Let me tell you a little about my cattery.  Irishcoons is located in Florida near Tampa Bay.  Irishcoons was first registered with CFA in 1997 and in July of 1999 received a Veterinarian inspected, CFA Approved Cattery of Excellence standing.  We are a small cattery, producing a few litters a year.  This enables us to give the utmost attention to the socialization of the newborn kittens, and the rearing of the adolescent kittens as well.  Our home is our cattery so the kittens are truly raised underfoot.  We also enjoy a very busy show season, so staying small has its advantages.  We are a closed cattery which means we have our own males,  Grand Champion, Regional Winner, Black Tye's Dr. "J" of Irishcoons.  Doc was 19th Best Cat in the Southern Region for the 99-00 show year and Best Blue Tabby Maine Coon Nationally.  What a year for both of us!  We also have a younger male, CH Irishcoons Crimson Tide that has produced some beautiful kittens so far.  Most of the females have received at least the title of Champion and some Grand Champion.  Although we are proud of our show accomplishments, health, type and temperament are most important to us.

I specialize in blue tabbies with or without white.  Many people refer to this color as a soft gray with areas of fawn coloring blended in.  This fawn color is referred to as patina.  My breeding program allows me to have the ability to produce brown patch tabbies, brown classic tabbies, brown mackerel tabbies, red tabbies, and cream tabbies with or without white.  The colors of my females can be seen in The Girls of Irishcoons and my males can be seen in The Boys of Irishcoons.

What you expect from Irishcoons is a professional contract stating all agreements concerning the kitten or cat, requirements for a spay-neuter agreement for kittens sold as pets, a health guarantee, health certification, basic inoculations, and CFA registration papers.  You will also receive information that will help your kitten or cat adjust to its new home.  What Irishcoons expects from you is not to declaw your kitten, as it is a mutilation, to keep your purebred kitten exclusively indoors, to follow breeder advice on neutering and spaying as agreed, to register your kitten's name in CFA, and to send pictures and weights on the kitten to help the breeder track their development.

Have I Got Mews For You contains information regarding availability of kittens, litters that are expected, and also updates on what the cats of Irishcoons are up to.

A brochure featuring my cattery is available upon request.  If you would like further information regarding my cattery you may reach me at cattales@tampabay.rr.com.
