| Nebraskats Maine Coon Cats |
| Home Page |

| Welcome to Nebraskats We are a small home based cattery located in Nebraska. Upon attending my first cat show I fell in love with the gentle giants known as Maine Coon Cats. I sought out a local breeder and adopted a polydactyl boy named Tucker. Tucker was just the beginning of what grew into a passion for this special breed. I began showing in local CFA cat shows, and soon realized that I was destined to raise these loving cats so that others may experience the companionship of a Maine Coon Cat. Nebraskats Maine Coon Kittens are raised as a member of the family. They are socialized with people and dogs from a very early age. Kittens are adopted with a health guarantee, and all pet kittens are altered prior to placement. Nebraskats cattery is committed to raising healthy and loving Maine Coon Cats, therefore we believe it is our responsibility to test all our breeding cats for the MyBPC gene mutation, which is one of the causes of HCM ( heart disease) in cats. We breed only those cats that test negative for this gene mutation. |

My Little Kitty I Love My Little Kitty, she makes my house a home she always is my best friend, I never feel alone She makes me smile, she makes me laugh She fills my heart with love... Did some breeder breed her, or did she fall down from above I've never been a breeder, seen life through their eyes I hold my little kitty and just sit and criticise I've never known their anguish, I've never felt their pain the caring of their charges, through snow, wind and rain I've never sat the whole night, waiting for babies to be born The stress and trepidation when they're still not here by dawn I've never felt the heartache, of a little life in my hands This darling little baby, who weighs but 60 gramms Should you do that instead of this.. or this instead of that Alone you fight, and hope one day, he'll grow to be a cat and bring joy to another being, and make a house a home You know its all just up to you, you'll fight this fight alone Formula, bottles, heating pads, you've got to get this right Two hourly feeds for this tiny guy, throughout the day and night. In your heart you know, your almost sure to lose the fight to save this little baby, but god willing.. you might Day one he's in there fighting, you say a silent prayer Day two and three, he's doing well, with lots of love and care Day four and five... he's still alive, your hopes soar to the heavens Day six he slips away again, dies in your hands day seven You take this little angel, and bury him alone With aching heart and burning tears, and an exhausted groan You ask yourself "why do I do this?.. why suffer all this pain?" But when you see the joy your kittens bring.. it really self explains So, when you think of breeders and label them with "greed" Think about what they endure to fill another's need When you buy a kitten and with your precious dollars do part You only pay with money.. we pay with our heart.
