Miss Duchess is finally getting some one-on-one couch time now that her July Bridgerton kittens are all off being spoiled in their new homes. 🥹

She’s currently very sure she needs a boyfriend again (in full heat over here 😅), but she’ll be waiting until January for her next pairing. Our plan is to repeat her breeding with Prince - We were really pleased with the structure, temperaments, and consistency in that litter, so we’re looking to repeat that.

For now she’s back to hanging out with the other queens, racing through the house between naps, extra snacks, and all the attention. 🥰

Yes yes, we know he needs a grooming day 😂 We’re getting to it.

Say hello to big daddy PRINCE, sire of our last two litters. Chunky bone, wild expression, and that crazy fluffy coat – he embodies so many qualities that we love and strive to pass onto the next generation.

I’m late posting this (as always 🙈) but two days ago our handsome boy Killian (formerly Benedict) headed to his forever home! 😍

He joined a wonderful local family where I know he’ll flourish and be so cherished. This gorgeous boy has amazing coat texture, and massive size already - 8.2 lbs at just 16 weeks! We already miss him, but our hearts are full knowing he’s surrounded by so much love. We can’t wait to keep up with his updates. 🥰

With Killian’s send-off, that wraps the go-home posts for our Bridgerton litter. 🥹 We hope to announce an upcoming litter in the next two weeks, with additional litters planned for the spring.

We’re so excited to officially welcome Athena to our program! 🤍

Athena is an fs22 female (Black Silver Torbie Classic Tabby) and a WCF-titled Champion. She’s a proven mom who raised her first litter before joining us. She brings new lines that pair well with our studs and offers excellent structure, a clean profile, an excellent chin, a well-finished coat, and a steady, affectionate temperament. She has just completed her health testing to align with our standards and will be bred in her next heat cycle. Pairing details are on our websites Upcoming Litters page. In addtion the the above, we are excited to have her broaden our color options.

Help me welcome our new queen, Athena. 🥳🫶

Our boy Killian (previously Benedict) from our Bridgerton litter is officially 16 weeks old and will be heading home on the 5th. 😍

We’re soaking up these last cuddles for the next week and a half while he gets ready for his new adventure. He’s grown into such a confident, curious, affectionate boy - Always ready to play and quick to purr. 😊 His bag is packed, his paperwork is ready, and we can’t wait to see him thrive with his family. 🥹

Knowing he’s about to be surrounded by so much love makes our hearts so full. We love you, Killian!!!

I’m late posting this… but our boy Nimbus (previously Gregory) went home recently. 🥹

He settled in like he’s always belonged. He bonded with the grandkids right away and decided the family dog is his new best friend. They play, play, play nonstop, and curl up to nap together. The updates we have gotten are so sweet, and I couldn’t be more pleased with how he’s fitting in.

Knowing he’s surrounded by so much love and a built-in buddy makes our hearts so full. We love you, Nimbus! 😘😘😘

Our boy Ace from our Ace of Hearts litter went home yesterday 🥲❤️

He’s staying local here in Texas with the most wonderful animal-loving family, complete with cats, dogs, and four kiddos to keep him busy. His new family shared that he’s already settled in like he’s always belonged..confident, curious, and FULL of personality.

Knowing he’ll grow up surrounded by so much love and plenty of playmates makes our hearts so full. 🥹 We love you, Ace!

Neuter day was yesterday for our handsome boy, Nimbus (previously Gregory) 💙 We’re so proud of how well he handled everything. The clinic absolutely fell in love with him - Every vet tech said he was going to be their new lock screen or screensaver for quite awhile because they couldn’t stop taking pictures of him and loving on him after surgery. He was definitely the most popular animal in the clinic all day. 😂

On the drive home from downtown, which took about an hour and a half, he was pure purrs the entire way. He kneaded my arm (and the air 😆), soaked up the attention, and made the ride such a peaceful one. It’s moments like these that remind us how much early socialization pays off in shaping calm, confident kittens. 😍

We’re very pleased with how his surgery went and happy to share that Nimbus is recovering beautifully. 🥰

Our sweet boy Ace 🩶 He was featured by Emancipet for World Animal Day! 🥰

Ace absolutely adored the staff during his neuter appointment. They took such wonderful care of him (and spoiled him with attention, of course 😄).

We’re so grateful for the Emancipet team for always treating our babies with such love and kindness. We love supporting them in return with a donation at every visit to help more pets receive care. 💕

Our boy Howl (formerly Anthony) from our Bridgerton litter made it safely home to Missouri 💕

He was such a perfect travel buddy! Calm in the car, curious at the airport, and full of purrs the entire way. He made more than a couple of fans during our trip. We even took a break at a park outside MCI to get a little fresh air and cuddle on a bench before saying our goodbyes. 🥹

He’s already so loved by his new family, and seeing him in their arms makes every bit of work so worth it. 🖤

A little late posting these! These photos were taken on Friday when Killian (formerly Benedict) was on his way home from his neuter appointment 💙

He’s now two days into recovery and doing great. If anything, the whole experience has made him even more of a purr machine. He’s extra snuggly, extra sweet, and happiest when he’s being doted on. 😆 I’ll share some cone pictures soon, but rest assured he’s recovering very well. 🥰
