Kittens

As a matter of choice, each year very few kittens are born in my cattery.
It is of fundamental importance for me to know that the kittens are
adoptedby persons whom I can trust wholeheartedly. By only allowing a few
kittens to be born I can becertain that I find a suitable home for each of them.
I prefer to know personally the person who adopts one of my Devons and that
is why I prefer not to ship them unaccompanied, whether in Italy or abroad.
Anyone wanting to adopt a little Devon must be able to answer many questions and agree to
somethingthat for me is fundamental: the cat should never be allowed to roam freely outdoors.

Devons are very trusting and friendly: roaming freely around would expose
them to a number of risks. Moreover, cats who live outdoors are exposed to serious
and incurable illnesses such as leukemia, feline AIDS, infectious peritonitis; allowing a cat to
come into contact with other infected cats would be placing its life in serious danger.
This is one of the reasons why I prefer to entrust my Devons only to those persons
who will guarantee that they live indoors.

Kittens are given to their new "parents" only when I am certain they have reached
a certain level of independence and maturity (physical and emotional):
this generally does not occur prior to three and a half months (and in some cases, four).
The kitten will be given all that it will need for the first few days in its new home,
the relevant vaccinations, the pedigreed (TICA or ANFI/FIFe), ownership papers.
I will also be available for any assistance or advice to guarantee that the kitten
has no difficulty in adapting to its new environment.
