About Our British Shorthair Cattery
Welcome to our family-run British Shorthair cattery, where the beauty and charm of this beloved breed truly come to life. My name is Mrs. Celine Browny, and together with my husband, Mr. Karl, we started our cattery in 2015. We raise our kittens in our warm, lively home in North Carolina, where we live with our four children—three boys and one girl—who help give every kitten the gentle attention it needs to grow confident and social.
From the beginning, we committed ourselves to understanding the British Shorthair breed more deeply. Over the years, we have built strong knowledge of their genetics, temperament, and overall well-being, which allows us to maintain excellent breeding standards. Our children also play an active role in daily interactions, which helps the kittens adapt naturally to family environments and develop calm, affectionate personalities.
Moreover, we approach kitten care with dedication and consistency. We provide each kitten with regular veterinary checkups, proper nutrition, early social training, and up-to-date vaccinations. We also perform genetic screenings to ensure strong health. Because our kittens live inside our family home, they receive constant love, structured routines, and plenty of enrichment, which supports both their physical and emotional development.
When you choose a kitten from our cattery, you join a caring family committed to raising healthy, well-adjusted British Shorthair companions. We invite you to explore our cattery and discover how our family-centered approach creates kittens ready to bring warmth, loyalty, and joy into their forever homes.
Meet Your Trusted British Shorthair Breeder
A Cattery That Feels Just Like Home
At our British Shorthair Cattery, we believe that a happy cat is one who feels at home. Our facility is designed to mimic a cozy, natural living environment rather than a traditional kennel. British Shorthair kittens and adults enjoy open spaces with natural sunlight, sturdy scratching posts, engaging toys, climbing structures, and soft beds for napping.
From an early age, our kittens are gently exposed to common household sounds — the hum of a vacuum, the clinking of dishes, and everyday conversations. This early socialization process helps develop their calm, confident temperament, making the transition to their forever homes smooth and stress-free.
Breeding with Purpose, Integrity, and Heart
Breeding British Shorthairs is a responsibility we take very seriously. We adhere to strict ethical breeding practices that put the health, temperament, and longevity of the breed first. We avoid any practices that would encourage exaggerated features or compromise the well-being of our cats.
All of our breeding cats are carefully selected for genetic health, outstanding temperament, and adherence to the British Shorthair breed standard — broad faces, dense plush coats, powerful yet graceful bodies, and that iconic sweet expression. Each breeding decision is made with the goal of enhancing the breed while maintaining its classic beauty and gentle nature.
Prioritizing Health from the Very First Day
The health of our British Shorthair kittens starts long before birth. Every breeding cat undergoes full health screenings for common hereditary conditions such as Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (HCM) and Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD).
Our kittens are vaccinated, dewormed, and microchipped and come with a health guarantee for your peace of mind. Regular veterinary checkups, top-tier nutrition, and a clean, low-stress environment all contribute to raising kittens who are not only beautiful but also strong, resilient, and ready to thrive.
Feeding for Strength, Shine, and Longevity
Proper nutrition is critical for the growth and long-term health of British Shorthair cats, known for their muscular build and luxurious coats. We work closely with feline veterinary nutritionists to create customized feeding plans for each stage of development — from kittenhood to adulthood.
Our cats are fed premium, high-protein diets that support healthy bone development, maintain ideal weight, and keep their dense coats shiny and soft. We also educate our adopters on continuing a proper diet at home to ensure their kitten’s health for years to come.
Support Beyond Adoption: We’re Here for Life
Adopting a British Shorthair kitten from us is just the beginning of a lifelong relationship. We are dedicated to providing ongoing education and support to our extended kitten families.
We offer detailed guides on everything from grooming tips — such as maintaining the British Shorthair’s thick double coat — to best practices for playtime and mental enrichment. Whether you have a question about feeding schedules, behavior training, or introducing your new kitten to other pets, we are always available to help.
