Family-Run for Three Generations

Home & Hearth is a three-generation, family-run cattery with nearly 25 years of experience breeding British Shorthair kittens from champion bloodlines. We are trained in attachment therapy techniques, and we rely on this training to raise beautifully socialized kittens who exude confidence, affection, and emotional resilience.

We live in Portland, Oregon, and, if you’re local, we would like to invite you to visit and meet our kittens in person. However, we also like to travel with our kittens, and we pride ourselves on being able to serve the entire US. Our kittens always fly with a human companion in the cabin, and we find ways to make that option affordable. Our policy is to charge less for personal delivery than you would expect to pay for shipping!
