Frequently Asked Questions
Buying Maine Coon Kittens from SlowBlink
How much do your Maine Coon kittens cost?
Our kitten prices vary depending on a number of factors, includingcolor, pattern, traits, gender, and lineage.
Our Maine Coon Kitten prices typically range from $4,000 – $7,500.
Some combinations (such as shaded and blue eyed) are higher.
We have a page explaining more about the cost of a Maine Coon.
The cost of each specific kitten is provided when they become available or you reserve - feel free to message us for more.
Can I come visit in-person?
Sorry, for the health and safety of our family, cats, and especially - the kittens, we do not provide public access. Young kittens are still developing their immune systems and it is easy for them to pick up germs. However, we are more than happy to schedule a time in advance for a virtual visit with FaceTime, Google Meet, Zoom, or Teams. Once a kitten is reserved, we provide photo and video updates so that you can see your kitten grow up! We try to do photo sessions weekly.
Do you have any Maine Coon kittens available for sale? How can I get one?
Just message us !
We try to make it as easy as possible - when we went to get our first Maine Coon, we had to fill forms that were 40 pages, wait for weeks to get a response, and get on wait-lists that were booked 2 years ahead.

Can I choose the gender and color of my kitten?
We will do our best to accommodate your preferences based on the colors and genders of our breeding cats.
However, we prioritize placing our kittens in homes that are the best match for their personalities and needs above gender or color.
For example, if you have a household with three bulldogs, and your favorite kitty in our current litter is shy - or if you want a very active cat, but the kitten is very cuddly and not as active, we will discuss that with you first!

How do you socialize your kittens?
Our kittens are raised in our home and are exposed to a variety of sights, sounds, and experiences from an early age.
We handle and interact with our kittens on a daily basis to help them become comfortable around people and other animals. Our kittens are well-socialized with a colony of cats, from whom they learn.
Our kittens are also introduced to different toys and environments to help them develop their physical and cognitive abilities.
We provide our kittens with plenty of love and attention from the moment they are born. All of them sleep in our bed with us!
How do you ensure the health and well-being of your cats and kittens?
We follow the Code of Practice for Canadian Cattery Operations by the Canadian Veterinary Medical Association.
We work closely with our Vet to ensure that all of our breeding kings and queens receive regular check-ups, vaccinations, and preventative care.
We also take steps to prevent the spread of disease, such as quarantining new cats and kittens and ensuring that our cattery is clean and hygienic.
We also have an entire Ethics Policy Page.
Do you ship your kittens? Where do you ship to?
It is straightforward and easy for us to fly our kitties anywhere across Canada. We can ship anywhere in the United States, or arrange to meet near the Canada-USA border. For the rest of the world, We arrange transport across the world. See places where our kittens have gone.
