Everything you need to know before you begin
The process, step by step
From your first enquiry to the day your kitten comes home, we guide you through every step with care, transparency and regular updates — so you always know what to expect.
Join the Kitten Update List
Join our Kitten Update List and wait to hear of a litter announcement — that's when applications open. It's the first step toward bringing a Cattuna kitten home.
Litter confirmed
Once a litter arrives and the queen and kittens are settled, we contact families on the update list personally to invite applications, sharing regular photo and video updates as the kittens grow.
Introduction
Suitable families are invited to a FaceTime call to meet the available kittens and select their preferred feline friend. At this point a $500 deposit is requested to confirm your reservation, and the kitten is reserved exclusively for your family.
Updates
Once a kitten is secured, families receive regular photos and video updates as their kitten grows, shared on our social media, along with helpful information about feeding, litter and preparing the home.
Collection
Kittens are not collected from our home. We arrange safe air travel for kittens to destinations throughout Australia, and may offer personal delivery to selected locations by prior arrangement. Every kitten travelling by air is provided with a new, secure, airline-approved travel crate. Interstate transport is booked through Nataline and costs vary by area.
Clear terms, no surprises
Deposits are non-refundable if the purchaser changes their mind, their circumstances change, or they're otherwise unable to proceed. Families are responsible for completing checks (landlord, family or body corporate approval) before paying a deposit.
We take this approach so that we can confidently reserve a kitten exclusively for your family and decline other interested homes — a commitment we take seriously on both sides.
Balance terms are discussed individually and can be paid on pickup.
Colours & pricing
Our pricing reflects the care, health testing and time that goes into raising each kitten. Kittens are placed as much-loved family companions and are not sold for showing or breeding unless clearly stated. No show or breeding homes are currently accepted.
Common questions
Do you offer interstate delivery?
Yes — we arrange safe interstate air travel to approved families throughout Australia (no road-based pet transport companies). Costs vary by destination and are quoted individually. Every kitten travels in a new, pet-safe travel crate at no extra cost.
Can prospective families visit?
To protect the health, safety and privacy of our cats and kittens, we don't offer in-person cattery visits. Prospective families are welcome to arrange a FaceTime call instead.
At what age are kittens desexed?
From 12+ weeks of age, following our vet's recommendation based on each kitten's age, weight and development.
How does your waitlist work?
Contact us to discuss your preferred colour, coat length and gender. After an initial phone or FaceTime conversation, a waitlist deposit secures your place. Families are contacted in deposit order as suitable kittens become available. Specific colours or genders can't be guaranteed before a litter arrives; deposits are non-refundable but apply toward your kitten's final price.
What colours and coat types do you breed?
British Shorthair and British Longhair kittens in blue, black, bi-colour and colourpoint (striking blue eyes), plus occasional special colours. From 2027: black silver tabbies and lilac.
Are kittens registered?
Yes, with ANCATS.
