Comments from Adoraelves Kitten Owners

Hi Helen!

We are enjoying our new kitty eminencely she is the greatest little kitty. Although my vet strongly advised me that the Spynx breed would not kid friendly, a good cat, or the companion that some claim it to be....he was more than wrong. My kitty takes baths with my two year old and plays gentle with her all day. She is a super addition and blessing to our home! I am glad that I chose not to listen to the bad advice and/or suggestions from my vet. Thanks so much for all the great information you provided to me and continue to provide. - Jana Cole, Florida

She is great. She loves her lazer light the best. We play every night. I know when she wants to play,
she'll come and sit by me and meow until I get the light. She is a blessing. I love her. I want to
getting her a sister or brother at the first of the year.
Thanks
Demetria

Dear Helen, I have a winner!!! Bela is the sweetest pet I have ever had. Whereever I am there she is.

She comes when I call her, she loves company and makes friends immediately. She likes to sleep

on top of me. She sits on my desk with me when I work. What a wonderful companion she has turned out

o be. I just wanted you to know how great she is andhow much I love her.

Hope all is well with you. best regards, Judy

My husband and I absolutely love her to pieces. All the research info about Sphynx
breeds being dog-like were right on target. With this being my first cat, I
expected her to pretty much keep to herself and be independent as that was
what I knew of cats. She has been completely the opposite. She runs to the
door and greets us, sits on us while watching tv and sleeps curled up in
my arms every night. She has yet to wonder off to be by herself. She is
absolutely amazing and I would highly recommend this breed to anyone,
especially those of us who were die hard dog lovers!!!!

Hi Helen,

It's funny how I had all the time in the world to stalk you before I
got Ganji but now it's been months and I can't find the time to email.
I was so worried about buying a kitten from anywhere (you included),
I've read so many horror stories... The first thing I did was take her
to a vet. Not only did she steal their hearts she got a perfect bill
of health, weight, size, responsiveness, muscle tone was exactly as it
should be. Thank you so much for the hard work and the new priceless
addition to our family. She settled right in and quickly claimed the
space as hers! We've bought her count less toys but her favorite is bottle caps. I couldn't be more grateful.

Don't be surprised if we come looking for a brother for her soon :o) We couldn't be happier with her. Please feel free to use me as a reference: munkyslove

Helen-
We are writing you to thank you for Beatrice because she is the sweetest, warmest little thing ever. She is so well behaved, has very little fear of our other cats and dog, and just follows us around all day! She nuzzles and kisses us in the morning and has even already learned to use the scratching post and not the furniture. Keep up whatever you are doing because you raised the smartest sweetest kitten either of us has ever seen!
Thanks again,
Gabi and Santino
Ps she loves the computer and is always on the keyboard.

Fantastic experience with Adoraelves Cattery! My Sphynx baby is now 5 years old and is still an amazing, friendly, HEALTHY cat. When I visited the cattery, I was surprised and pleased to find that all of her cats are treated like members of the family. They're not locked in some room to be used as breeders - no, they run around the house greeting guests and trying to get Helen to hold and cuddle with them. It was a very pleasant surprise and made me that much more sure that Adoraelves Cattery was an excellent establishment.

When I got my baby, I was very happy to realize how well-adjusted, personable, friendly, outgoing, and lovable she was. All of Helen's cats are socialized extremely well and fit in as family members immediately.

I would recommend this Cattery to anyone 110%! She was an extremely nice person and truly cares about her 'kids'(Nicole)

Hey Helen! Just wanted to check in and say thank you again! Me and Lydia are so happy! I have never been so close to any animal! I love her so much she is truly the light of my life! I could never say thank you enough! I just wanted to send you some pictures so you can see your baby and let you know she is a huge ball of fun!!! I do not know exactly how you raise your babies but i can tell you this cat is so well tempered and so lovable! She gets along with my other babies but most important she is attatched to me at the hip literally i love it! We have been having some problems lately with her stealing things of mine and hiding them!!! I have been late to work over 3 times! because she takes my car keys and puts them under the blanket and then lays on top of them!! Its so cute! I also caught her taking all my eyes shadow and putting it in the toilet!!! AND all my socks went missing and i had to buy new ones.......i later found her dragging them behind the couch and when i looked she had a whole collection!! I am not sure why she does those things! But i think they are so adorable! I cannot say thank you enough Helen i love her so much!
With LOTS of love,
Ashley&Lydia

