My Catnificent Eleanor (whom I call Ellie) from Catnificent Cattery is ADORABLE, SO GOOD, and just an absolute joy! I picked her up at 14 weeks. Vlada provided me some goodies to get us going, and because of traffic, it took over 4 hours to get home. She slept and just looked around - no crying, no problems. She is 7 months old today (10/19/25), and is PRECIOUS. I am NOT a cat person - I am a dog person, but I have fallen hard for my Ellie. We experienced ZERO of the horror stories I have heard about kittens and cats. No accidents - she was already litter box trained. No scratching on furniture - she was scratch post trained but she's not really a big scratcher. She has the sweetest meow when she wants something, but it's never annoying or too often. She loves going "outside" (on a leash of course - she is completely an indoor cat) where we go to the mailbox and I brush her. She loves going "bye bye" in her cat backpack - she travels beautifully. Not once has she bitten or scratched - not even accidentally. She is definitely not a lap cat - she will not even sit in my lap for a moment, but she loves being held and kissed and snuggled as I am walking around. She likes to be near us, but she is never overbearing or clingy. A funny quirk: she is very hot natured - she loves being cool so she sits in front of air vents sometimes and has no interest in being anywhere near or on a blanket. Thank goodness we have hardwood and ceramic tile flooring for her! I have taught her to sit and come. And her favorite play includes wand toys and those little 1 inch pom balls. She loves chasing them all around the house, and she even brings them back to me to throw again. Also, Vlada was excellent to work with. And, my Ellie is perfectly healthy. We had her spayed last month and she recovered wonderfully. read more

We cannot say enough good things about Catnificent Cattery and our sweet British Shorthair they brought into the world. My husband and I brought home our kitten in May of 2023 at just over three months old, and our lives changed for the best. He is the friendliest, sweetest, and cutest cat my husband and I, as well as our friends, family, and vet have ever seen. Both of us grew up with cats, but this one is different -- all in the best ways! He loves to play, cuddle, and socialize with our guests. He has so much personality for such a small creature! We are constantly laughing at his antics. Vlada was so easy to work with, communicative, prepped us for bringing him home well, and has been a joy to stay in touch with over the years. We can't imagine our lives without our sweet boy and are grateful to Catnificent Cattery! We felt the adoption process was professional, safe and healthy for the kitten and us, and have been honored to raise him and make him part of our family. read more

I have been looking for another kitten for years and Catnificent Cattery came like a blessing from the universe. I have had Catnificent Quantum for about three weeks now and he is the most adorable little man. He has no problem with my other two cats or our family puppy and is full of energy. I believe Jackson Galaxy would call him a mojito cat! He is both confident and easy going. Vlada was extremely nice, lovely to speak with, and an effective and prompt communicator! Overall I had a very enjoyable experience. Their cats come with a little health passport, which is very cute and convenient to have. Vlada was transparent about how she cares for the cats and gave a very thorough guide for preparation and care. I am extremely pleased that I went with Catnificent Cattery. read more

We are soooo happy to have 'Ever' from Catnificent Cattery. He loves hanging out with his hooman all the time, and he enjoy being touched: belly, head, tail, everywhere. It's easy to trim his nails, take bath, and his litter behavior is well trained before coming to our home. Ever is such a perfect kitten for us, as a first time cat owner. Customer service is wonderful. They always answer my questions and concerns quickly and with great patience. Before having Ever, the paperwork was well done and his immunization is up to date. I also appreciated that they gave me lots of helpful information regarding insurance, food choices, health care and so on. read more

I had cats when I was little and always wanted to get a cat as an adult when the right time comes. I didn't want to settle for just some cat though, my cat had to be very friendly and, of course, gorgeous After some research, I found out that there was a British Shorthair cattery nearby. After exchanging a few messages with Catnificent, the owner offered us to visit, so we could see the potential parents in person. Seeing the cats in person confirmed that we wanted to have a kitten from this breeder. We liked the fact that the cats lived in a house, the environment was clean and comfortable for them. You could tell that they are loved and cared for. The owner was very friendly and gave us a lot of tips of how to prepare the home for a kitten. That was really valuable because there were certain things I didn't think about right away. For example, a water fountain that helps cats drink more water and stay hydrated! We joined the waitlist and after a couple months got our baby Rachel was already litter box trained and all the vaccinations for the year were complete. I still exchange messages with them when I have questions and they are always respond very quickly! I'm so happy we got a kitten from this breeder, we are considering having another one and I know we'll get it from them! read more

Do not buy from this Cattery unless you want a sick kitten. Go elsewhere for a healthy companion.

I had a very bad experience with this breeder. The cat was beautiful but infected with Giardia. I paid lots of money trying to get him well. They state in contract that they sell cats without parasites. The cat had diarrhea from day one. I brought it to them to see if they could get him well and they didn't. I got the cat back after four weeks and he had worse diarrhea than ever. I had him tested and he came back positive for Giardia. I asked to get the cat back so I could treat him and they say let me think about it. Then that say yes you can get cat back but sign a paper that they aren't responsible. They didn't want the cat to be well but to sell it to another family and make 900.00 off of them. They did not give me a full refund. Buyer beware have the animal fully tested for parasites as I have never seen such poor care of their animals. I have documentation of all that went on and I don't want to see any other person lose their money for a cat that had diarrhea from the first day. This cat has been returned already and I was told it was due to apartment not allowing cats then when everything went down the other lady says oh it was because of allergies and they took over 1000.00 from them. Giardia comes from uncleanliness. So have your kittens tested at least twice if buying from this breeder! read more

My wife and I visited Catnificent Cattery a few weeks back. It was really convenient that they are located in DC metro area, so it was a short drive. I was initially skeptical regarding the whole idea of getting a kitten. We don't spend a lot of time at home and didn't want the cat to be lonely. My wife researched this breed (British Shorthair) and thought that their laid-back personality would work for us. We were lucky to visit when they had some kittens around! I fell in love with the little jumpy balls of fur. I've never expected them to be this cute since my family only adopted adult cats before. Joined the waitlist and hoping to have our perfect kitten when the time comes. read more

After doing so much research, and bypassing all the scams, my partner and I are grateful to come upon Catinificent Cattery. We communicated with Vlada. She was precise with details, proficient, and prompt. We are satisfied with our overall experience. We are blessed to have two kittens from Catnificent Cattery. Whenever I have any questions, Vlada was prepared with answers. I appreciate her going over health insurance coverage in depth with me when she has the time, and providing a recommendation for Vet care and spay/neuter facility.Vlada is flexible with her schedule to bring the kitties over to our place to complete the paperwork. During her visit, she brought a bag of items such as their comfort toy, some dry food, and some catnip. Aside from that, on a separate bag has a health insurance pamphlet, a copy of our paperwork, a little health passport, and an awesome book called, "How to Tell If Your Cat Is Plotting to Kill You." It's hilarious, and offers themed in comic strips, facts, and guides about crazy cat behaviors. Again, thank you Vlada for all the continued advice and support. Highly recommended Catnificent Cattery for anyone looking to home the beautiful kittens they have. read more
