I take great pride in selecting the cats for breeding that are close to Breed Standard as I can possibly find. Maintaining the integrity and great beauty of this breed is very important to me. That’s what you, the pet owner tends to focus on the most. Behind the scenes, however, you’ll feel confident knowing that as your breeder, I’m researching the bloodlines [Pedigrees], the health history, and genetically testing every single cat that is used in my breeding program.
Are you considering other breeders to get your Maine Coon Kitten from? Here’s a helpful checklist on How to Choose the Best Maine Coon Breeder.
If you’re price shopping for the cheapest kitten, then a Sassy Koonz kitten probably isn’t your best option. There are certainly other breeders who sell their kittens for less. If you’re looking for the highest quality, most beautiful, well socialized, happiest, classiest – and sassiest kitten around, then you’ll probably want to become an Approved Guardian and take the next steps!
Our Kittens come with a Five Year Health Promise and Guarantee
NOTICE: If you’re interested in a Sassy Koonz Maine Coon Kitten, the best way to get notified about available kittens is to be on our Approved Guardians list. Our kittens are never made available to the public in a random fashion.
Sassy Koonz does not have a “waiting list”. Everyone has the same opportunity to reserve a kitten as long as you’re an Approved Guardian. No deposits are taken in advance, only at the time of reservation. Any kittens that are available will be listed as AVAILABLE on the Maine Coon Kittens page.
The Maine Coon Adoption Process
STEP # 1 -Become a Pre-Approved Future Guardian – This is the first step in the Sassy Koonz adoption process. No one will be notified about available kittens or considered for a kitten without an approved application.
If you’re approved, you’ll receive a username and password that will allow you to login to the Sassy Koonz website and view Exclusive Approved Guardian content only. You’ll also have the option to receive instant text message notifications so that you’re notified as soon as a kitten is made available.
STEP # 2 – Keep your eyes on the Maine Coon Kittens Page. The process will typically be the following (but is subject to change)
(INITIAL PICKS) Sassy Koonz reserves the right to reserve any kitten at any time to anyone without offering it to the public first. There are several people that get to choose a kitten FIRST [Me, Other Breeders, Hand Picked Guardians, and Anyone who already has one of my kittens and wants to reserve another one]. This means that you may see a kitten on the website, and it never becomes available. It goes directly from “Not Available Yet” to a “Reserved” status.
- Photos will be posted of the kittens and they will have a status of “NOT AVAILABLE YET”. Photos will be updated bi-weekly on the website and on our Facebook Page.
- After the initial kitten picks are complete, any remaining kittens will become available. Once a date is determined that the kitten is available, the date will be posted on the website (on the kitten’s profile page)
- Once the kitten is ready to reserve, a text message will be sent to Approved Guardians notifying that the kitten is open for reservation.
*You can also watch for photo updates on our Facebook page. Click the “Show First” rule in Facebook so that you don’t miss new photos of the kittens.
Once I know, the actual date that the kitten will be open for reservation will be posted on his/her profile page a day or two ahead of time.
STEP # 3: Pick your Favorite Sassy Koonz Kitten. When the kitten is available for reservation, the status will change on the website and you will use your username and password to log in and reserve your kitten with a Non-Refundable Deposit equal to 50% of the price of the kitten. The kittens will be reserved on a first-come, first-serve basis.
While you are waiting for your new kitten to come home, you’ll receive weekly photos updates and videos so that you can watch your kitten grow, develop, and become the gorgeous Maine Coon that you’ve been dreaming of!
STEP # 4 – Arrange Delivery/Pickup of Your Kitten. Once the kitten has earned his/her health certificate from the veterinarian, we will arrange for delivery or pickup of your kitten to go home when he/she is 11-12 weeks old. There are several options available about how to get your kitten when it’s time for him/her to come home. Read the information on this page about Delivery options.
NOTE: This process does not apply to breeders. If you’re interested in a kitten with breeding rights, please contact me and we’ll discuss further. 🙂
