Happy, Healthy Bloodline

JoD Exotic Cats & Kittens care for our animals with respect and dignity allowing them great opportunities to socialize with our entire family. Our grandchildren play with our animals on a daily basis when they come over after school and any other time they get an opportunity.

JoD Exotic Cats & Kittens work to continue the high standard of the Exotic SH cat breed as established by the Cat Fancier Association. You can read more about the breed and standards at The Cat Fanciers' Association, Inc – World's Largest Registry of Pedigreed Cats (cfa.org)

What are Exotic Short Hair Cats?

The Exotic SH cat is part of the Persian cat family that was developed to have the desirable traits and looks of a Persian but not the required daily maintenance to keep the cat’s coat looking amazing.

The major difference between the Persian and the Exotic SH cat is the hair on the exotic cat. The coat on an Exotic cat is short, dense, plush, and thick so that they have a rounded and soft “teddy bear” look that is easily maintained and does not mat or tangle.

A Furever Friend

Exotic SH cats are great pets that provides lots of love, affection, privacy, and play time for everyone in your home. Males do tend to be more affectionate than the females but since Exotics mature later than other breeds, spaying or neutering the cats at an early age works to eliminate those bad tendencies that adult cats tend to have with territorial marking, etc.
