Pedigreed Scottish Fold & Straight Kittens
CHESHIRE MANOR CATTERY
We're a unique network of several small home-based cage-free Scottish Fold and Straight catteries. Our flagship location is in DC area and 3 in Russia. All locations strictly follow TICA ethical rules.
how it started
Get to know us what inspires us every day! We love cats! After we couldn't find a Scottish or British Shorthair healthy kitten for our daughter in shelters and got scammed online while trying to buy one, we looked for reputable breeders near us. Unfortunately, they all had waiting lists months in advance! We found our kittens in Russia and became friends with our wonderful breeder, and then some more! So, this is how this adventure has started, and the rest is history!
Overtime, we expended our network and now partner with three amazing small home catteries in Russia that strictly follow TICA ethical guidelines, just like our own family home cattery in Northern Virginia. Our cats and kittens are never caged. They live and sleep with us and are treated as family members, and as a result, our kittens are well socialized and are not skittish. We heard comments like, "we had no idea that cats can behave like that and be that friendly!"
We have Scottish Fold and Scottish Straight kittens. Our kittens' health and well-being is our top priority, always! We never ever breed a Scottish Fold with a Scottish Fold! To ensure that our litters are healthy, they get all the recommended vaccinations, including rabies, have been dewormed several times, microchiped and sterilized by the time they leave us. Our pets are never caged and are raised in a healthy, loving environment. They're strictly indoor cats.
We hope that you'd take a moment to drop us a line if you have any questions. Email is the best way to reach us: contact@cheshiremanor.com Thank you!
About Us

Bloodlines
Our parent cats can trace their ancestry for generations and either hold champion titles or their ancestors do.
And with pedigreed cat you know what you're getting in terms of a temperament. Scottish Fold and Straight cats have a quiet, friendly, yet playful disposition. They are not high energy cats and won't demand your constant attention. Scottish cats can be left alone at home during the day, although it's best that you have more than one cat of similar age at home in this case.
They also tend to be very adaptable and get along well with other cats and dogs.
TICA

We strictly follow TICA, The International Cat Association, ethical standards. Our kittens come with TICA pedigree or WCF pedigree, which we will convert to a TICA pedigree for free upon your request. TICA has the largest pedigree registry in the world.
They're kept strictly indoors, and we require adopters to continue that in our contract. We also either alter the kittens before they leave us or you're required to do so, depending on their age. We don't use cages in either of our locations, so the kittens are socialized with our families from the very start so that they're not skittish around humans and form a loving relationship with you.
We screen all potential forever homes before accepting your deposit to ensure well-being of our kittens.

All our kittens are the result of a Scottish Fold + Scottish Straight or Scottish Straight + Scottish Straight or Scottish Fold or Straight + British Shorthair pairings. Out of an abundance of caution, all our breeding females are either Scottish Straight or British cats who have regular, not folded, ears.
British Shorthair pairing is an allowable outcross by TICA's breed standards for Scottish Fold and Scottish Straight kittens. This is how we guard against an accidental Fold-to-Fold breeding that would result in kittens having two mutated alleles that could put their health at risk.
Our breeding cats located in the USA are genetically tested against several dozens of DNA defects Optimal Selection Wisdom Panel Lab Services that checks for 50+ genetic mutations. The test set includes PKD, or Polycystic Kidney Disease, which is unfortunately prevalent in Scottish cats.
Kittens' parents DNA reports are available upon request and will be posted on the website in the future when we create "Our Cats" webpage.
It's worth stating explicitly that we do not breed cats with any genetic defects that we're aware of. The only exception is the presence of one mutated allele* in the FD gene that all Scottish Fold cats have. We don't breed cats that have two mutated alleles in the FD gene.
* An allele is a component of a gene and is commonly referred to as "one copy of a gene" or "two copies of a gene."
Health of our kittens is our highest priority, and we provide a health guarantee and congenital defects warranty as outlined in our contract.
Kittens born in the US go home with a free no-obligation 30-days health insurance coverage from Trupanion without waiting periods for illness and accidents. The insurance offer has to be activated by the new owners using a code that we'll provide on the day of the adoption or the day before.
