Buying a British Shorthair in Fort Worth
The part Fort Worth buyers actually want answered is what protects them, given that most of them will never stand in our house. So, plainly: every kitten leaves with a written one-year genetic health guarantee and a veterinary health certificate issued before it travels. We ask you to see your own vet within 72 hours of homecoming, and that visit is what keeps the guarantee valid. It exists so an independent vet, not us, is the one who tells you the kitten is sound.
If something is found wrong, the guarantee is a document you can read before you pay, not a promise made on the phone. Ask for it early. Any breeder who won't send you the contract until after the deposit has cleared is telling you something, and it isn't good.
What happens if something is wrong with the kitten after we get it home?
Call Canan first, whatever it is. The written guarantee covers congenital and genetic defects for one year, and it stays valid as long as you had the kitten examined by your own vet within 72 hours of homecoming. For anything short of that — a kitten that won't settle, a litter tray problem, a question about food — she'd still rather you rang. Support doesn't stop when the kitten reaches Fort Worth.

Questions from Fort Worth buyers

How do I reserve a British Shorthair kitten?
Fill in the reservation form on this site and you'll immediately get a customer number on screen: something like HCM-2607-4H2K. Canan then calls or emails you within 24 hours to talk through which kitten suits your household. If it's a good fit, a deposit of half the kitten's price holds that specific kitten, and the remaining half is due when it goes home. You do not need Instagram or any social media account to reserve; phone and email work perfectly well.
How much do your kittens cost?
Pet kittens generally run between $2,200 and $4,500. Price is set per kitten on three things: its color, its exact color code on the pedigree, and its type — modern, baby face, bear face or classic. Traditional blues sit at the lower end. Golden shaded and golden chinchilla sit above them. Our lilac and pink coats sit at the top, because very few of them exist anywhere. Every listed kitten shows its own price. Breeding rights are priced separately and are only ever sold to established, registered catteries.
What health testing do the parents have?
Every breeding cat is FIV and FeLV negative and has regular veterinary examinations. Genetic and cardiac testing such as PKD and HCM is done where a line calls for it rather than on a fixed schedule for every cat, so those results are not issued automatically with every kitten. Ask us about a specific kitten's mother and father and we will tell you exactly what has been done for those two cats and send you whatever records exist, before you pay anything. We would rather tell you where the paperwork stops than imply there is more of it than there is.
How old are kittens when they go home?
Between eight and twelve weeks. There is no fixed date, and that is deliberate: Canan decides each kitten's homecoming individually based on how it is nursing and how its growth and development are coming along. A kitten that is fully weaned, eating well and thriving at nine weeks is ready at nine weeks. A littermate that is still leaning on its mother goes home later, whatever the calendar or the buyer says. Twenty years of litters is what makes that judgement worth more than a rule.
Do you deliver, and how far?
Pickup in Houston is free. Ground delivery by car covers all of Texas. Canan drives the kitten herself rather than using a courier. For the rest of the United States your kitten flies in-cabin with a professional pet nanny and is handed to you at your arrival gate. We do not ship cats in cargo.
