Kitten Reservation List
- As of 07/17/2025, Karello Cattery is no longer accepting deposits or reservations for our upcoming kittens. We’re not retiring, the dynamics of trust has changed. Online scamming is rampant and has affected many financial aspects of our daily lives. We feel our energies are better utilized elsewhere in our breeding program. Don’t be discouraged, contact us, and stay in touch for best results.
- You may still contact us to inquire about purchasing a kitten. Once they’ve been born or are posted on our website is ok, too. As mentioned above, we love hearing from you and especially talking about our Manx and Cymric cats.
We appreciate potential new owners who are respectful and understanding to our breeding program and future generations. We reserve the right not to work with anyone that is unkind and threatens us in any way. We believe in trust, good communication and a partnership, rather than a dictatorship, when it comes to placing our precious Manx and Cymric cats. Our new owners are family. We’ve placed our babies with owners from all walks of life and testified as an expert witness in court, with 29 yrs experience breeding registered Manx.
We breed Manx cats as a hobby, not a business. Breeding is not our main source of income. We usually place what we will not use in our breeding program. Preserving the Manx and Cymric breed for future generations is our only goal and most important to us.
Things that factor into being approved to buy one of our Manx kittens are availability, your home, lifestyle, upcoming expected litters, number of breeding females and amount or quality of kittens born. I’m happy to speak with you personally, you’re welcome to visit my home, once your Manx has been paid for and I offer video chat via Zoom anytime, to update your kittens growth.
Our Location
We’re centrally located in the state of Pennsylvania. Close to Penn State University’s Main Campus, near State College, Pennsylvania.
Contact Us
Email us at manxcatbreeder@gmail.com for more information on our available Manx and Cymric kittens and upcoming litters.
Shipping and Transportation
Owners can choose to pick up their kitten personally or use a ground or air transport courier service. We’ll recommend a ground or air transport courier service we’ve worked with in the past. I don’t deliver kittens or fly them cargo.
All shipping, transportation and vet expenses are owners responsibility. They can include courier service, rental car, gas, parking, airline round trip flight, a health certificate and rabies vaccine fees. Additional testing desired by owner, Feline Leukemia, a pet passport, a carrier and a microchip can also be included. Discuss these fees with your breeder, you can have them detailed in the Sales Contract appendix notes.

Calico
We primarily register our adults and kittens thru the Cat Fanciers Association. CFA does not allow registering of Pointed (Siamese breed colors), Chocolate or Lavender colors. This is due to the belief these colors are not “naturally occurring” colors to this breed. So, since our Manx are primarily registered with CFA, we don’t breed for these colors.
What To Look For When Purchasing A Manx or Cymric Kitten.
Below are some examples potential owners should be aware of when purchasing a Manx or Cymric kitten from any breeder.
Cleanliness – Look at the cleanliness of the kitten, it will be your first indication of health and care given.
Questions: Are the kitten’s eyes weeping, swollen, red or half-open, do they have unusual black matter in the corners? Is there discharge around or coming from the nose?
Answer: Cats sometimes have normal matter in the corner of their eyes as humans do. This is ok. As long as the eye area is not swollen, red or has yellow discharge in or around them. Eyes shouldn’t weep or be held half open. These things could indicate a scratch, an ulcer or an infection. Infections can be health or stress related. They could be indications, but not always, signs of poor living conditions, dirty litter boxes and fumes from them. Too many cats being housed in an area, outside building with poor ventilation, are signs of poor cat husbandry and over crowding.
Ideal: Eyes should be clean, open, crystal clear, have an overall appearance of health and be full of life.
Questions: Are the kitten’s feet, fur and/or bottom dark yellow stained? Is the fur matted, unkept or missing? Are fleas or flea dirt on it’s under side?
Answer: Yellow stains can be seen easily on white fur. It can be signs that feces and urine were on that area and a sign of uncleanliness. This could be an indication of poor health, such as diarrhea or leakage. It can also be evidence of an unclean environment with dirty litter pans, living areas or show poor cleanliness and care. Fleas and their feces can sometimes be seen by turning the cat over. Fleas are small black insects that crawl or jump very fast and eat blood. Flea feces looks like dirt or pepper on the skin, when placed on a white paper plate and moistened, let to sit, it slowly reconstitutes red like blood.
Ideal: Fur should be smooth and soft, look (and smell) clean from head to toes, with no staining, no mats, no areas of fur missing (except for surgical procedures) with no visible signs of fleas or flea dirt on the body. Fleas are very easy to control with the invention of monthly topical treatments. There’s no reason for anyone to have fleas on their kittens, this is totally unacceptable.
Question: Are the kitten’s ears clean?
Answer: Ears shouldn’t have anything resembling coffee grounds, brown wax, a discharge or any smell. This could be an indication of ear mites, an infection or fungus.
Ideal: Kittens ears should be as clean as you’d want your own to be. They should be dry, matter free and have no smell.
Socialization– This is the key to choosing a wonderful pet and companion.
Questions: Does the person keep their kittens in a clean, warm, loving environment protected from harm? Are they kept outside, treated like livestock animals?
Answer: A well socialized kitten is best raised and kept in a home environment around people, children and other animals to become accustomed best with those sounds, since that is where they are expected to be living their lives out.
Ideal: The ideal kitten is curious and playful, alert and confident, no matter what their surroundings. They may purr when stroked or spoken to, look into your eyes and join in when a toy is introduced. They should never run from you in fear or hide. It’s normal for any animal to have a transition period when first taken home. Contact your breeder sooner rather than later should issues arise.
That’s a good indication of the quality breeder and kittens we produce as well as what to avoid. Honesty and quality are high on the list of things to behold, without either, you’re just another animal breeder trying to turn an easy dollar.
If you have a question not addressed in this website please feel free to contact us via email. Have a blessed day. 🙏
