Hawaii's British Shorthair Cats

Say aloha 🌺 to the next little gem 💎 in your family

about our cats

We breed with high quality British & Scottish lines. Coats are soft, silky and plush. Eyes & head are round with a chonky body. Once a British is crossed with a Scottish it either becomes a fold or a straight ear Scottish

We are a TICA and CFA registered cattery located on the Big Island of Hawaii.

We currently have beautiful silver shaded and silver chinchilla lines. Silver shaded means that the color is restricted to just the ends of the hair shaft creating a very sparkly white/silver look to their coat.

We do have plans to bring in champion lines of British Shorthair colors for 2026!

Kittens and parents are raised in home with love and nurturing care. We believe in a healthy approach so our cats are fed an organic raw meat diet. They have lots of space to run around, play and explore to keep their minds engaged and happy.

Health is priority, so we do DNA testing on our breeding cats to examine health genetics and each breeding cat is FIV/FELV/PKD FREE.

Our cats are our family.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the health guarantees?

Parents & kittens are fed primarily a organic raw food diet with other natural supplementations. Each kitten will be up to date on their vaccines and tested free of FELV and FIV. Breeding cats have DNA health genetics tests completed showing they are free of all major diseases tested (see our Instagram for test results). Most importantly, we breed our Scottish fold with straight ear cats to be sure they only carry one copy of the fold gene to ensure better health.

At what age are kittens available?

Kittens are ready to join you in your home between 12-16 weeks of age. The exact timing depends on their development and vaccine schedules, travel etc. This gives them the proper amount of time to be nourished and trained by mom. Kittens will have their first required vaccines and be litter trained. Certain kittens we may keep a little longer for showing or arrange with you to have a show kitty!

What is the process to reserve a kitten?

First step is to complete the kitten waitlist application. There is a FREE waitlist and an option to select the priority waitlist. For the priority waitlist there is a $250 non-refundable deposit that goes toward the purchase of your kitten. This gives you priority pick of the litter. Once we open up reservations for the FREE waitlist of kittens we have available, if we have a type or kitten you are interested in, we ask you to message us and let us know. We then review your application and factor in waitlist position to offer you the reservation of that kitten. Once you select a kitten, you will sign a sales agreement and pay a non-refundable deposit of 30% of the purchase price. Then before or on the day of pick you will pay the remaining balance. If you change your mind on a kitten, we can transfer the deposit one time for a future kitten. Deposit contract is good for 2 years after signing.

How much does a kitten cost?

Prices range depending on various factors but we know how it's important to have at least an idea for your budget. Kitten prices start out around $2500 and up.

Price includes: Up to date vaccines, de-worm, tick/flea, microchipped and vet health check & tests clearing them of FIV & FELV & fecal analysis before re-homing.

Price also includes kittens being fed organic raw meat while in our cattery, and that kittens have been bred from genetically healthy parents FREE of PKD, FIV, FELV and all other major diseases (see our instagram profile for full health & genetic profiles of parents).

Where are you located?

We are located on the beautiful and lush Big Island of Hawaii. We live in the sunbelt just a few blocks from the ocean on the East side of the Island. To fly in and pick up kittens, the closest airport is Hilo. Kona airport is 2 1/2 hours away. Come for a vacation and take home a sweet cuddly kitten!

What options do I have to get the kitten to me?

New owner is responsible for pick up costs. Kittens can be shipped in cargo via specific airlines from Hilo, Hawaii. We do prefer that the kittens ride in the cabin of the airplane on the day of delivery with either you or someone escorting them. Depending on location, we can discuss transportation options.
