Pet Kitten Application – Aubs Maine Coons

What up! Before submitting a PET KITTEN application please go thru every part of our website (especially the FAQ section!) so that you are familiar with how we roll. While I try to get to every application in a timely manner, please keep in mind that I have a family of humans and felines to care for, and so even though I may not respond right away, please be assured that I will look thru your application in the order that it was received.

Filling out this application is the 2nd step (1st step is to study everything on our website!) to joining the approved families list. Once approved and joined you will receive alerts when kittens become available. We give priority in the following order: cattery, breeders, returning families, multi-cat purchase families, approved families.

Click here if you are wanting to join the approved breeders list (for established catteries only!)

Please do your homework, check out many different breeders and get a feel for what kind of breeder you are looking for. I may be a good fit for you, and I may not be. No hard feelings if i’m not.

I look forward to hearing from you, and hopefully getting to know you better!

What form of payment is only accepted at the time of pickup?

Payment in full is required to reserve the kitten and at the time of pickup. If you do not have the full amount to be able to reserve the kitten, you will not be able to reserve it until you do. If you do not have the full amount in cash to pickup the kitten when it is time to take it home, you will not be able to take the kitten home with you. Do you understand that I do not accept payment plans for the reservation deposit or the final payment, and that both are required in full to reserve/pickup?

Is the deposit refundable?

Do you understand that the prices are subject to change and do you agree to check the current prices before choosing your kitten?

Do you understand that the kitten will be ready to go home at 13 weeks old if it is sterilized at 12 weeks, unless you choose to do the SpaySecure contract, then the kitten can go home at 12 weeks? Do you also understand the kitten will NOT go home before that age?

Do you understand that if the kitten isn't picked up by the date that is decided on, there will be a maintenance/boarding fee of $10 per day past the scheduled pickup date, and that if after 1 week of no contact or no pickup after the scheduled date, the kitten will be made available to a new family?

Have you thoroughly discussed the decision to get a kitten with all decision makers in your household?
