Welcome to Joie De Vivre Cattery
✨ Where beauty meets health, and every kitten is raised with love and purpose.
At Joie De Vivre, we specialize in raising truly extraordinary Maine Coon kittens. Our lines are known for their iconic lion-like muzzles, exceptional size, and rare color combinations — including silver shaded, red, black, blue, tortoiseshell, as well as kittens with blue eyes, odd eyes, and polydactyl paws.
🐾 Our Kings
We are proud of our two stunning sires:
• Nuage — our legendary blue male with massive bone structure and a regal lion’s profile. His broad muzzle isn’t just beautiful — it also supports wider tear ducts, which help keep his offspring’s eyes clear and healthy. Every kitten he sires inherits this unmistakable look.
• Svetozar — our red-shaded odd-eyed stud. This rare gene gives 50% of his kittens dazzling odd-colored or deep blue eyes. According to folklore, odd-eyed cats bring happiness and good luck to their families.
👑 Our Queens
Half of our queens are Shaded Maine Coons, admired for their silky silver coats and mesmerizing emerald eyes. The other half are carefully selected Tortoiseshell, Blue, and Tabby Maine Coons, including Polydactyls — all chosen from our own champion bloodlines, born and raised in our home.
🏡 Raised with Love & Freedom
Our cats are beloved family members. They roam freely in our home and spend time daily on our large, secure outdoor veranda. Every breeder cat is genetically tested and 100% clear of inherited diseases.
🌿We are excited to announce that within the next week, we are expecting a very special litter of silver-shaded Maine Coon kittens — with the iconic lion-like faces that are the hallmark of our lines.🌿
The sire of this litter is our famous blue male, Nuage. The dam, Estersita, is a shaded beauty with mesmerizing emerald-green eyes and a silky silver coat. Together, these two majestic cats consistently produce kittens with extraordinary type: lion-like faces, expressive eyes, and shimmering coats that command attention.
🌿 Upcoming Summer Litters! 🌿
This summer, we are expecting litters in a variety of coat colors, including red, black, blue and tortoiseshells, as well as kittens with blue eyes, odd eyes, and even polydactyls!

🌿 We Don’t Just Breed Cats — We Educate Owners
On our website, you’ll find a growing Health Library & Shop page — created for cat lovers who want their pets to live long, vibrant, healthy lives.
We talk about food, digestion, immunity, aging, natural support, and more — in simple language, from real experience.
🌿 7-Year Health Guarantee
Yes, we really do offer a 7-year genetic health guarantee — not as a slogan, but because we truly believe in what we do. We’ve spent years learning what makes cats thrive — and we’re happy to share that knowledge with others.
It’s not about being perfect. It’s about being mindful, consistent, and truly caring.
That’s how we raise our kittens — with intention, with love, and with everything we’ve learned.
And when you see what goes into that, you realize our kittens are actually a beautiful deal.
