Waiting List?
Joining the waiting list is free. You will have PRIORITY on available kittens, before I POST PUBLICY. When kittens are born you will have the option to pick or pass.
How long will it take to get a kitten?
I can only give you an ESTIMATED time frame, mother nature controls the rest. Time also depends on how open you are on gender / color. Please keep in mind, we are a small in-house breeder, and NOT a MASS producer.
How much do kittens cost?
- Our Ragdoll Parents are registered with TICA.
- Our ragdoll kitten price is $2,200-$2,800. Kittens are born white and will be marked under evaluation, until 4-5 weeks of age.
- Kittens are SOLD STRICTLY AS PETS. NO BREEDING RIGHT. Registration paperwork will be withheld until proof of altering is received.
- We DO NOT breed Minks, Sepias, or Solids. These Ragdolls do not meet the breed standards.
- Sorry I don’t devalue my kitten base on gender. Our prices are NOT negotiable just as the care and service that we provide is not negotiable.
- Prices are subject to change on any ragdoll kitten that is NOT RESERVED. Prices have drastic increase in our expenses since COVID. All breeder expenses are different. Our price reflects our daily expenses, investments, paying for a sitter when I am away, food, replaced cat furniture, toys, food, litter, cleaning supplies, vet care.
Non-Refundable DEPOSIT.
- @4 Weeks of age, I require a "GOOD INTENT" NON-REFUNDABLE deposit of $300 to reserve your ragdoll kitten until 10-12 weeks of age. We accept ONLY Zelle, Venmo, or PayPal SORRY, (Friends/Family Option). NO checks, NO cash app. Remaining kitten balance is due at pickup.
- Deposit will be applied towards the total purchase price of ragdoll kitten. $2,200-$2,800.
- I will only hold a kitten for 1 HOUR after we agree this is your kitten. DELAYING this payment, I will assume you've lost interest, and it will result in loss of your kitten pick. Kitten will go back up for sale.
- Once a kitten is placed on HOLD for you, we do not allow changes. This policy ensues no kitten misses out on their forever home.
- If you choose to back out of your commitment, NO deposit will be returned. Non-Refundable deposits are however transferable up to 1 year of received date, you must choose a ragdoll kitten within that year, from a different litter and you take the change price may go up.
- If the unforeseeable happens to kitten while in my care, I will return your deposit.
When can i pick up kitten?
- Our main focus is on making transition from our home to yours easy as possible. Kittens need time to grow and gain socialization skill, be exposed to various stimulation, children, normal household sounds.
- Each litter/kitten is different they must hit all milestones before leaving myside.
- Kittens will be ready 10-12 weeks after birth, at breeder discretion. By the time kittens are ready they will be used to the litter box, eating hard food, weigh at least 2lbs, and have the necessary vaccinations.
- MONDAY-WEDNESDAY 10AM-12PM. I will let you know within days of birth of FIRM PICK UP DAY, so you will have 3 months in advance to make arrangements. NO EXTRA TIME WILL BE GIVEN without boarding fees.
- (I am NOT a store with open hours). PLEASE be on TIME. Do not assume I am at home with nothing to do, other than to wait. "If your LATE, you will wait". Could be minutes or hours, I have other appointments and obligations, this is why time is so important.
- Be sure to SCHEDULE 48 HOUR VET CHECK.
TRY and plan to take a few days off so, you can have uninterrupted time to focus on new kitten.
Where to pick up / Shipping?
- I will send out my address my physical address within a few days of (Home Pickups).
- New Orleans International Airport (MSY) if you're (flying in) to pick up your kitten. You need to bring airline approved pet carryon bag, check with your airline for reservation/fees. If you choose to fly in, please be aware that you must arrange your flight during a time (I) will already be at airport. (10am-12pm). If you are unable to coordinate your flight within my time window, I can likely arrange a later meet up time, for a convenience fee $60.

VISIT & TOUCH
We are NOT a store/facility/petting zoo, we are a CLOSED cattery.
Please keep in mind this is my home, my first priority is the safety of my children.
*I am well aware of the "INTERNET BLOGGERS" that advocate for visiting the breeder and the kitten. The problem with these sites is their priority is the buyer and not the health of the kittens. What about Kittens' Immune system / Covid / or the UNKOWN dangers of inviting strangers into your home, who may or may not have good intentions.
My days and weekends are very busy with three school age children. My off days are reserved for my responsibilities and other commitments. I simply can't ACCOMNODATE the numerous of daily request to come visit and touch. I am available FACETIME with a scheduled appointment.
I REALIZE THAT NOT EVERYONE WILL BE COMFORTABLE WITH THIS ARRANGEMENT, I ENCOURAGE FAMILIES TO SEEK OUT FULL TIME BREEDERS, WHO CAN ACCOMMODATE YOUR REQUEST.
BOARDING FEES
- I require a DAILY BOARDING FEE of $25, for each additional day the kitten is with me pass pick up day.
- I will not hold a kitten pass 12 weeks old, you will forfeit your money, and kitten will be resold without any other obligation to you. WHY!!!, YOU WILL BE PAYING FOR EXTRA, VET COST, FOOD, BOARDING, ADVERTISING KITTEN AGAIN AND FOR WASTING MY TIME TO FIND KITTEN A HOME. Sorry for ADDITIONAL COST, but people play games with days, trying to get next shots free, still convening spouse, scraping money together.