Hi Helen,

Thanks again for everything,

Kathy and I have taken the time to really check out a lot of kittens and a lot of different catteries. It was very important to us that we made good decisions regarding which breed to choose, which breeder to work with, and which individual kitten to buy. I think most Sphynx breeders are capable and very dedicated. Very few are in it for the money. However, we did run into a few situations that made us a bit weary and disappointed. After having a nice telephone conversation with each breeder who had kittens for sale, we would then drive long distances and arrive at some catteries only to find kittens that had way too much fuzz, or were cross-eyed, or had a different major physical flaw, or seemed a bit sickly. One breeder was not very friendly when we visited her cattery and just wanted to ask her some questions. One breeder would not even let us come to her cattery to meet the cat she had for sale. She said she was too busy with her everyday life to have visitors. She wanted us to buy her cat over the phone, sight unseen.Kathy and I really feel that you are the best and stand out amongst your fellow breeders. You are friendly, honest, and knowledgeable. You are a hard working person with wonderful quality Sphynx cats. Your "pet quality" kittens exceed most other breeder's "show quality" kittens. Your prices are fair and reasonable. Your cattery is neat and clean. The cats have a friendly, safe, and healthy environment in which to live and play. We learned a lot from you and appreciate your friendship. Thank you for doing such a quality, professional job and thank you for our two new wonderful Sphynx kittens, Myca and Mortimer(rkkraus)

Hi Helen!
I wanted you to know that Doppler (Devon Rex) and Pascal (Sphynx) are doing great. They are quite the comedy duo. They are growing like weeds, romping for 10 minutes and sleeping off the exhausting for 100 minutes. Their personalities are fantastic, they're exceptionally well behaved, and I adore watching them do their cuddling routine for bedtime. I'm so pleased with the boys. Be sure to add CA to your list of states with happy, healthy, affectionate Adoraelves gargoyles (kittens).-(kmrahrig@hotmail.com)

I just thought you might get a kick out of hearing how my husband has just totally fallen for our little girl. She has adapted much more quickly than I thought she would. We had a minor setback with her litterbox, but I figured out it was just a little too far away from where we usually all hang out in the house, since it was moved closer, she has done great, no other accidents.
As soon as I sit down, she's up on my shoulder, making herself a little tent out of my hair. But the minute my husband comes home she runs around the house after him wanting his attention! Its totally hilarious! She's pretty quiet all day, (she's been playing with matchbox cars with my 3yr old), but as soon as the front door opens around 5pm and my husband walks in, oh man! She never stops chattering until he sits down and she gets to sit on his lap and get petted! He has never been around a kitten before, so this has been an unexpected awesome experience for him.
Thanks again for our sweet lil Fiona,(annemarieblum@gmail.com)

Just wanted to give you an update and let you know our baby is doing fantastic. She adjusted very quickly to her new home and she and our other Devon have fallen completely in love. They are best friends, playing, cuddling and sleeping together. She's eating well and mastered her new litter box in less than 24 hours. Thanks for providing such a great home and start to her life. It shows in her character and social skills. She greets all visitors as if it's her house and seems to love everyone and everything we do with her. I'm sure I'll have some referrals in time for you as well.-(KendallDad1030)

Hi Everyone! Just to let you know "Mini Me" turned 1 Jan. 10th. Its
been a great year. "Mini Me" loves attention. He has no problem
jumping on some bodys shoulders. He's favorite game is fetch.If you are not
giving him your full attention he will steal socks money and even
heavy belts and bring them down the stairs. Often we are awoken by the sound
of the buckle going down the stairs.He is truly spoiled and
loved SO MUCH!!! My other cats love him also but my Devon has really grown
attached to him. Again, we thank you for such a wonderful
and loving boy. Will keep you updated.
                    Sincerely, Jean & Gary Stevens-Florida, NY

Thankyou so much for your list of poisonous plants on your website. I have spent months and many vet visits and tests trying to find out why my Persian keeps throwing up and having diarrhea to no avail. I tried changing to iams sensitive stomach dry food and dozens of other foods with limited results. I even cooked for my furkids for a long time but still my Romeo was getting thinner and thinner. I had finally resolved to have him put down if no further improvement was noted in the next two weeks. From your list of poisonous plants I found Virginia creeper which is abundant in our yard. My furkids are house pets and Romeo is not allowed outside but he came from an animal shelter as a stray adult and he sneaks out the back door . He doesn't leave the yard but sometimes I cannot get him to come in for an hour or so. He has been seen eating grass so maybe he is tasting the Virginia creeper. I will get rid of all i can find of it. Thankyou again you may have saved my precious Romeo's life.

Sincerely, Barb Edwards Kentucky
