Furrytail Cattery is a reputable business operated by two dedicated hobby breeders, Emily and Sophie, located in the Ryde and Hills areas of Sydney. As proud members of ANCATS #14072, they specialize in breeding high-quality British Shorthair cats with a focus on solid blue, lilac, cream, bicolours, torties, and golden shaded varieties. The cattery is home to a select group of female cats, each provided with their own dedicated spaces for nurturing, breeding, and quarantine purposes. Male cats, known as studs, are kept separate to prevent unwanted breeding and maintain a harmonious environment.
At Furrytail Cattery, the health and well-being of their cats are top priorities. All breeding cats undergo rigorous DNA testing to ensure they are free from genetic disorders such as PKD (polycystic kidney disease). Regular heart ultrasound checks for HCM (hypertrophic cardiomyopathy) are also conducted to safeguard the lineage’s health. The cats are raised indoors in a loving environment, socialized from a young age, and fed a balanced diet that includes raw and high-quality dry food options. The breeders work closely with experienced veterinarians and maintain pet insurance to address any health concerns promptly.
Prospective families interested in adopting a Furrytail kitten can expect a thorough screening process to ensure responsible pet ownership. The cattery’s commitment to placing kittens in suitable homes is evident in their selective approach to inquiries. For those looking to stay informed about available kittens and breeding plans, the Furrytail Cattery website offers detailed information and resources. Emily and Sophie’s dedication to breeding healthy, well-socialized British Shorthair cats reflects their passion for maintaining strong, genetically sound feline companions.
