Purebred Kitties made the adoption process so easy. I never felt like I was in the dark at any point, which I found so helpful. Alona was genuine, kind, and answered all of my questions in a timely manor. I really appreciate everyone's help in bringing our new baby home, he's loved so much already!

I am so impressed! Instant clarification, communication, compassion. Video calls offered to assure that this company is not a scam. Caring consultants connect breeder with buyers making the middle person a fast facilitator of the transaction and steps.

Communication is great. We were able to FaceTime with our baby pay by credit card, and when we want to pick her up, she was exactly as we expected. Only in our house two days and she’s already doing wonderfully with the family! It would be nice if for the cost the pedigree papers were included as many breeders do this the additional cost for these was hundreds of dollars and since she was arriving spayed we didn’t feel the need to pay the additional money. As my title says it’s expensive, but it was worth it the quality And size of this kitten is amazing.

The entire process to get our fluffy bundle of joy was stellar. Maria is super sweet and was so helpful in answering any and all of our questions. I love how the health of the cat is taken seriously throughout the process, ours just came in with some minor sniffles (but were pretty sure that's from traveling through the airport and it was quickly/easily cured). On top of all that, the video call we had to meet our little guy before we bought him was a great way to get an small sneak peak at his personality and reinforce that we were making the right choice. I'm recommending Purebred Kitties to any of my friends looking to get their own Maine Coon.

Just got my second Sphynx from purebred kitties, as my first experience was perfect and without issue. My second experience was just as good as the first. I love both of my cats to death, they have the best personalities, both are healthy, and absolutely adorable.
