Welcome to DesertCrown, a small, family-run British Shorthair cattery nestled in the heart of Phoenix, Arizona. Here, every kitten isnât just a petâtheyâre a cherished member of our family, raised with boundless love, patience, and care.
My name is Nadine, and alongside my children, we pour our hearts into raising each and every kitten that joins our home. Watching these tiny lives growâfrom fragile newborns to confident, playful companionsâfills our days with joy. My children spend countless hours cuddling, playing, and bonding with the kittens. For them, the kittens are more than just furry friendsâthey're a source of calm, joy, and emotional connection in a home full of energy, creativity, and big feelings. The soothing purr of a kitten has a magic all its own.
Living in Phoenix, where the heat often makes outdoor life difficult, Iâve come to deeply appreciate how well cats fit into desert living. Theyâre clean, quiet, and perfectly suited for apartmentsâsomething many pet lovers here need, especially when dogs arenât an option due to rental restrictions. British Shorthairs, in particular, are ideal companions: affectionate, relaxed, and simply stunning.
At DesertCrown, our focus is on health, temperament, and early socialization. Every kitten grows up in a loving, active environment where theyâre handled daily, exposed to household life, and nurtured to become confident, affectionate cats. I have every intention of raising show-quality American British Shorthair kittens, and I take great pride in the beauty and gentle personalities weâre helping shape.
When you welcome a DesertCrown kitten, youâre not just getting a beautiful companionâyouâre becoming part of our extended family. Weâre here to support you every step of the way, from adoption to aftercare.
All our kittens come with:
Thorough veterinary health checks
Age-appropriate vaccinations and deworming
30 days of free health coverage through Trupanion
A written Health Guarantee & Sales Agreement
TICA registration (where applicable)
