Welcome to our gorgeous babies. When searching for a Norwegian Forest Cat Kitten please visit as many breeders as you can ( not on the same day though as this can spread disease) to ascertain that the kitten you select is right for you and your family circumstances. There are several breeders in the UK and a huge variation in type, size and colours to choose from. Be aware of kitten farms (those that have many kittens for sale at one time) and please note some breeders say they test their kittens/cats for FIP - there is NO available test for this disease! not in the UK or abroad! Before requesting one of our kittens please read the notes at the bottom of this page. email us at Telephone 01677 470854 Mobile: 07718 237079 **************** We are probably the longest standing breeder of 11 years specialising in White Forest cats in the UK now with our white line being a lovely female born 1995 from the very first white import into the UK from Denmark - a 3rd generation old bloodline named Håakon Rein Felis Jubatus imported into the Kyrrekatt cattery by the late Eileen Hancock. In our opinion this was a most fabulous boy with many qualities and one of the best white lines in the UK. We have produced many very large cats from this line and mostly with excellent coat quality and only very few have been affected with hearing impairment - 5 to date. **************** I am also the welfare officer for The Norwegian Forest Cat Society (TNFCS). If you would like to adopt a rescued Norwegian Forest Cat or would like to be placed on our waiting list then please do contact me.
New kittens added 7th January 2012 Fully Vaccinated and ready to go now We were going to keep her as a breeding queen but my personal circumstances have now changed and I can no longer keep her. She is available for a breeding queen as she is good enough and has an outstanding pedigree. Equally, a lovely pet home will do her proud as well.

Now in our eleventh year of owning exhibiting and breeding this wonderful breed and now approaching a time when our foundation breeding cats will begin to be neutered/spayed. This is sad for us in one way but happy in that they have produced some outstanding progeny and time moves ahead. They will stay with us for life of course! **************** This past 9 months and for the next year we have decided to run on a few of our bred kittens with a view to selecting our next generation of breeding cats. All of them will not make this level for various reasons. We will only select the very best with attributes to further the quality of the breed and who will contribute to even better progeny. We gain from this in two ways - firstly we can watch their development carefully and select only the best for breeding and secondly we get to keep our kittens for that bit longer :-) As a result you may see occasionally an older kitten which we call an adolescent for sale. These will already be neutered or spayed before they leave us. They will settle well into a new home and some people like to have an older kitten as they are established in their character and behaviour and people can see what they are getting rather than wait through the young kitten stage.
When purchasing a Norwegian Forest Kitten from a breeder in the UK make sure the kitten is registered with The GCCF, FB. or TICA. Registration verifies the kitten has a genuine pedigree, the parents are who they are supposed to be and also that the breeder is responsible enough to prevent indiscriminate breeding practices. All kittens from Norgeskaukatt Breeding Cats are registered with GCCF or FB. All white kittens are BAER Tested ( hearing tested) No white kittens are used or sold for breeding unless they have full hearing status. We do not believe in breeding from deaf or unilateral hearing white cats as we have been advised breeding from hearing impaired cats increases the hearing defect in any subsequent kittens. We only sell kittens to indoor homes or homes with cat proofed gardens/ cat runs. We do however, relax this criteria if they are to go to more remote dwellings, for example a farm which is this breeds natural environment. These cats are bold and fearless and in the Norwegian literature it states " no matter how well provided for these cats are, if they are of a mind to wander off they will do so" many of these cats are killed in RTA's before reaching the age of 1 year old. We breed our babies to have a full happy life.
At
long last - a real - top drawer - cereal free - clean and very
fresh cat food.
Thank goodness cats
can now enjoy a more natural diet!
