IMPORTANT:
My Name Is Gene... Those of You Who Have Visited This Site Regularly Are Aware My Wife, Carylen, has been Experiencing An Extremely Serious Medical Crisis... A Medical Condition That Would Never Allow Her To Return To Taking Care Of Her Beloved "Naked Little Babies" Again...
Sadly, After A Long and Courageous Battle, Carylen Passed Away At Our Home Surrounded By Our Family On Sunday, August 9th of this year... She Is Deeply Missed By Me, Her Family And All Who Knew Her.
Carylen Required A Lot Of My Attention During Her Illness, So Lately I've Not Been Able To Find The Time Required To Properly Return Calls Or Emails From Prospective Kitten Buyers... Nor To Give Our "Naked Little Babies" The Time, Attention Nor Love The Little Tykes Deserve.
Our Grieving Is Far From Over, and There Are Many Things Left Undone Over The Past Two Years That Must Be Caught Up On... These Things Will Continue To Take Much Of My Time... But The Most Important Are The Health, Welfare and Happiness Our Sphynx Cats And Kittens...
After 14 Years Of Raising And Breeding Sphynx Cats And Kittens, I Was Faced With The Hard Decision Of Whether To Downsize Or Possibly Liquidate Our Sphynx Cattery...
SOME GOOD NEWS...!!!
Our Daughter, Karen Rainwater, Who has Always Been Very Active In Our Sphynx Cattery, Has Kindly Offered To Partner With Me In The Running And Continued Operation Of "Intrigue's Sphynx Cattery"...
** Karen Will Be Birthing, Raising And Placing Our Sweet Little Sphynx Kitties From Her Lovely Home In Cabot, Arkansas...
** As A Result We Have Moved And Are Continuing To Move Many Of Our Incredible Sphynx Mothers Down To Her Place Where They Will Benefit From The Full Time Tender Loving Care They Will Receive From Karen and Her Family...
** I Will Be Focusing On Caring For The Adults And The Breeding Up Here In Michigan...
** I Expect To Still Have One Or Two Mothers With Me In Michigan, So We Plan To Have Some Kittens Available In Both Michigan and Arkansas...

(ATTENTION:
From now on PLEASE send your Emails to Karen at: Karack41@Yahoo.com ...
She will do her Very Best To Answer Your Emails Within 24 Hours...)

### VERY VERY "IMPORTANT": ###
It's important that you know that no matter which place any of our Sphynx kittens are currently located (In either Michigan or Arkansas)... Any of them can be picked up at or shipped from either of those places...
In Other Words...
If the kitten you want is now in Arkansas and you are closer to us in Michigan, we will bring that kitten to Michigan for you to pick up... And vice - versa...!!!
We're able to do this because we are traveling back and forth between Michigan and Arkansas on an almost monthly basis.
So feel comfortable choosing a Sphynx kitten from either Arkansas or Michigan...
And we'll get your baby to you from whichever of those two states is most convenient for you...!!!
PLEASE ALSO NOTE:
It's just not possible for us to get a kitten from one state to another just for someone to take a look at it... That much travel could end up being hard on the kitten and on the wallet ;-)
However, We'll do our very best in taking good pictures and in answering any and all your questions about any particular kitten you may be interested in...

