Breeding
​
Our RagaMuffin Sires, Dams, and kittens receive the best in environment, nutrition,
and socialization so they are happy and healthy.
Our Dams are examined by our vet before litters are planned and have no more than 2 litters per 3 years.
When the "time" is close we spend days preparing "maternity suites" and sleepless nights on "kitten watch". We are present for the birth to offer love, and support in whatever capacity the
mother cat and kittens need.
Measures are taken so Sire can socialize daily with cat and people family -except when busy in the "Honeymoon Suite".
Housing
​
Our RagaMuffin cats are FAMILY cats!
While we do have a dedicated cattery room with spacious, sunlit, enclosures for the occasions that having the run of the house is not a good option, our cats are where ever we are during the day and sleep with us at night.
Our Cattery and home are kept clean and safe, to help prevent illness and injury to our cats/kittens,
AND so Boutique Ragamuffins is a place we can be proud.
Nutrition
We feed a vet approved customized diet of premium and organic foods to maximize nutrient intake and absorption
and minimize ingestion/negative impacts of chemicals such as pesticides, preservatives, and additives.
Mothers receive supplemental servings of organic roasted chicken & broth 3-4 times per day while pregnant and nursing.
Kittens are given the same when they are ready for
"big kid food".
This diet optimizes the kittens' development during the most important times growth.
Socialization
​
Love, Interaction, Conditioning, and More Love!
The RagaMuffin kittens and cats of Boutique RagaMuffins experience a family lifestyle
with constant interaction through; play, snuggling, love, and just hanging out with our family.
Additionally, we purposefully introduce the kittens to many different things they may encounter later in life so they will know that these things are ok and not to be afraid.
Sounds, kids, dogs, other cats, carriers, car rides, nail clipping, exam handling are just a few examples.
Adoption Process
​When a family is matched with a kitten or cat, we want to make it OFFICIAL! So an Agreement with the family and kitty details is sent, signed, and returned with a non-refundable deposit to reserve the kitten and is applied to the total adoption fee. A separate agreement outlining the responsibilities and protections of both parties will also be sent for the family to go over!
Match Making
​
The time we spend with the RagaMuffin kittens allows us to get to know them what family situation would be best.
We will spend time speaking with you to get to know you
and which kitten has the matching personality.
We would rather pass on a sale than match a family with a Muffin that doesn't fit their needs.
Let us help you to find the perfect kitten for your family!
Delivery/Pick up
You are never too far away to adopt a Boutique RagaMuffin kitten or cat! We offer in cabin escort and delivery in the USA for the cost of the plane ticket.
We do not use cargo or couriers to maximize safety and minimize stress to the little ones as they leave their mom
and brothers and sisters and experience so many new things. Another, and very economical option is
for families to fly in and pickup their kitten!
For RagaMuffin Catteries
We are open to conservative, thoughtful sharing our lines for the benefit of improving the breed, with qualified RagaMuffin catteries that are like minded and belong with similar care requirements, cattery practices, Code of Ethics, contract,
and personal and professional integrity.
