I would like to express my gratitude to the Vintage kennel and Svetlana for the beautiful Devon Rex kitten. You can immediately feel a conscientious and caring attitude towards your pets. We got a kitten that is absolutely socialized, active, friendly, accustomed to etiquette. Svetlana always answered all questions in detail and helped with advice and opinion. Thank you for the new member of our family!

What can I say? This has been such an incredible journey. Svetlana constantly kept me updated with pictures and videos. Any questions I had she promptly answered. There wasn’t a single worry I had that Svetlana couldn’t handle. Often times I believed the entire experience was too good to be true but I was proved that experiences this magical can truly exist. Thank you so much Svetlana and to everyone at Vintage Cattery, from the bottom of my heart!

Today I am very happy that the long-awaited Tilda finally arrived in my arms. I am very grateful to Vintage Cattery for allowing me to have such a beautiful Tilda. They took good care of Tilda even better than I expected. I can’t believe the cat I received is 100% quality. Thank you very much to them.

I recently had the pleasure of adopting a kitten from VINTAGE DEVON REX CATTERY in Moscow Russia, and I couldn't be happier with my experience. From start to finish, Lidiya Sidayakova displayed exceptional professionalism, care, and a ton of patience!
My new kitten is not only beautiful but also healthy and well-socialized. It's clear that Lidiya prioritizes the well-being of her cats thorough health checks and vaccinations provided before adoption.
Throughout the process, communication was seamless. Lidiya was always prompt in responding to my questions, providing detailed information about her kittens. She was AMAZINGLY patient and helpful, ensuring I felt confident and informed every step of the way. I did change my mind a few times and she said, I just want you to be happy.
One of the standout aspects of my experience was the delivery of my little guy. Lidiya arranged for a courier to deliver the kitten straight to my door in Northern California. This made a huge difference, ensuring the kitten arrived safely and comfortably. I highly recommend courier service over cargo!
I was provided with all necessary documentation, including health records and pedigree information.
I highly, highly recommend Lidiya if you are looking for a wonderful furry friend for your family!

Parenting a Devon Rex kitten from Vintage cattery has been a wonderful experience. The kitten flew from Russia to Kuwait stopping at Oman. Also, communication was great and as expected. I would highly support and recommend Vintage Cattery for people who are fascinated by the Feline Catus.

As a breeder you are always looking for that one special cat.
In my search I had the opportunity to meet Lidiya from Vintage cattery.
She had a special little man for me that I was looking for.
After good conversations and the exchange of important papers, I received my boy in the Netherlands. A fantastic little boy, well socialized. Because of our frequent contact, I already knew that Lidiya is very fondly with all her animals. And my boy also confirmed this by behaving like a happy, fearless, cheerful male. The entire process from first contact to the arrival of my special little boy went to my complete satisfaction. In the meantime, it has been a while and Lidiya and I maintain contact on a regular basis. All in all, my experience with Vintage cattery can certainly be called positive.

Our decision to adopt a kitten from Russia was completely unexpected, but seeing this precious creature and hearing such positive recommendations, we knew we had to pursue it. We're so glad we did! The entire adoption process with the VINTAGE cattery was smooth and easy to understand. And now, this little miracle is finally home with us. Thank you so much to VINTAGE for such a wonderful kitten!

We got 2 kittens from Vintage. The process were seamless, they took care of everything, kept us updated with shipping. The kittens arrived without issue. They were happy, healthy and well socialized. They also came with a pet passport that had all of their shots and microchip info. I would def buy from Vintage again if we want another kitten.

I reserved my Kitten through vintage cattery in March when my kitten was 3 weeks old. I just picked her up yesterday and she is the most social, playful, friendliest kitten I have ever owned. The wonderful breeders do a very good job at socializing their kittens before they go to their homes. The kitten we recieved was named Lovely, we renamed her Femi. She is a dwelf and just so extraordinary. If your considering getting a kitten from vintage, I highly recommend you get one through them. I already have my dad considering to buy one.

I have my Vintage Elf Sphynx Kitten less than 24 hours and she is just amazing. I was kept informed every step of the way. I was VERY worried about getting an overseas kitten. I was aware of many scams that happen overseas. I am on several sphynx lovers lists and hear horror stories of that happening. I did my research, talked to many of her happy customers and made sure they were real people and not fake accounts. I kept asking for pictures with my kitties name in the back ground to make sure they had the kitten they were selling me. I was never rejected this request and have a few video's of them. I was given the option with in the written contract for testing for other feline tests such as FIP, Felv and FIV. Vintage wanted to make sure my cat was healthy and that I would be happy. I am not sure if this original complaint is just hateful to ruin Vintage Cattery or if they are misinformed of another cattery using this name as a scam. However, my experience has been great and I will happy talk to anyone who has questions and share my experience. Here is me and my Lilac Elf Girl. This is her right out of the carrier, she was in my arms and purring.

