Maine Coon Adoption Process
The basics of adopting a kitten
Step 1- Become a guardian ​
​
Complete the adoption application. If approved, we will email you and provide more information!
​
When kittens become available, all the approved applicants will be emailed with the current password for reserving a kitten. This gives everyone the same opportunity to get a kitten. Then you simply go to the available kitten page, put your password in, and reserve your kitten.
​​​
Step 2- Reserve your Kitten
Reservation fees are $1,000 per kitten. This is a non-refundable deposit made to keep your kitten until they are ready to go to their forever home. ​
​
Step 3 - Arrange for the pick up of your kitten
​
Kittens will be available to pick up between 13-14 weeks of age after they have completed their veterinary care!
Things to Note
Our AristoCoon kittens do not operate on a 'waiting list'. Instead, all pre-approved guardians will be informed when kittens are available and reservations open, ensuring everyone has an equal chance to reserve a kitten! To enhance your chances of securing your kitten, we recommend completing an application.
Applications are typically reviewed within a week, and you will receive a decision via email.
​
*Repeat buyers, those interested in siblings from the same litter, receive priority, and anyone who has been waiting to reserve a kitten for over 6 months will receive priority access to reserve their kitten first.*
We emphasize the health and veterinary care of our kittens, maintain breed standards, and focus on the rarity of coats and colors, rather than being the 'cheapest' of breeders. Consequently, AristoCoon kittens may not be the right choice for everyone. Our higher prices reflect the care, skill, and dedication we invest in breeding only the highest quality Maine Coon kittens.
If you're seeking the 'cheapest' Maine Coon breeder, be sure to set aside additional funds for future veterinary expenses.
Maine Coon kitten prices vary based on coat color, gender, and cattery. In recent years, the cost for a purebred Maine Coon has increased, typically ranging from $3,500 to $6,000 for pets.
Breeding rights are more expensive and only available to registered approved catteries.
Please refer to the Maine Coon kitten price chart below to compare our cattery with other reputable catteries.
PLEASE NOTE: There are many scammers in the market. If you come across a kitten priced under $3,000, proceed with extreme caution.
What is the 'Gold Standard' exactly?
Let's talk about what the 'Gold Standard' means, and what sets AristoCoon Cat's kittens apart. ​
​
The Maine Coon Breed Standard.
​
Having a pedigree cat is a completely different world from a traditional house cat. Pedigree cats have been specifically bred to exhibit physical traits and markers of the breed. Cat Clubs around the world have set these standards which all purebred cats should meet, known as "the breed standard". Most pet owners are unaware of the breed standard for their cats, whether they are pedigree cats or not. This falls on the responsibility of breeders to ensure they are meeting the breed standard and preserving the integrity of the line. Unfortunately, many breeders just love the breed and fail to ensure the cats in their breeding program meet the breed standard. AristoCoon cattery takes this role extremely seriously and places a large level of time and energy into preserving the Maine Coon line.
​
The Temperament of Our Kittens
​
Most breeders will focus on the look of the cat and spend little time assessing the temperament before breeding. It is a common breeding mistake, as temperament is passed on from generation to generation. One of the most common reasons for desiring a Maine Coon is its record for having the best temperament among cats. Friendly, affectionate, playful, and intelligent. These cats are in a league of their own. Our Maine Coons are bred to have the best temperament you can find, and our kittens are socialized from birth, which is why our breeding program is so small. You will frequently find our Maine Coon's lying near the children, overseeing schoolwork, requesting belly rubs on the couch, and giving you one light trill to tell you how loved you are. They are exceptional with small children, loyal to the highest degree, and a step above other cats.
​
The Health & Wellness
​
The health and wellness of our cats is the top priority. All kittens will be spayed or neutered before they can be adopted, have a clean bill of health, and be up to date on vaccines. Additionally, our care extends beyond veterinary care and into the home environment where our cats live. Stressful living situations can cause chronic illnesses in felines, and to put it straight, our cats live as the kings and queens they are. Free access to run, jump, and explore. Our cats have free roam throughout our home. You will frequently find Mischa perched on top of our bookshelves, looking down at the household. They are monitored for signs of stress and overall contentment daily. We are able to provide 24/7 care and activities for our cats and kittens, which makes your kitten happier and thus healthier overall.
