from Ann and Patrick ... We have 2 little precious long hair female kitties from Lou, which are four months apart in age, with same dad, different moms. We live in New Castle, Colorado and for both kitties have traveled to Colorado Springs and driven back with me in the backseat, with our precious cargo on my lap, while hubby drove. Our 2 girls love each other, are gorgeous, adorable, sweet personalities, healthy, love to play, smart, funny, quiet, calm, well adjusted from day 1, eat well, no potty issues, gorgeous long fur coats that do not mat, love to be brushed, always purring loudly, love belly rubs, and are always by our sides.

She loves what she does and it shows in all her kitties. We have always been cat people and have had Himalayan's/Persians. We totally recommend Lou and will purchase other kitties from her when the time comes. Her kitties will bring many years of happiness to you and your family ... her kitties are priceless and she is not only a wonderful breeder, but a friend, and will be there for any questions you might have.

from Jill......"Lou has been the best breeder I have ever dealt with. Usually they go silent after the cat is shipped. She has been accessible & open for any follow up questions I have had.
This is my 4th exotic shorthair & I have had 3 Himlayans. This is the healthiest cat & best quality cat I have ever had. He is also smart & easily teachable, which has been bred out of most cats. He is extremely friendly & loves being handled. He was scared of our dog but adapted to that easily. He used the litter box & scratch post right away if it was visible & accessible to him.
Hope that helps, love this breed, so laid back & easy to take care of."
Ask me anything,Jill
from Peggy.....Just thought I'd say thank you for bringing Gaby into this world. She is one year old today and I can't imagine life without her! Here is a picture I took of her a few minutes ago.
Hope you and your family are doing wonderful. Again, thank you!
from Connie.....He is so neat. Had a swarm of people wanting to hold him at the vet's office when we went in for shots. Everyone who meets him falls instantly in love with him, including my yellow lab dog! His personality is priceless, very comical. Oh you know I could go on and on... Will send you his latest picture. Take care. Connie
Two of our past kittens!
This is an EXAMPLE of our traditional PERSIAN KITTEN. A Persian is a calm, sweet cat that is typically quiet. They are identified by their long, flowing coat, high nose, low, wide-set ears and large round eyes. This kitty is a cream and white bi-colored Persian. Persian breeders take pride in the health and quality of their cats and kittens. We do have Persian kittens for sale when they do not work for our program. That does not mean that they are any less than perfect. It only means that they may not have what we need, genetically, for our program.
This is an EXAMPLE of the EXOTIC SHORT-HAIRED PERSIAN KITTENS we have here at Amerikitties. The EXOTIC is a hybrid Persian. It originated from the mix of the American short haired cat and the Persian breeds. The Exotic is slightly huskier than the traditional Persian and is characterized by it's short, plush coat. We have Exotic short-haired Persians in different color combinations.
Best food for our kittens:
We use Proplan Sensitive Stomach. This is a high quality food that is made in America. The first ingredient is real lamb. It is high in protein and gentle on all of our cat/kittens tummies.

BE AWARE!! Judith Heath of Show Felines
"Please be aware of kittens or cats that are marketed as doll faced Persians. Doll faces have long noses and are not flat faced. Their head structure as well as their noses, do not conform to the CFA or TICA standard for the breed. Yet, they may be registered, which is no indication of quality. The Persian standard calls for a short, snub, and broad nose with a "break" centered between the eyes - nose no longer then the bottom of the eyes. The Persian standard also addresses the head structure - dollfaced Persians do not meet these standards. There is no show division for a doll faced Persian and they are not allowed as an entry. A breeder continuing to breed for dollfaced Persians is actually taking the breed backwards, not forward. It is hard to continue to meet or exceed the Persian standard - but it is easy to breed just to get a kitten for sale. Spend your money on a purebred Persian from a breeder adhering to the standard for the Breed to make sure you get what you paid for. How do you know who adheres to the standard for the Persian Breed? See if they show their Persians or see if the parents of the kitten has a title. At least 6 judges are required in order to give the title of championship (CFA) to a Persian and 200 points are required for the Grand, far more points are required for Regional or National wins.. These judges know if a cattery is adhering to the Persian standard and will award them with titles if they do. Use this knowledge to screen for your next kitten. A good breeder will spend time and resources on showing as a measurement of achieving the Breed Standard. This advice applies even if you are only searching for a pet quality Persian.
Another note - this is in regards to the advertised tea cup, miniature or dwarf Persians - these are mutated or undersized kittens. No cat association recognizes these as a special Persian breed and they don't meet the Persian standard - if entered in a show, they are disqualified. Don't be fooled by the extraordinary prices unethical breeders place on these type of kittens who advertise them as a special Persian breed. If you buy these, be prepared to have possible health issues down the road. Please talk to CFA, TICA or FIFE as well as other bona fide cat registries before buying these mutated or undersized Persians. Don't be part of breeder experimentation at the kitten's risk."
