Sophine is our new program, Exotics (Shorthaired Persians). We are using a combination of our current Persian lines (Lox-Nott) and the help of Gina Hargett of Cotn Hill Persians & Exotics to give this program a great foundation. While we are using our Persian lines in our new program all Exotics (ESH/ELH) will be registered under the Sophine cattery.

Sophine was also created to showcase the other breeds we have been exhibiting and plan to exhibit in the future. While there are no immediate plans to apply, it is and eventual goal of mine to enter into the CFA judging program. For now, we're just having fun!

ABOUT US
Our cats are first and foremost, our beloved pets. We only have a few litters a year and kittens are raised in our bedrooms to ensure the most socialization as possible. As part of their socializing, kittens receive baths regularly starting at 6 weeks. They also receive a very high quality food diet including Royal Canin, Iams, Nutro; as well as a partial raw meat diet. Kittens receive their vaccinations and are de-wormed at 8 and 12 weeks of age. Our cats come from PKD Negative lines but individual PKD test can be done per request. All of our kittens are sold with a health guarantee and are clear of FeLV and FIP.

DEDICATION
I would not have found my love of the Persian breed in the Cat Fancy if it wasn't for the woman who started it all, my mother Yoonai Staples, founder of Lox-Nott Cattery. She is my inspiration, my mentor and my friend. She knew how much I would love showing and gave me a beautiful little Blue Classic Tabby Persians named "Blue". After his very first show, I was hooked! Since then I have shown almost every weekend with my mother and I wouldn't trade any of that time for the world. I am truly thankful she has allowed me to be included in her success,Thank you Mom
