How to Choose a Responsible British Shorthair Breeder

Our beloved British Shorthair Queen — the heart of many generations at CDiamonds. True breeding begins with love and care.

 Choosing the right breeder is the first and most important step toward finding your perfect British Shorthair companion. A kitten’s health, temperament, and happiness all begin with the people who raise them.

Here are a few things to look for when searching for a responsible cattery:

🏛 1. Official registration

A trusted breeder is always registered with international associations such as WCF or TICA. This ensures that their cats have verified pedigrees and are raised according to high ethical and health standards.

💉 2. Health first

Each kitten should receive veterinary care, vaccinations, and age-appropriate health checks. Responsible breeders are open about their cats’ medical records and genetic background.

🏡 3. Home-raised kittens

The best kittens grow up surrounded by family life — in warmth, safety, and love. This is how they learn to trust people, become gentle, and adapt easily to their new homes.

📷 4. Honest updates instead of visits

Not every cattery opens its doors to visitors — and that’s perfectly fine. Caring breeders protect their cats’ peace and avoid unnecessary stress.

Look for regular photo and video updates that show how kittens grow and develop in a real home environment.

💕 5. Happy families around the world

Nothing tells a breeder’s story better than the families who already share their lives with these kittens. Look for real photos and feedback — those are the best proof of love and care.

🌿 6. Lifelong connection

A good breeder doesn’t say goodbye when the kitten leaves. They stay in touch, offering advice and support, because for them every kitten remains part of the family — no matter where in the world they live.

At CDiamonds, we believe that trust begins with transparency and love for every kitten.
