Kittens

I like to give my kittens my full attention so only plan for one or two litters a year. They are all born in my bedroom (and occasionally on my bed…) and home-reared, so they are used to normal family life. All Dushenka kittens have excellent pedigrees and are registered with the Governing Council of the Cat Fancy (GCCF) on the non-active register, as I only let my kittens go to loving family homes and not for breeding. They are fully vaccinated, wormed, frontlined, micro-chipped and health-checked by my vet before they leave home, usually at 14-15 weeks old, and never younger than 13 weeks old - as per the GCCF Code of Ethics. I expect new owners to take as good care of my kittens as I have, and love them as much or more.

Sorry, we don't have any kittens available right now as our last litter has now left home, but try the RACCS website if you would like details of other breeders who may have kittens available.  Fingers crossed for more beautiful babies at the end of 2010 too. You can see photos and progress reports of some of my litters here:

Cat brooch from St Michael's Monastery, Kiev

Hear our prayer, Lord, for all animals,
May they be well fed and well treated and happy.
Protect them from hunger and fear and suffering.
And, we pray, protect specially, dear Lord,
The little blue cat who is the companion of our home.
Keep her safe as she goes abroad
And bring her back to comfort us.

(Traditional Russian prayer)
