Did You Know?
A Peterbald cat's hair coat changes often throughout its lifetime, meaning the coat it is born with isn't necessarily going to remain the same in terms of appearance and quality.
There are 5 different Peterbald cat coat types including bald, flock or chamois, velour, brush, and straight. The straight type is a short hair coat with normal-looking whiskers and indicates that the individual lacks the hair loss gene.
If you bring a Peterbald cat into your home, you may want to teach them to get comfortable with clothing from a very young age. These partly bare body kittens catch a chill easily, and will appreciate soft, snuggly sweaters to help them retain their body warmth.

How are Peterbald cats with young kids..?
All cats are different and the environment your kittens are socialization in at an early age plays a role. We raise and maintain a cage free environment. All of our Peterbalds bred here for sale are used to being picked up, carried around and have been well socialized so they usually do very well with young children. Peterbald's are great family pets!

Nate, Just want to tell you my family loves our kitty. He is almost 6 months old now. He is so entertaining, sweet, playful, snuggly, curious, etc. He is great with all of our kids. Loves to chase them around and pounce on them when they walk by. He keeps our small dog busy and active. We are thoroughly enjoying him as a part of our family! Thank you!!!
Just a quick thank you for bringing little Boris into our lives. He is a lovely addition, and anyone who meets him falls in love with him.
He’s well behaved, playful, and loves to be around people. 
We feel lucky to have him! Thank you,

When you go without animals for so long, when you live scared of the allergic reaction your child could have to one for so many years, you forget. We had forgotten what loving an animal and being loved back feels like. These kitties are so much a part of our family now and the love that we get back from them daily honestly fills my heart so much. We picked them up from the vet yesterday and were greeted with so many snuggles and kisses. I didn’t know how much they would mean to us, especially in just 6 short weeks. Thank you so much for this incredible gift, we couldn’t love them more.
We adopted Willow from Tunies two years ago and she has brought so much joy into our lives. Her personality is so sweet, loving, playful and curious. She follows us around the house and comes when we call like a puppy! Tunie is kind and professional and makes the adoption process so easy. Our experience with Tunie was so positive that we decided to adopt again and are excitedly waiting for another “baby” to add to our family.
We loved our experience working with Tunies so much that we did it twice! Both our girls are so amazing and a part of the family. They are given a great start in life and Andrea is extremely knowledgeable and always willing to answer any questions. I have recommended them to any and all who ask about our Siberians and will continue to do so.

We loved having gotten our kitten through Nate's Peterbald Cattery! The process was so simple and we couldn’t be more thrilled to have worked through Nate. Our little Leo is cute as can be too.

My two Nate’s kittens are wonderful companions and beautiful cats. Andrea did an excellent job raising intelligent, playful, happy, well-mannered and confident kittens. They are affectionate without being needy. They love getting a tickle and a cuddle and are also content just following me room to room to be able to sit nearby. Working with Andrea was a pleasure, she truly loves all her cats and kittens. I highly recommend Nate's Peterbald Cattery Cats.

Me and my fiancée bought our kitten from Peterbald cattery in April 2015. Morgan, our cat, is the most wonderful pet I have ever owned.

We got Cooper a year and a half ago and Cali about 6 months ago. Andrea was so helpful not only in answering questions before we brought home our first kitten, but after as well. I remember texting her about a few little things here and there she was always quick to come back with answers and resolutions. The kittens come home already litter box trained, it is so nice that Andrea takes extra time to make sure the kittens are well loved and ready for your home!

I have researched about the Peterbald breed a lot, being an allergy sufferer. One day I looked at Peterbald breeders in MN and found Andrea. Not only did she live under a mile away from me, she was so knowledgeable and helpful. I went to her house to play with some of her kittens and see if I had any allergic reaction, I didn’t! I immediately put a little white kitten on hold. He was the cutest thing I have ever seen. Andrea told me I could visit him anytime I wanted until it was time for him to come live with me. When I got my little sweetie home, I was astounded at how personable he was, already litter-box trained and possibly the easiest thing in the world to take care of. I have gotten SO many compliments on his outgoing nature and how loving and sweet he is. I attribute how incredible of a cat he is due to Andrea. She cares so much about each and every kitten that leaves her home. If you ever have questions or concerns, she goes above and beyond for you and the cat long after the cat comes to live with you. Finding Andrea and her kitties was one of the best things that could have happened to me. She is no average breeder and her cats are truly something special.

Nate….Mojo is doing great. He is a great traveler. He traveled 2 hours to and home from our cabin on Rice Lake by Richmond when we stayed there 2 days last weekend. He has made himself at home in our homes. We love him so much. HE LOVES TO PLAY. He also likes to eat! He is not picky about food. He has lots of energy and he has a calm and laid back personality. He is the perfect kitten for us. How did you know that? Thank you….
