Join Our waiting list

Cattery Waiting List Information and Process

 Thank you for your interest in our cattery! We are excited to help you find the perfect kitten to join your family. Joining our waiting list is completely free and does not require any commitment until you decide to place a deposit on a kitten.   


This process helps us ensure that those who are ready and committed to bringing home their new Maine Coon Kitten have a secure and fair chance to choose from one of our upcoming litters.


Below is a step-by-step explanation of how our waiting list works and how to join it. 

How to Join Our Waiting List:

 

  1. Fill Out Our Application: To begin the process, you must complete our application form. This helps us understand your preferences and ensures that we have a good idea of who you are and how our babies will be living at their new homes.
  2. Application Review & Contact: Once we receive your application, we will reach out to you to discuss what you’re looking for in a kitten. We will assess your preferences, lifestyle, and any other important factors to ensure a great fit.
  3. Pre-Approval and Waiting List Placement: After we’ve discussed your preferences, and everything aligns, we will pre-approve you and place you on our waiting list for upcoming litters. There is no cost to be added to our waiting list.

How the Waiting List Works:

 

  • Kittens' Availability: When our kittens are around 3-4 weeks old, we will begin reaching out to those on our waiting list in the order in which applications were received. At this time, we will inform you about the available kittens and their details.
  • Facetime or In-Person Visit: We will give you the option to schedule a FaceTime call or visit the kittens in person when they reach 5 weeks old. This will allow you to meet the kittens, ask any questions, and make your decision.
  • Placing a Deposit: Once you’ve selected a kitten, you will have the option to place a non-refundable deposit of $600 to secure your choice. This deposit must be made before the kittens reach 6 weeks old. If you do not place the deposit within that timeframe, the kitten will be made available to the next person on the waiting list or posted on our social media.
  • Skipping Your Chance:  If you choose not to put a deposit down on a current kitten available based on your preferences, you can keep your place on the waiting list for the next available kittens. You must respond and let us know this is your request, or we will consider your spot forfeited. After skipping your chance to place a deposit a second time, you will be moved to the end of the waiting list.
  • First Picks on Gender/Colors: The option to have the first pick for specific preferences or from a new litter can be available upon a deposit paid towards priority on our waiting list. Please specify your interest in this option on your application, and email us separately to discuss. We will only allow 2 waiting list priorities per litter.

After You've Chosen Your Kitten:

 

  • By placing the $600 deposit, you agree to our sales contract, which serves as a receipt for the deposit. This contract outlines all terms and conditions of the sale. The Terms and Conditions are available here on our website and should be read through thoroughly before placing a deposit.
  • Ongoing Communication: Once you’ve placed your deposit, we will maintain consistent communication with you, providing regular updates on your kitten’s progress, vet visits, and any important information as needed. You will also receive picture updates so you can follow your kitten’s growth and development.
  • Pick-Up Timeframe: Kittens can be picked up between 12-14 weeks of age. We will coordinate with you to schedule the pick-up once the kitten is ready to go home.

Older Kittens and Available Cats:

 

  • Occasionally, we may have older kittens or adult cats available for adoption. These could be kittens that were previously intended for our breeding program but are no longer needed, cats that have been retired from our breeding program, or kittens whose previous buyers backed out.
  • If we have any older kittens or cats available, we will inform you after you fill out your application. You will have the option to choose from our available adults or older kittens before being added to the waiting list for future litters.

 We look forward to helping you find the perfect kitten and appreciate your understanding of how our process works. If you have any questions or would like further clarification, don’t hesitate to reach out to us!
