Maine Coon Kitten Pricing, Kitten Colors, and more below.
Past Kitten Now Grown
*DEPOSIT POLICY: If you can't get the kitten as planned, then your deposit can be moved to a future litter, it is not refundable. Please do not send a deposit unless you are 100% certain you want a kitten and are committed to the Maine Coon for its life. I am a sole proprietorship and have a sales license for Colorado, and my prices do include federal and state taxes that I pay per kitten. Anyone who is picking their kitten up, will meet all my cats and get a tour of our home cattery. All kittens also go home with a Welcome Home Kitten Care Package.
KITTEN PRICES: *The deposit is $500 (the deposit is a portion of the total price listed below). Deposit payment options are Zelle, Cash App, Venmo, a money order or a personal or cashier check. Zelle is easy to sign up for if you do not already have the Zelle app. Final payment option after the kitten is born is Zelle or a money order or a personal or cashier check ONLY.
FEMALE PRICES:
MALE PRICES:
** $100 discount for return clients.
** $100 discount for anyone getting two kittens at the same time.
THE REMAINING BALANCE DUE DATE: Once a deposit is sent to secure a particular kitten, the remaining balance is due before the kitten turns eight weeks old.
I also have personal LONG DISTANCE KITTEN DELIVERY OPTIONS <-----click the blue link for details.
HOW KITTEN PRICING IS DETERMINED: Multiple factors determine the pricing (such the color, gender, and demand), additionally all reputable breeders are investing into their cats and kittens continuously. When looking at kitten pricing remember that 20% goes to taxes. Then there is the overhead such as food, litter, toys, cleaning supplies, vet care, TICA registration, investing in new Maine Coons for the program, and a lot more. Lastly, for my time invested into every kitten, my adult cats, running my website and social pages, and my time put into every applicant and client. A reputable breeder knows the value of their program and kittens, and so do their clients. Why is breeding responsibly so expensive?
PLEASE EXCUSE ANY GRAMMAR OR SPELLING ERRORS, I TEND TO MISS MY OWN MISTAKES.

Kitten Colors Possible Based on my Parent's Coloring
*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.
