work obligations, I do not show alot so my breedings are planned around regular show dates so I can take advantage of what few shows I can attend.

That said, I have produced some fabulous cats and I look forward to the day I am in a position that showing will not be so limited to me.

In the meantime, the refinement and health of my program will be priority.

I will likely have a new litter on the ground late summer.

To inquire about availability,

My Persians are placed with a contract to protect all involved.

Show homes have priority.

Breeding rights are only given to qualified Breeders who are currently registered as a ligitimate breeder/cattery in good standing with the registry they are affiliated.

I remain as Co-Owner of my Breeder/Show males placed with breeders.

I do not support or encourage "backyard breeding" as you have no idea the health issues you could contribute to a breed by doing so. You also have no idea the problems that you will encounter in all aspects of raising and you can be easily wiped out - at huge financial and emotional loss.

Only qualified, educated, registered Breeders should be breeding purebreds to preserve, contribute to and protect the breeds. Those who aspire to be a "Breeder" are certainly welcome to inquire - you must go about it the correct way.

Persians I place in pet / companion homes, are required to be

spayed / neutered before CFA registration papers will be transferred, per contract.

All of my retired cats are Spayed / Neutered before I place them in loving homes, to fulfill my contract obligations owed to their breeders.

**When you sign a contract - you willingly agree to and are expected to adhere to its terms. If you are not a shady person, you will have no problem with a contract.

Understand : Acquiring the bloodlines, quality and health to work with as well as raising these cats is extremely costly and time consuming.

It is a 24/7 undertaking, dedication and sacrifice only a breeder knows.

If you just want a pet, you may wish to

visit your local rescues/shelters first.

Important : Please be respectful of my time when I arrange my schedule to set an appointment for you. I have to set aside a full day to bathe, groom, ready paperwork, etc.

With 3 different work obligations, time is very precious to me and it is extremely hard to rearrange my schedule. If you are not one to be considerate enough to give me at least a full day notice of appointment cancellation, look elsewhere - someone else can have the "pleasure".

All Kittens / Retired adults will have had a recent health exam before they leave here.

Keep in mind, while my kittens / cats are vet checked before going to new homes and guaranteed to be in good health, their continued good health lies in your hands. Cheap commercial foods excessive vaccine & drug use, chemical filled litters, cleaners, topical flea controls, etc. can cause many health issues. I can't make someone raise naturally and I am not responsible for your choices.

I work extremely hard at raising for healthier Persians. They are not immune to health issues but any health issues they should have are very minor due to being raised naturally - as long as you keep raising them naturally.

Please understand that I expect my placed kittens/cats to have a permanent home with you. Go to my Rescue page and log onto rescue sites and see the fate I want them to avoid.

My concerns are that any cats I produce or adopt and retire, go to loving, financially stable, and responsible homes. The physical and emotional health and well-being of any cats adopted from Crystal Pond is extremely important to me. I am responsible for these animals and I will only place in homes I feel meet these criteria.

Do not inquire for a kitten as a gift - it is not wise unless the person on the recieving end knows this will be a gift and is willing to take on a Persian as these animals require alot more care. I require original owners be the one to agree to the terms of the contract, etc.

I know you may also want a certain color but if your personalities clash it will not be an ideal home for one of my cats. Personalities have to be matched or the cat may not have a permanent home. Getting to know you will help me with offering you a kitten/cat who will be just perfect for you.

Yes of course you will have final choice, just keep your breeders' suggestion in mind for a good personality match;-)

Some people want an active cat and some want more of a lap cat. Kittens are usually playful and rambunctious the first year so perhaps you may want a retired adult that is out of the kitten phase ?? Many other factors come into play that are usually beyond our control when it comes to an animal having a permanent home with someone, but a caring breeder can eliminate the the common reasons through screenings.
