Do you have a Mentor or did you have a Mentor?
Desirable = Yes and we still do? Good breeders ALWAYS have Peers or Mentors to talk with.
How long have you been breeding Maine Coons?
Desirable = More than 2 years would be desirable. This is very minimum, we recognize everyone starts somewhere but without a Mentor 2 years of “hard luck learning” is a minimum.

How many litters have you birthed?
Desirable = At lease one successfully on their own.
Do you have a written Health Guarantee?
Desirable = Yes, 1 is pretty standard for unproven bloodlines. 5 is desirable because these breeders have created their lines and have the confidence in their kittens. A long guarantee that the breeder will back up is vital.
