We take the health of our cats very seriously & all are kept up to date with all their vaccinations and our kittens are fully vaccinated incl FeLV before leaving us.

All our cats are DNA Tested for PKD & ALPS or are bred from parents that have been tested negative, PKD is a genetic condition of the kidney - Polycystic Kidney Disease  which can effect British SH & LHs.

British Shorthair ALPS is a non-neoplastic, lymphoproliferative disease characterised by an accumulation of immune cells in the lymph nodes and spleen, which results in these tissues becoming dramatically enlarged. The disease presents at an early age (6-8 weeks) and progresses rapidly (2-3 weeks) when the kittens show abdominal distension, anaemia, lethargy and weight loss. Affected kittens either die or are euthanised within a short time (4 weeks) of presentation.

Our White cats must pass a BAER Test for normal hearing that is conducted at Glasgow University Small Animal Hospital before we will breed from them.
