TruTails Maine Coon Cats
Cat/Kitten Adoption Questionnaire

The intent of this questionnaire is to help us at TruTails Maine Coon Cattery evaluate potential parents and their environments for the placement of our cats & kittens. It is our desire to make the best possible match between our kittens and their future families. (PLEASE NOTE: All information provided will be kept confidential and used only for this purpose.) We maintain a waiting list on the cats/kittens currently available only. During the time from birth to 10-12 weeks we determine what we believe to be the "quality" of the indivudual kitten (i.e. show/breeder, show/alter, pet). Next we match your preferences for show or pet quality, sex, color, pattern, age, etc. to the kittens we have available. We do not accept reservations on kittens prior to 10 weeks of age. Kittens go to their new homes between 12 - 16 weeks of age.

NOTE: Sorry, it is not possible for us to maintain an ongoing waiting list... If you do not get a kitten from the current litter, and you wish to be considered for a future litter, simply email us and indicate the next litter you wish to be considered for. You will not be required to fill out a new questionnaire, but please remind us of your full name and phone number. Click here to see planned breedings.
