Single Kitten Syndrome
We believe in prioritising the wellbeing and social development of our kittens. This policy requires that kittens under 10 months of age be adopted in pairs, with a littermate, or into a home that already includes a friendly resident cat.
This policy is rooted in our understanding of "single kitten syndrome." Kittens raised without feline companionship are more likely to face behavioural and socialisation challenges as they grow.
Understanding "Single Kitten Syndrome"
Kittens, particularly those under 10 months old, are highly social animals. They thrive when they have feline companions to interact with and learn from. When kittens are raised without feline companionship, they are more likely to develop behavioural issues, including excessive attachment to owners, demanding behaviour, and an increased risk of developing destructive habits due to a lack of social interaction with their own species.
The benefits of feline companionship
When kittens have a feline friend to interact with, they naturally learn vital social and communication skills essential for their wellbeing, resulting in a better adjustment to adulthood, increased happiness, and the development of healthier and more harmonious relationships with their human families.
Our commitment to young kittens
Our "No Single Kitten" policy aims to ensure that our kittens acquire essential social skills and build lasting feline friendships. By adopting kittens in pairs or introducing them to households with resident cats, we create an environment that promotes their overall happiness and balanced development.
Join us in this endeavour
