I will send a fur sample for those who would like to request one in order to see if a reaction will or will not occur. Fur Request Form - $10.00 We have some very beautiful young adults! See the Available Cats page for more info. We do not have kittens right now.Steps to adoption: 1. Fill out the On-line Application. 2. Once Your Application is Approved you may choose a testing/class day to attend. I will post you on the class list. Only those posted on the class list may attend. 3. Attend a Testing/Class Day.Only those posted for a class may attend. There is a $50.00 non-refundable deposit due on class day. Bring all of your asthma/allergy meds, Dr.'s phone number, and a clean change of clothing in case of reaction. 4. If, you do not react, choose a Kitten or Cat for Your Family. 5. Pay the Commitment Fee to Reserve a Kitten or Cat (The Commitment Fee is $250.00 for a male or $275.00 for a female and is non-refundable. It will be used to alter the kitten or cat that you choose). If, You Back Out of the Adoption No Fees Paid Will Be Returned. 6. Wait for Altering and Get Things Ready for Your New Pet to Come Home. Altering usually takes a week and a half. 7. Come on a Pick-Up Day. Make the Final Payment, Sign the Contract, and Bring Your New Kitten or Cat Home.
Pet Kittens are $950.00 plus $250.00 .00 for altering. Show Alters are $1,650.00 plus $250.00 for altering . Breeders are $1,800.00. No pet or show alter kitten leaves without being altered. Your kitten comes with kitten contract, first shots, has been dewormed. Your kitten's altering is already done. Kittens in the past have received a series of 3 shots as kittens, a rabies, and yearly shots after this. Today there is growing evidence that shots are compromising the health of kittens and cats alike. Some vets do not reccomend doing a full series of shots. You will need to make a decision about this with your vet. Why kittens go home after twelve weeks? http://www.breedlist.com/faq/young.html Kitails kittens go home at 10-13 weeks because they are altered at 9-12 weeks and need time to heal after altering is done. *Once a kitten is altered it doesn't really matter if you choose a boy or girl. They no longer have the gender related issues that an unaltered kitten/cat would have. They are basically all the same after altering.
Kitten names are temporary names |
On-line Application click here I do not take applications for unborn kittens. Only applications for the present cat or kittens are excepted. Or applications from those who would just like to be tested so, you know whether you can live with a Siberian. If, this is the case, please state this in the comments on the application. Next testing/class day for those listed is:
You must have: an approved application and be listed here, for a class, to attend. A$50.00 non-refundable cash deposit is due on testing/class day. Testing is: spending time with the Siberians to see if you react to them. Siberians are not hypo-allergenic for everyone. Class is: Learning basic cat care like grooming, while here at Kitails. Siberians must be groomed.
Kitails does NOT SHIP kittens. An adoption will only take place after attending a testing/class day. Waiting List: The choosing of kittens goes in the order that you are on the class schedule and pass/ complete a testing/class day. A kitten/cat will be marked as reserved when a family makes their choice. If it is your turn to choose, you have 7 days or until the next class day, to make your choice. If it is your turn and you don't make your choice in that time period I will allow the next family to begin making their choice. We need to be considerate of all on the list. When Breeders are on the wait list they get first pick because the best kittens are needed in order to keep the Siberian breed at its best. I also reserve the right to put on hold a kitten that I am considering for my breeding program. Please do not ask to visit the kittens on any day other than the day of your appointment. This may sound harsh, but we are not a petting zoo. Keep your kitten dry on the way home. |

The life of a kitten is in your hands when you take one of these sweet bundles home. Many people start out with good intentions of caring for them all their life, but then along the way some feel that kittie isn't so important anymore. A cat can live for 25 yrs. or more. Being a kitten is a small part of this 25 years of life. Please take into consideration that along the way you will need to get regular vet check-ups and medical care. If you do not think you can afford to pay for this, consider getting pet insurance. It usually costs about $200.00 a year, which may be cheaper than one visit to the vet. www.petinsurance.com Although it is not a requirement you should seriously consider it. If you don't think you can afford pet insurance, then perhaps you should consider whether or not you will really be able to afford a cat/kitten because just like you they need to be seen by a doctor and need medical care. Along the way you may run into problems with litter box usage, or furniture scratching, or moving, or injury, or sickness, or financial problems, and the golden years of old age, of your Siberian. Are you prepared to take care of this kitten in all situations? Please think it through and talk about it with family members. If the answer is no to any of these questions... please don't adopt this kitten. They are entirely dependent on their owners for food, shelter, and medical care. We have loved them from birth and don't want them to go to a home where someone has neglected, abused, or abandoned them to a shelter or just dumped them somewhere to fend for themselves. Adopting a Siberian should be for the ENTIRE LIFE of the kitten/cat. Please be a responsible pet owner. *Raising animals is not cheap. You may think that the price of an animal is high but, the food, medical care, toys, ect., ect. costs a lot of money. In order to produce healthy animals it will cost more money. This is a living thing that requires care. The time to produce a kitten takes 5 months from conception to the time when the kitten will go to its new home. That is approx. 120 days of work, feeding, and medical care before your kitten can come home. At $1,050.00 that's less than $7.00 a day for 2-7 hrs of work per day. Most of this will be spent on supplies and medical care. That does not take into consideration that the mother and father need food and care all year long not, just for the 5 months it takes to get a kitten ready to go home.
