Litters expected and planned 2025


It is most important to us that all our kittens grow in normal, happy homes with people taking good care of them. At the moment, we have one intact and three neutered/sterilized Ocicats living at our home, and two breeding females and one male placed in good foster homes. We don’t want to overload the cat population at our home, and on the other hand do not want to place our retired, neutered cats to new homes. People are always welcome to visit us to meet us and our cats!

We breed with healthy ocicats with nice temperaments. We test for FIV and FeLV and have our breeding cats blood typed. Our home and foster homes are tested for dermatophytes regularily. We also have our breeding cats’ hearts ultrasound scanned and test for PRA and PK as needed.

We have kittens! Our Coffee Litter was born on May 8, 2026. The dam is CH FI*Vinkeä Metka-Maisa, and the sire is our homebred male CH KCH FI*Northalla Suomalainen Sisu. Both parents are silver spotted Ocicats (OCI ns 24).

Sisu is from our Finland Litter, which was bred under a special permit granted by the Finnish Cat Association as part of a carefully managed programme to increase the genetic diversity of the Ocicat breed. You can read more about Sisu’s background on the Finland Litter page.

The Coffee Litter was born and is being raised in our foster home in Tampere.

Maisa gave birth to all five kittens with ease and has cared for them just as devotedly as she did her previous Board Game Litter. The kittens are growing quickly and, true to the Ocicat temperament, there is plenty of energy and mischief to go around!

Would you like to adopt a Northalla ocicat kitten?

We value most the health and well-beign of the cats. Our breeding females and males are always tested for contagious diseases (FIV, FeLV, microsporum canis) and blood typed. We aim in checking the lines of the breeding cats as well as possible, in order to choose a good match of female and male cat.

Our cats share the same space as the humans, and they accompany us in everyday living at home, and even share our bed if they so wish (and they almost always do). Also the kittens are used to our normal daily routines and they will be socialized so that it’s quite easy for them to get accustomed to their new homes.

The kittens will be ready for their new homes at the age of 14-16 weeks or later, dewormed, and vaccinated for cat flu and panleukopenia. Other vaccinations can be agreed. Usually we don’t sell a kitten before the owner candidate has visited us but for people living in other countries we are more flexible. We would like to learn to know the owner(s) of our kitten so that we can be sure that the kitten has a reliable and good home. We offer our life-long support to the new owner(s) – the life span of the ocicat can be up to 15-20 years. You can always ask us anything related to cats. Also we would love to hear how you’re doing, from time to time, and we would be exited to even see some photos. 🙂
