Services Info
Yes! Our breeding program is registered with both The International Cat Association (TICA) & Cat Fanciers’ Association (CFA) . We operate under the name RegalBSH” at “TICA” and “CFA”
I have a bachelor’s degree in Exercise & Wellness, and I am also a Registered Nurse (RN). I am very grateful for my nursing skills and training – which I use every day as a breeder!
Thanks to my background, I am able to understand medical terminology, lab work, anatomy, physiology, reproduction, medication dosing and nutrition on a deeper level than most. In my experience, this all translates from humans to animals and applies greatly to my work as a breeder.
Being a nurse allows me to do more than your typical breeder and I am grateful for the confidence and skillset that it provides me!
We are located in Oklahoma, Our kittens have been adopted by families who live all over the country!
If you live out of state, you can hire a professional flight nanny, who flies in-cabin with your kitten to your local airport and delivers the kitten directly to you. I am happy to recommend you to our preferred, trusted flight nanny companies. I am also able to meet you at the Okeechobee Airport with your kitten if you would prefer to fly in yourself to pick up your kitten in person.
We do not ship our kittens in cargo. For more information on pickup/delivery options, please visit our adoption page.
We do offer cattery visiting hours upon appointments or kitten pickups at our home. Our homeowner’s insurance does not cover in-home visits to our cattery. We also try to reduce the risk of infectious disease transmission to our dogs and puppies as much as possible, so we are closed to all visitors.
With today’s technology, in-person visits have become obsolete. You can view our home and cattery environment first-hand on our social media pages. Our home/cattery is always kept meticulously clean and our cats and kittens are very well cared for.
I welcome the opportunity to develop relationships with other small, registered, ethical Golden Retriever, Labrador & Labradoodle puppies kennel. I will occasionally work with other breeders who already have an established program, with goals that align with my own. Any breeder I work with must practice early spay/neuter and only breed traditional,
Feel free to reach out if you are a fellowGolden Retriever, Labrador & Labradoodle puppies Breeder! I would love to get to know you!
You can do so by emailing or calling us.

Emergency Questions
Spay/neuter is an essential part of any ethical breeding program and it is the best choice for our puppies. Here are some proven facts about early spay/neuter in felines:
The practice of early spay/neuter prevents unintended pregnancies + decreases the homeless cat population
Lowers risk of mammary cancer
Eliminates risk of reproductive emergencies, such as pyometra
Results in faster healing time
Lowers risk of surgical complications
The procedure is easier, quicker and safer if done before 5 months of age
A 1996 study demonstrated no difference in urethral diameter between cats neutered at 7 weeks, neutered at 7 months, or left intact
Studies have found no relationship between early spay/neuter and orthopedic conditions in dogs.
Current scientific evidence shows no medical or behavioral reasons to delay spaying/neutering of cats past 5 months of age.
When you adopt a kitten from us, you won’t have to experience the stressful process of having your kitten go through a surgical procedure because I take care of all of it for you. When you bring your kitten home, you only have to focus on bonding with each other!
If you still have questions on early spay/neuter, please click here to read an article on the topic written by “Today’s Veterinary Practice”, where we obtained the information summarized above.
This will vary between kittens. Our British Shorthair kittens are typically spayed/neutered between 8-12 weeks old and can usually leave 2 weeks later, once recovered from their surgeries.

All of the kittens born into our home are also seen by our veterinarian for a full physical exam before leaving to their new families.
Yes, our breeding cats are all genetically tested and thoroughly health screened. You can view copies of the individual health tests we have done on our cats by visiting our Males and Females pages.

We highly discourage allowing your British Shorthair outdoors. Going outside exposes your cat to many potential diseases and dangers. Golden Retrievers, Labradors & Labradoodles have been specifically bred to be extremely gentle-natured and loving. They do not have the normal survival instincts that other cats have so they may not pick up on the potential dangers of the outside world. This leaves them very vulnerable to injury, and even death, when let outdoors. For your puppy’s health and safety, we highly recommend keeping them inside where they will be just as happy cuddled up with you on the couch!
British Shorthair kittens are companion cats – they crave love, socialization and human interaction. They get very attached to their owners, making them more prone to separation anxiety. If your job requires you to be gone for the majority of the day, we highly recommend having a second puppy friend to keep your British Shorthair kitten company!
