Our favourite kind of story
The first kitten brought us together. The second keeps the story going.
There is no greater compliment than a family returning years later to welcome another one of our cats.
From Vancouver, with love

About the breed
It is history,
and the beginning of everything.
The American Curl began in California in the early 1980s. Kittens are born with straight ears; the curl develops during the first days of life and settles as they grow. Their backward-curving ears are distinct from the forward fold of a Scottish Fold.
Coat
American Curls have a soft, silky coat that lies flat. Both longhair and shorthair Curls have minimal undercoat. Longhair Curls have a full, plumed tail and, because there is little undercoat, only need occasional brushing.
Character
Affectionate, playful and deeply curious, American Curls are natural explorers who enjoy interacting with people. Their accepting nature often helps them settle into diverse households and build trusting, affectionate bonds with children and other pets.
Those ears
American Curls are not Scottish Folds—their appearance and ear direction are distinctly different. Curl ears arc backward toward the back of the head, with an ideal arc of 90–180 degrees. The trait arose from a spontaneous genetic mutation; early genetic analysis found no defects in the crosses studied. Their ears should always be touched gently and never forced or bent into another position.
Kitten pricing
Price ranges
Each kitten is evaluated at three months of age. Final placement level and price are confirmed after that assessment.
Pet Level
CAD $1,850–2,550
Show Level
CAD $2,550–3,550
Top Show Level
CAD $3,550–4,550
Waiting List fee · CAD $150
Once a kitten has been selected, the remaining balance is due in full. The Waiting List fee is non-refundable if the applicant cancels or withdraws for personal reasons. It will be refunded if placement cannot be fulfilled due to a breeding cat’s health or an unavoidable health-related circumstance affecting the breeder.
All prices are in Canadian dollars. Classification is based on the kitten’s development and conformation at three months old.
Please read before applying
The right home matters.
The relationship between breeder and kitten family is a mutual choice. We hope every kitten finds the lifelong home that truly fits them—patient, loving and ready to treat them as family for life.
Health documents
Kittens go home with their vaccination record and a veterinary health certificate. Breeding cats are genetically tested.
Vaccines & spay/neuter
Our current plan is a first vaccine around 2.5 months, a second around 3.5 months, and spay/neuter before homecoming when age and weight allow.
Worldwide travel
Rabies vaccination and travel arrangements can be discussed when required for international destinations.
The form includes our full policies, deposit terms and agreement. Please read it before joining the waitlist or asking about an available kitten.

Health and temperament,
always come first.
Health and temperament are always our first priorities in breeding. Our kittens grow up as part of everyday family life, with thoughtful social development and honest communication from the first inquiry to long after homecoming.
