YES! We offer a 3 year Health Guarantee against genetic defects ( Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (HCM) (heart disease), Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) (muscle weakness), and PK-def (Pyruvate Kinase Deficiency). We pride ourselves in comprehensive, proactive testing within our breeding program. All of our Maine Coons undergo DNA testing through Optimal Selection, screening for over 40+ genetic mutations commonly found in Maine Coons, including HCM, SMA, and Pk-def. Additionally, our Maine Coons undergo routine echocardiograms performed by a Board Certified Cardiologist. Our cattery voluntarily complies with the TICA Responsible Breeder Program, reflecting our commitment to ethical, transparent practices. To maintain a clean, healthy environment, we run PCR tests to keep our cattery free from respiratory illness and parasites. When you bring home a Living Room Tigers Maine Coon kitten, he/she will have received two full veterinary exams, two FVRCP vaccine boosters, routine deworming, and a veterinary health certificate, giving your new family member the best possible start. In the event that a genetic health issue arises, we offer three solutions:
- Return your Maine Coon to us and receive a replacement kitten.
- Keep your Maine Coon and receive reimbursement for vet bills up to the amount of the purchase price.
- Return and receive refund of purchase amount.
