About our Cattery
Ars Britannica*PL specialises in varieties of silver, golden and point shaded cats. Our home cattery was founded in 2010 due to love to The British Shorthair Cats.
"In ancient times cats were worshipped as gods; They have not forgotten this." - Terry Pratchett
Ars Britannica*PL cats come from the noble bloodlines from all over the Europe. Each cat we introduce in our cattery have been chosen personally, with the special care of an outstanding pedigree, genetic purity, good fenotype features and a great pro-human character.
Our cats are part of our family. They share our everyday activities and live with us as home members. They are very social and friendly - these features provide a healthy beautiful offspring. Our kittens are destined to live as pets in loving families, as well as to be breeding and show quality cats in the good catteries around the world.
You can find black silver shaded / chinchilla, silver & golden point and blue, lilac, choco and black golden shaded / ticked cats & kittens in our cattery.
Black silver shaded cats [bri ns 11] have black cushions feet and rims arround eyes. They stun with their marvelous smoothly shaded white fur with black coloration, green eyes and a captivating character. They are real pet friends - loving their owners, responding well to small children and house guests.
Tipped cats have always something to tell. We have noticed that when our first silver shaded kitten Ellada came to us from Estonia. Lilly was always eager to talk in “cat style” about her needs, complained when there was something she did not like, or request to play, eat, sleep, hug. She was a real coquette with a strong character in a small compact body. She started our great unconditional love to silver shaded cats.
Tippies love to be close to their owners and almost always look for cuddling and intimacy. Despite that they are not absorbing and do not require constant attention and care.
The other varieties we specialise in are golden shaded in shades of black, blue, choco & lilac and golden & silver colourpoints. Our golden squirells as we call the golden cats, are full of joy and sweetness. They love to cuddle, purr and eat.
Silver and golden points charm with their huge blue eyes and friendly being nature. Although these varities differ from each other they love their company and live well within our cat-human family.
Nevertheless the color variety we concentrate on breeding social and lovely cats. Our females are wonderful caring mothers. They raise and feed their offspring with love, making our kittens grow into beautiful cats with wonderful, charming characters. Our males are large, calm bears who love sweet doing nothing, dating girls and get a lot of cuddling:)
