Adoption Process
Thank you for your interest in adopting one of our European Maine Coon kittens! We take pride in raising healthy, well-socialized kittens and placing them in loving, permanent homes.
Our Adoption Process is simple, transparent, and focused on creating the best match between a kitten and its future family.
How our Adoption Process Works
First-Come Adoption (No Traditional Waitlist)
Kittens are adopted on a first-come basis once they become available. Submission of an application does not reserve a kitten nor place you in a traditional waitlist.
When kittens are evaluated and marked as Available, approved applicants are contacted in the order their confirmed interest is received for the available kittens.
Step-by-Step Adoption Overview
1. Apply for Adoption
Complete the Adoption Application. Approved applicants will be contacted and invited to review kittens once they are available.
👉 Application approval does not reserve a kitten — it simply qualifies you to participate when kittens are available.
2. Availability Announcement
Once a litter is evaluated and ready, kittens will be announced as:
-
Available for Adoption
-
Under Evaluation
-
Reserved
Only kittens marked “Available for Adoption” are open for selection.
3. First-Come Adoption Selection
Approved applicants will be notified via text/email with photos and details of available kittens.
You will have 24 hours to respond with your interest in a kitten. The first confirmed applicant to respond for each available kitten will have priority in placement.
4. Adoption Deposit
Once you confirm your selection:
-
A non-refundable adoption deposit (20% of the remaining balance) is due within 24 hours to hold your kitten.
-
This deposit secures your selection and marks the kitten as Reserved.
Priority Consideration
While we do not use a traditional paid waitlist system, priority consideration may be given to:
-
Returning families
-
Established partner homes
-
Homes with previous adoption history
Priority consideration allows earlier notification but does not guarantee selection of a specific kitten, color, or gender.
Communication & Timing
You will receive:
-
Updated photos every 7–10 days while kittens are growing
-
A text or email when kittens are ready for viewing
If you do not respond within 24 hours of a kitten availability notification, the kitten may be offered to other approved applicants.
Final Notes
-
We do not accept deposits to simply “hold a place in line.”
-
Adoption deposits are only accepted after a kitten is selected.
-
Adoption deposits are non-refundable but applied toward the final adoption price.

Kitten Pricing & Placement
Our European Maine Coon kittens are priced individually based on pedigree, structure, size, color, and special traits such as polydactyl paws or unique eye color.
Pet-quality kittens typically range from $3,500 – $5,500.
Kittens with rare traits or breeding/show potential are priced individually.
Pricing reflects the quality of our European lines, extensive health testing, exceptional socialization, and lifetime breeder support.
Final pricing is discussed after application review to ensure the best match for both kitten and family.
Submitting an application does not reserve a kitten.
