Our Breeding

Our familial cattery, located in the Yvelines, was created in 1994.
The Golden Oaks are large American oaks, golden in autumn, where our Norwegian Forest Cats exercise their climbing talents.
This affix also evokes the golden colour of our first Norwegian Forest Cats.
From our first meeting, we were seduced by the rustic and powerful aspect of Norwegian, his expressive eyes, intelligence, and perfectly balanced temper.
We also appreciate the fact that this race has appeared as a result of natural selection, it has not been created by man according to aesthetic or fashion.
Our particular fondness for warm colors led us quite naturally to turn to amber.
This natural mutation has the advantage of giving to the amber and amber carrier cats a very bright colour.
The amber colour is part of Norwegian heritage; it must be preserved as such, but should not influence the breeding projects at the expense of the NFO’s type and temper.

Our kittens grow up within the family, so they are very affectionate and close to us.
They also create emotional ties with our rough collie dog who is very gentle with them.
We aim to give birth to very sociable and well-balanced kittens, but also and especially in perfect health, that’s why all our breeding cats are negative tested for GSD4 and PK Def, and regularly tested by ultrasound for HCM and CIN.
