About Us

Welcome, we are situated in the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains of Tennessee, only a small drive away from Knoxville, Tennessee. I have raised cats from my own multi-generational bloodlines since 2006. I am dual registered with TICA and CFA. I had the great fortune to place cats with many wonderful homes (typical repeat clients) and even a few celebrities.

Early on breeding, I was introduced to the Maine Coon Cat. It was rumored that some whereas large or larger than the Savannah with a completely different temperament (extremely gentle/docile) and low energy level. I wondered if such a cat was possible. Such a fantastic cat does exist but many bloodlines have issues.

Even with proper screening finding quality Maine Coons is very difficult. I had cats from so-called top bloodlines from top catteries and found I had to remove them from my program due to undesirable traits.

Our vision is to select the wildest looking lynx-like Maine Coons with optimal health and competently sound temperament. We have a fully stocked NICU for kittens. This includes two incubators and all the bottle feeding items.

All of our kittens are raised in our home, underfoot. The main kitten area is an entire 2,000 sqft area in our house. Which is a cat’s paradise full of toys/trees/etc. It is organized chaos that is always clean and well maintained.

Kittens are allowed throughout our entire house, the main kitten area is for learning to use the litter-box and also being in a safe area at night. When raising our kittens we apply what we call a "Kitten Development Program" that is based off; Puppy Culture by Jane Messineo Lindquist (Killion).

LOVING LYNX is a dual registered cattery with both CFA and TICA. We believe in breeding responsibly, which means testing the parents of each litter to make sure they are negative or normal for specific health conditions. All of our adult cats in our breeding program are DNA health tested prior to reproducing.
