I Love My Little Kitty ......


I love my little kitty, she makes my house a home.  She always is my best friend, I never feel alone. She makes me smile, she makes me laugh, She fills my heart with love ...Did some breeder breed her, or did she fall down from above?  I've never been a breeder, seen life through their eyes, I hold my little kitty and just sit and criticize.  I've never known their anguish, I've never felt their pain, The caring of their charges, through snow or wind and rain.  I've never sat the whole night through, waiting for babies to be born, The stress and trepidation when they're still not there by dawn.  I've never felt the heartache, of a little life in my hands, This darling little baby, who weighs but 60 grams.  Should you do that instead of this ....or this instead of that, Alone you fight, and hope one day, he'll grow to be a cat, and bring joy to another being, and make a house a home, You know it's all just up to you, you'll fight this fight alone.  Formula, bottles, heating pads, you've got to get this right, Two hourly feeds for this tiny guy, throughout the day and night.  In your heart you know, you're almost sure to lose the fight, to save this little baby, but God willing ... you just MIGHT.  Day one he's in there fighting, you say a silent prayer, Day two & three, he's doing well, with lots of love and care.  Day four & five ... he's still alive, your hopes soar to the heavens, Day six he slips away again, dies in your hands day seven.  You take this little angel, and bury him alone, With aching heart and burning tears, and an exhausted groan, You ask yourself "Why do this? ... why suffer all this pain?".  But see the joy your kittens bring... it really self explains.  So, when you think of breeders and label them with "greed", Think about what they endure to fill anothers need.  When you buy a kitten and with your precious dollars part, You only pay with money ... we pay with our heart.  ...

Thank you Denise & Alan, the proud parents of 3 of ATopCat's RagaMuffins, for this lovely poem and the inspiration to keep going and not give up...


 

Adoption Info


 


 



  • Adoption fees range from $900-1100



  • Kittens will generally be available to be picked up at 12 to 14 weeksPlease see this link why we wait.

  • If you wish to reserve a kitten, a non-refundable $200 deposit will be required.  PLEASE REMEMBER-All kittens are considered available until a deposit is placed for your chosen kitten.  A deposit may also be made to hold a place in line from any available litter.  Example: 1st deposit gets pick of the litter, 2nd deposit gets 2nd choice, 3rd deposit gets 3rd choice etc. (Please be aware that from time to time we do hold back a kitten or kittens from any litter that we are considering as a future Queen or King and they will not be available for choosing from that litter)

  • Shipping within the US (excluding Hawaii) is available upon request. The fees for this service range between $200-$300.  Shipping fees are paid by the buyer

  •     Shots will be up to date at the time of pick-up/delivery.

  • A registration application for the ACFA will be provided once proof of altering has been supplied. 

  • We provide a 1 year written health guarantee against genetic diseases only. This states that if your kitten should die within the stated period as a result of a genetic health defect we will replace it with another kitten of equal quality as available

  •      NO CASH REFUNDS

  • In order to try to assure that our kittens are placed in the best possible homes we do screen prospective buyers.  Prospective buyers will be asked to complete a questionnaire with relevant questions and we fully encourage buyers to ask questions of us as well

  • These kittens are raised as a part of our family and in our hearts they continue to be such even after they are adopted.  For this reason, we eagerly look forward to updates and photos when available so that we can share in their continued growth. We are always available to answer any questions regarding your new kitten.

  • If for any reason the adopter can no longer care for the kitten we ask that the kitten be returned to us so that we may find him/her a suitable new home.  NEVER ABANDON THEM TO A SHELTER!

  • We DO NOT allow our kittens to be de-clawed.  If you do not feel you can clip the kittens nails or have scratching posts available for your kitten then we will not sell our kittens to you

  • We also DO NOT allow our kittens outside.  Cats can live much happier and healthier lives inside.  This is even more important with this breed of cat.  Because RagaMuffins have been bred for their fabulous personalities they simply do not have the survival instincts to survive in the outdoors for long

  • All buyers must sign a contract agreeing to these terms.

  • We reserve the right to decline any person's adoption application at our sole discretion.
