Our goal at La Chatterie Pointes Noires is quality and not quantity. We aim to provide you with a quality pet that you can enjoy for years to come. We are TICA and REER registered.
We have recently added to our family. We raise our Highland Lynx cats and kittens in a loving environment, they are not in cages. They roam around the house free and are often seen playing with our dog. We are raising our Highland lynx breed simply because we love the breed and feel the need to share them with others.
The colors vary from litter to litter and we cannot guarantee what color kitten will be born. We will do our best to pair you with the kitten and color of your choice. We do take reservations only after a litter has been born. We can keep your name on file and contact you if a kitten becomes available. The leopard pattern is a spotted tabby pattern. It is marked by spots of the darker color, more prominent on either side of the body and the belly. The spots may vary in size and shape, but tend be evenly distributed. Preference is given to rosette spots which are formed by a part-circle of spots around a distinctly lighter center. Contrast with ground color may not be as distinct as in some spotted breeds . A dorsal stripe runs the length of the body to the tip of the tail. The stripe is ideally composed of spots. The markings on the face and forehead are typical tabby markings (spider like), with the underside of the body having distinct spots. Legs and tail are barred. In the sepia, mink, and snow subdivisions, it is desirable for ghost leopard spots (very light spots) to appear on the bodies.
The tawny pattern is a ticked tabby pattern marked by ticking on the body hair with various shades of the marking color and ground color, with the outer tipping being the darkest and the undercoat being the ground color. The body may exhibit a barely perceptible spotted pattern. The tail, legs, and face will have tabby pencilings. Necklace tracings will are also frequently seen.
The clouded leopard pattern, while derived from modifications to the classic tabby gene, is different from the classic tabby pattern, with as little bull's eye similarities possible. The pattern gives the impression of marble, preferably with a horizontal flow. Vertical stripes are undesirable. Contrast should be good, with distinct shapes and sharp edges. The belly must be spotted.
Each of our Highland lynx cat's health is guaranteed and each will be spayed or neutered prior to leaving for their new home. They will also have had their first set of vaccinations (and be dewormed). We have also ensured that each of our Highland lynx kittens are fully house trained. A small starter kit will be given prior to their leaving. We suggest you keep with the same food, we feed our kittens and cats "Royal Canin" available at any veterinarian's office or local pet store.
The cost of each Highland Lynx kitten depends of their coats and markings, however, they vary between $450 and $800 dollars per kitten. We retire our older females that have had approximately 3 to 4 litters to ensure that they also have a quality of life. Older "retirerees" are available so if a kitten isn't for you maybe an older cat is. Feel free to ask (some have even been declawed).
A special thank you to Sophie Tremblay who has entrusted us with her precious females. We love and appreciate them. Another, BIG thank you to your loving vet Dre. Nathalie Tremblay who cares snd treats our little ones.
Our girls, Bella and Myley (the yellow labrador). They have played together since we brought Bella home.
