A: We do not let any of our cubs / kittens go to new homes until they are 8 weeks old if you plan to pick them up in person or live locally for a drop off. If you need us to ship them to you on an airplane we do not let them go tell they are 12 weeks old for the health and safety of the cat.

A: Males do not reach maturity til around 3 years of age and weigh around 12-20+ pounds and females females mature earlier and weigh around 8-17 pounds. We do not guarantee any sizes on the adult cats. Most of our cats fall in the middle of that scale.
Q: Do you sell Deserts or Highland Lynx for the purpose of breeding?
A: This is not an easy question to answer. The short answer would be "Yes", but it is very unlikely. Breeding of any animal is a large commitment of time and money. We would have to be 100% positive that the person we where sending a breeder to can handle the responsibility. This would be determined on a case by case bases. There is never any harm in asking :)
Q: Do Desert and Highland Lynx cats need a special diet?
A: No. The Desert and High Lynx can eat regular cat food. We do suggest a high quality cat food to used to ensure the health of your cats. Your cat is part of your family and should be treated as such with high quality food products. Some Desert and Highland cats owners feed there animals a full or partial raw meat diet, but we always suggest people to do lots of research on this and ask your veterinarians advice before trying this.
