For 25+ years, Indra’s Net Maine Coon Cattery has been dedicated to breeding The Maine Coon Cat - America’s original breed. Maine Coon Cats are truly the gentle giant of the cat world, (and the official mascot of the State of Maine), and deserve their status and place in the American history books.

We are a small cattery in Northern California. I plan one or two litters a year, and place kittens in families by temperament fit, ‘not-first come first served’. As a small ‘hobby’ breeder, health, temperament, and structure have been top priorities.

Our Approach

Health Testing:

  • DNA screening: HCM (MYBPC3), SMA, PK Def, DBA

  • Cardiac echocardiograms on schedule with a board cerified cardiologist

  • Routine exams, fecal tests, FeL/FIV, age appropriate vaccines

Pedigree and Transparency:

  • Registered pedigrees, and parents verifiable by parentage tests

  • Copies of parents’ screening in kitten packet

Raising Kittens:

  • Home raised, cage-free environment, socialized and handled every day

  • Kittens leave between 14 - 16 weeks with microchip, vaccinations, written contract, and support

Lifetime Commitment:

  • I place kittens by fit, not ‘first-come’

  • Lifetime return-to-breeder support

I will not:

  • Early release kittens (kittens leave when kittens are well socialized, between 14-16 wks).

  • Breed for exaggerated features (big ear tufts, big fat cheeks, and exaggerated size actually HURT the health and longevity of the MCO).

  • Have a “Guardian” or “Foster Out” home to produce more kittens (quality over quantity is the always the aim).