AGAIN... WELCOME To Intrigue Sphynx Cattery’s “AVAILABE SPHYNX KITTENS PAGE”
We sure do appreciate Your interest in our Sphynx… And hope You have a Great time during Your visit with us...!!!
We feel the Sphynx Cat is one of the most beautiful and desirable creatures on Earth… And we wish that every home and family could experience the unique loving nature of these “Naked Little Babies”…
BUT…
We care very deeply about where and how our babies spend the rest of their lives…
It is extremely important to us that our kittens go to a very loving life-long home where they will receive the very best of care and love for the rest of their life.
If you feel you are one of those folks, we would appreciate the opportunity to assist You in making a decision regarding the Sphynx Breed… So, why not take a few minutes to email us at: Karack41@Yahoo.com
We can chat awhile and You can get to know us a bit better before you make your choice… ;-)
***************************
COST:
* Sphynx kittens around the world that are purchased from reliable, experienced and responsible breeders will cost You from $800 to $1,200 for PETS (Pets meaning they are altered before they go to their new home)…
* Breeder Sphynx are priced even higher...
* These prices are based on several criteria such as, whether you are looking for a pet or a breeder (altered or whole), whether you want show quality or not, degree of hairlessness, the pedigree, etc. etc.
* At Intrigue Sphynx Cattery our prices generally run somewhere in the middle (check the upper parts of this page for our currently SPECIAL REDUCED prices), and we are willing to work with most folks.
* Our usual procedure is to require a deposit of half of the cost up front with the other half being due when the Sphynx kitten/cat is ready to come to your home.
* We not only work with you before you take your little baby home, but are also there for You with any and all support or advice required after You are adopted by one of our kittens...
* By the way, we love being kept updated on all our little tykes and their new families... And we've made many fantastic new friends over the years while communicating back and forth about kittens, cats and life in general.
****************************
WHAT ARE YOU GETTING:
** All of our kittens come to You with a “Health Guarantee” and a “Written Contract” that not only protects You and Intrigue Sphynx cattery, but most importantly the Kitten!
** They arrive at Your home wormed and current on their vaccinations...
** You'll be given a "Health Records" folder where your kitten's shots, worming, vet visits, etc. have been recorded since birth... (This is a neat folder that you can continue using and referring to as needed).
** For Your peace-of-mind A Veterinarian's Health Certificate will be included ...
** Kittens sold as PETS will be spayed/neutered BEFORE leaving our home…
(They recover faster and with less stress while they are in familiar surroundings and still with their Mom and littermates... Males can be neutered between 12 and 14 weeks of age provided they meet the weight requirments... Females can be spayed at around 16 weeks if they also meet weight requirments...).
** Under No circumstances can we allow a kitten leave for Your home before the age of 12 to 16 weeks... (They absolutely NEED this time to be properly weaned...!!! Have the proper vaccinations and other health procedures taken care of...!!! To Strengthen their immune system... And to become socialized to the world they have been born into...!!! Etc.)... Don't worry... They will STILL be little kittens you will be able to help grow into enjoyable members of your family
*****************************
IMPORTANT NOTE:
I don't like sounding like I'm preaching to you or anyone else, but I would not be doing my duty to either you or the cats and kittens if I didn't at least attempt to enlighten you about a real problem when it comes to buying cats and/or kittens... Simply put it is: "The selling of kittens long before they are truely ready to go to a new home"...!!!
I've seen kittens being advertised, sold and allowed to go to a new home as young as 6, 8 and 10 weeks...
WHY SHOULD THIS MATTER TO YOU...???
Well, it may cost the kitten it's health or even it's LIFE...!!! And It may cost You a lot of money in Vet biils and medication...!!! It could also cost you all you paid for a kitten that wasn't able to make it...!!!
*********************
When you buy a purebred kitten it's not the same as getting a barn cat:
Barn cats have generations behind them where "Only The Strong Survive"...!!! This has resulted in Strong cats and kittens with Super Immune systems...!!!
Purebreds are Different: The more the breeders work at breeding in the characteristics that make the breeds unique and desirable to you and I, the more the immune system of that breed is compromised...!!!
RESULT: Kittens that "REQUIRE" more time to reach the stage where it is safe for them to go to their New Home with You...!!!
************************
WRAPPING UP:
There are lots of reputable and responsible breeders who are doing great jobs as breeders of the many purebred breeds... It is my hope that you will seek out and deal with one of them that suits YOU...!!! As always... The choice is yours...!!! You are the buyer... It's your money... And... The kitten will be Yours...!!! Whatever you decide, please do whatever is best for your new kitten... ;-)
Oh... One more bit that might come in handy: Make Sure It's A TRUE Purebred before you part with your money... In the Sphynx breed it is NOT a true Sphynx until their pedigree shows at least three generations with NO other breeds in their background...!!!
Don't get ripped off... Do a Lot of Checking... And... Ask Lots of QUESTIONS...!!!
***********************
HOW YOUR KITTEN GETS TO YOUR HOME:
Although we prefer you to come to our homes in Arkansas or Michigan to pick up your Sphynx Kitten or Cat, we do ship by Air to most destinations in the U.S.A and Canada. (We have even shipped overseas)
The cost of this shipping is paid by the purchaser, and currently runs about $200.00. However, this cost is constantly changing and will be determined at the time of shipping.
We and the airlines will only allow animals to be shipped in “fair” weather.
********************************
PAYMENT:
We accept cash, cashiers checks or money orders for payment. We can also accept PayPal (You can use your credit card at PayPal without signing up for an account)
**********************************
Below You’ll find pictures and a brief description of the Sphynx Kittens we have had available… This page will be updated as new litters arrive…
Enjoy Your Time Here… And… Thank You For Looking…!!!
========================================

*** We DO Expect To Have More Kittens The Spring Of 2010...!!!
You can read about our 2009 Sphynx Kittens in the upper portions of this page...
I attempt to get pictures out here as soon as kittens are available ...
But you should know I'm probably the worst photographer in the cat world... :-)
Every time I get the camera out to get some pictures of our babies I have a near nervous breakdown... They all think it's hilarious to frustrate my efforts to catch them in my view finder long enough to snap a half-way decent picture of them... And according to my wife,Carylen, they are right... It is hilarious...!!!)
BUT... I'll TRY... ;-)