I don’t know how anyone could write anything remotely negative about vintage. Svetlana is easily the most informative, communicative breeder I came in contact with during my search for a Bambino. I was so skeptical of importing due to how rampant the scamming has become in the cat community.. I did not leave her alone for several days - I messaged her constantly to ask questions, ask for documents, references. Each time I messaged she responded within minutes, even with the time difference. I sent her my deposit, she walked me thru the entire process, which was a little confusing because I had never used western union before, she made it super easy and stress free. She sent me photo updates whenever I asked up until delivery Delivery was smooth, her broker is awesome too - she helps you with all of that information, and it’s all very affordable. When my Stonk arrived he was happy, curious, playful. He is literally the most well socialized animal I’ve ever come in contact with, he is gentle with my kids, my other animals, he’s slept in our bed since he arrived, he is litter trained, eats well. I quite literally have zero complaints - I am ecstatic. If you are trying to decide whether to buy or not from Vintage, please reach out to Lana on Instagram and ask her for my cell phone number, I will walk you through the process.

I just received my blue bambino sphynx kitten from vintage cattery yesterday and let me tell you she is the most affectionate, friendliest and well behaved kitten I’ve ever encountered. You can really tell that this cattery puts their time and affection into these kittens. At first I was very skeptical about purchasing a kitten abroad but after talking to multiple references given by Svetlana and even having a video chat with her with the kitten, I felt comfortable and reassured. She was able to send me photos and videos upon request without any issues and answered all my questions very politely:) I will definitely be purchasing my next kitten from her and will recommend her to all my friends and to anyone in the market for a sphynx:)

I recently just purchased my first Sphynx kitten from Vintage Cattery and picked her up at JFK airport on February 12 th 2021. She is absolutely BEAUTIFUL, clean, loving and very playful. My experience with Vintage Cattery has been exceptional. I received weekly photos and videos of her since December 2020 when I purchased her from Vintage Cattery. I would most definitely recommend Vintage Cattery to anyone looking to purchase sphynx or bambino kittens. I am grateful I choose Vintage Cattery to purchase my baby. I would definitely purchase more from Vintage Cattery.

My experience with Vintage cattery was wonderful! I picked up my boy from the airport in NYC last night and he is perfect. He is so sweet and has been purring since he got out of his crate. The whole process was smooth, and they kept sending messaging asking if I was nervous about anything, reassuring me and answering all my questions. It was scary to send money to Russia with all the scams but I researched Vintage thoroughly and I was confident I wanted to get my kitten from them. My boy is social and affectionate. I could not be more happy and if I were to get another kitten it would absolutely be from Vintage!

This past month I got a 7 month old sphynx kitten from Vintage, and I’ve been very pleased with my experience. While I acknowledge that at times I was nervous - there are a lot of scams online, and sending money through Western Union is generally discouraged - Vintage was empathetic to my concerns, and was able to get me in contact with some of their past customers for references. I was not scammed, and received a healthy, socialized kitten within the month. Despite flying from Russia to Michigan USA, the kitten I received was healthy and friendly, and I’ve already recommended Vintage to multiple of my friends. He’s a beautiful cat, and I plan to get another cat from Vintage in the future.

We now have the kitten and she is wonderful! Gets along with my kids and other pets in the house. She is also very agile yet calm. Overall, I most definitely recommend for everyone interested!20:37

I picked up my kitten yesterday evening from the Miami International Airport. He is the sweetest cat I have ever met. This is my first pet cat and he exceeded all of my expectations. He is super sweet, well-behaved, and healthy. Vintage really does an amazing job and making sure their babies are healthy and socialized. I have never met a cat so amazingly socialized in my life before. My kitten is 8 months old now and is as perfect as can be. I know he came from an amazing place who loves their animals. Vintage is extremely professional and made sure to answer all my questions and guide me through the whole process as smooth as possible. I definitely recommend them 100% yes. I will never go to anyone else besides them. They were super patient even though there were a lot of inconveniences with flights due to COVID-19. They always had excellent customer service. Thank you Vintage and I am glad to be a good reference in the United States.

We have recently purchased two kittens from Vintage Cattery (October 2020) They were very professional, kind and whenever i had a question i got a prompt answer. The both kittends (one girl and one boy) travelled safely all the way from Russia to Switzerland. We kept eachother up to date during the whole process and i felt absolutely safe with them. I can only recomment buying kittes from that cattery! They're stunning and super affectionate! Both got along with our two adult Sphynx within 2 days of their arrival! They're both healthy, social and you can tell they were raised professionally (not afraid of any hoovering machine and they're used to bathe too). Both came with a passport all documents. Plus they are from excellent parents! Both are so beautiful! Top breeding qualities! Both experienced a lot of love growing up - you can easily tell that! The whole process went super smooth and we are extremely happy with our kittens! During our waiting time for the delivery, we got updated with videos and professional pictures, we are super satisfied! Thank you so much! We love our little miracles! If we buy another one, we're surely buying another kitty from Vintage Cattery !

