Welcome to Our World of Silver Abyssinians

At the heart of our breeding program is a commitment to showcasing the rare and elegant beauty of silver-coloured Abyssinian cats. While we continue to breed the classic ruddy variety and occasionally explore diluted hues, our true passion lies in the captivating silver coat—each strand ticked with a cool-toned shimmer that reflects light and grace.

These sophisticated cats stand apart from their more commonly seen counterparts, drawing admiration from breed enthusiasts and discerning prospective owners alike. With their striking appearance and gentle temperament, silver Abyssinians offer a unique blend of refinement and charm that’s truly unforgettable.

Whether you’re a seasoned Abyssinian lover or discovering the breed for the first time, we invite you to explore our exceptional felines and find the one that speaks to your soul.

Questions

FAQ

1. Do you offer any health guarantees for your kittens?

Yes, absolutely. All our kittens come health-checked by a licensed vet, microchipped, and are treated for fleas and worms. Our breeding cats are also tested for common genetic conditions like Progressive Retinal Atrophy (rdAc) and Pyruvate Kinase Deficiency (PKDef).

2. When can I take my kitten home?

Kittens are typically ready to leave for their new homes at around 13–14 weeks of age, once they are well-socialised, weaned, and have received the appropriate vet care. We do not rush this process as early development is crucial for a happy, confident cat.

3. Do you ship or deliver kittens?

We do not ship kittens via cargo. However, we are happy to discuss personal delivery options within the UK, or you may visit us in Essex to collect your kitten in person. Meeting your new companion is a special moment, and we want it to be safe and stress-free for both of you.

4. What food do you recommend for your kittens?

Our cats and kittens are raised on a high-protein diet, including premium raw and canned foods. We’ll provide you with detailed feeding recommendations, preferred brands, and transition tips when your kitten goes home with you.

5. Will I receive ongoing support after adopting a kitten?

Absolutely. We offer lifetime breeder support. Whether you have a small question or need help with a more serious concern, we’re just a message away. We’re always happy to guide you or connect you with trusted professionals when needed.
