Price and budget

How much does a European Shorthair kitten cost?

Europe

The price of a European registered as a breed remains variable depending on the lineage, the reputation of the cattery, identification, vaccination and the level of socialization of the kitten. As this breed is less sought after commercially than others, its availability can also influence the price.

Purchase price

It all depends on where your kitten comes from

To adopt a purebred European, it is preferable to turn to a serious breeder capable of providing clear identification, health monitoring and precise information on the breeding cats.

A price that seems too good to be true?

  • An abnormally low price should prompt you to have the identification, health, and breeding conditions checked.
  • Ask for the relevant screenings of the breeding animals and a clear contract.
  • The maintenance budget over several years often exceeds the purchase price.
