BELOW ARE SIX VIDEOS OF OUR KITTEN NURSERIES & MORE
We moved into our new home in March 2022. We have two kitten nurseries and a cat room in our home. My adult cats have full household freedom, except at bedtime. My adult cats also have a custom catio they can access through a cat door, so they can enjoy being outside safely when they choose, and you can view that video on my MAINE COON QUEENS/KING page. There are also two videos below of two different litters at my vet getting their first vaccines and a checkup. Small kittens need a safe space to grow and also learn good litter box habits, which is why I have kitten nurseries. All my rooms have custom doors to allow them full access to seeing us when I can't be in their room with them, and you will see those doors in a video below. I also installed custom window seats throughout my home and even in the kitten nurseries and the kittens love watching birds and people outside the window. I hope you enjoy the videos.

Kitten Colors Possible Based on my Parent's Coloring
Chibbs is past kitten & NOT AVAILABLE.
*Phoenix, Bleubelle, Bella, & Duchess have these two colors only, & mostly Black Smoke.
The color of a kitten is based on the color of the parents (recessive for dilute can be carried but not visually expressed). Red is a sex-linked color. More on color genetics here: http://www.bio.miami.edu/dana/dox/calico.html
Smoke (Silver) is caused by the combination of the dominant Inhibitor gene with the recessive non-agouti (non-tabby) gene. So Black Smoke means Black with Silver expression. Same for Blue Smoke, Red Smoke, and etc. All have the Silver Expression starting at the roots and in varying degrees of intensity.
Tabby is not a color or a breed of cat, tabby is a pattern on a base coat color. There are different tabby patterns too. Many types of cats come with a tabby pattern. Well-marked tabby's regardless of breed or a domestic cats have an 'M' marked forehead. This is NOT an exclusive marking for Maine Coons. Maine Coon stands for the state of Maine and their origin. Tabby patterns in a Maine Coon: mackerel, classic, or ticked.
- Black Smoke, male and female kittens (black coat with a silver undercoat--silver expression varies).
- Black, male and female kittens (solid Black).
*Only Sylvie can have the colors below, in addition to Black and Black Smoke. - Black/Brown Tabby, male and female kittens (black tabby pattern with a brown background).
- Silver Tabby, male and female kittens (silver coat with black tabby pattern).
- Red Tabby, male kittens only (red pattern with red roots).
- Red Smoke, male kittens only (red tabby pattern and a silver undercoat--silver expression varies).
- Blacktorbie, female kittens only (Black/brown background color with a tabby pattern and patches of red/cream).
- Silver Blacktorbie, female kittens only (Silver background with a black/grey tabby pattern and patches of red/cream).
- Black Smoke, male and female kittens (black coat with a silver undercoat--silver expression varies).