I bought two beautiful babies from Vintage Cattery, A female sphynx in 2017 and a male bambino sphynx in 2019. I was beyond pleased with Vintage Cattery. I had the pleasure of dealing with Antonio, he not only answer all of my thousands of questions but he did so in a timely fashion. When my family and I decided it was time for a new addition we did not hesitate in contacting Vintage Cattery. What I love most about this place and why I would highly recommend them is all based on the personality of my two cats. We thought we lucked out on how sweet our girls was but our boy is FABULOUS! Vintage Cattery make sure that the buyer is well informed during the process and you can tell by the cats demeanor that they are very well cared for. I purchased one using PayPal and the other using Western Union, both of these payment methods work without a hitch. I will definitely be back for a 3rd!

I recently purchased a wonderful sphynx kitten from Vintage Cattery. I am in California so i was uncomfortable to purchase a kitten from across the world but Vintage Cattery made everything very easy and answered all my questions promptly and had tons of experience shipping kittens safely. They sent me all the flight information and pictures of my kitten when they dropped her off at the airport and I was able to track her flight. Now I can say that my kitten, Rose, is the best cat I’ve ever had, she is extremely loving and cuddles all the time, she is very playful too. She is very healthy and very happy and I would definitely like to purchase my next cat from Vintage Cattery.

I had a great experience with Vintage. Sure, buying online from across the world is scary, but it all went smoothly. They kept me posted on the flight, sent pics of her before, and even checked in to make sure I picked her up. Her travel crate was super nice and soft and they made sure she had plenty of food and water. My kitten is well socialized and an angel. At her first vet check, my vet made several comments about how healthy she was and that she came from a place that really cared. If I get another kitten in the future, I will definitely use Vintage.

Lydia was very knowledgeable and walked us through the entire process. She always had time to answer our many questions. The kittens arrived alert and healthy. They are well socialized and very affectionate. They are a great fit for our family.

I'm buying another Elf or Dwelf soon from them again.

I researched this Cattery extensively prior to purchase. I was cautious about using western union, until I learned why they use this method. Vintage Cattery has been scammed by people who have purchased their cats via other methods and then retrieved the payment after receiving the cat. I believe one person actually stole 5 cats from them by using PayPal and reporting the transactions after receiving the cats. Through research, I found many positive references and could not find any bad information about the Cattery, and so I took the plunge. I have now purchased 4 cats from vintage: 1 bambino, 3 regular sphynx (one for my mother). Whilst purchasing my first kitten (Bam Bam), I actually picked up and transported another kitten for a lady in my state (Ohio). During this pick up (at Dulles international), I met a man who was purchasing his fifth cat from vintage! From owning 4 of their cats and having spoken to numerous individuals who also own their cats, I don’t have a single bad thing to say about this Cattery. The health of my cats is perfect. Their personalities are exceptional! You could not ask for more loving and socialized babies. You don’t get cats this well balanced from somebody who is not taking care of them properly. They are outstanding. I stand behind this Cattery and wouldn’t go anywhere else. There are a lot of dirty breeders out there, vintage is not one of them. My email or phone number can be obtained through the Cattery and used as reference to anybody considering purchasing who wants a true and honest review. Julie, Ohio USA

We recently purchased two kittens from Vintage in February 2019 (one sphynx, one bambino). Both kittens are extremely social and very healthy. The entire process was very easy and Vintage was always available to answer any of my questions promptly. We were given references. Vintage was very knowledgeable about the entire process of shipping the kittens overseas. The kittens came with health certificates and pedigrees as promised and I have been able to register both of my kittens with TICA. They provided me with HCM scans of both of their parents, photos of their parents, and videos of the kittens. Once the kittens travel was booked I was given their flight information and was able to track them. They have multiple kings and queens which is why they are able to have multiple kittens with different dates of birth as they have multiple litters. They also are able to have sphynx, elf, and bambino kittens because they have those varieties as kings and queens. Their Cattery name is registered with TICA which is why they have the TICA logo. Like i said, I had no problems registering my kittens with TICA with the pedigrees and certificates I was given. I am happy to be a US reference for them and I’m looking forward to getting another kitten from Vintage in the future !

I have 3 very healthy happy cats from Vintage! Working with them has been a pleasure and the whole process went very smoothly! There are two ladies that work closely together at Vintage. Between two households, it is easy to have several litters at once. Not sure what the point this poster is trying to make but my experience, this “complaint” is completely false!
