Kittens are able to go home at 12 weeks - 14 weeks old.
Your kitten will come with, or have had, the following:
* This list does not hold cash value.
We make sure kittens are clean, healthy, and have that sweet new baby smell when they go home to you. ♡
Kitten Information & Phone/Video Calls:
We do not allow visitors to our home for the safety and health of our cats and kittens - this is normal for most in-home catteries.
However, I take great pride in our home and cattery and I understand there are too many scams out there - so I am more than happy to schedule a time to talk with you either on the phone or with a video call!
The technology for video chatting has become very easy to use on any smartphone or tablet if you've never done it before. There are multiple free options available I'd be happy to help you set up if needed!
I always have tons of additional pics and videos that never make it to social media that I can send you of each kitten, and I am happy to video chat or talk on the phone to help you get to know me, the kittens, and answer any questions you have. 
I can share additional pictures and videos before adoption applications are open if you are interested in a particular kitten and would like more info, or if you are wanting to see the differences between the kittens before applying.
Just reach out to request them using our contact form! ♡
Security Deposits:
To reserve an available kitten, we require a $500 deposit which goes towards the total adoption cost.
* The deposit is a commitment to your kitten and is non-refundable.
Security deposits may be paid digitally using PayPal or Venmo, or by using cash or check within 3 days of the reservation agreement to allow time to schedule for meeting. If not paid, the reservation is not final and the kitten will be made available to the next applicant.
* We do not have a reservation list or take reservation deposits ahead of time.
Kittens (listed below) will clearly reflect if they are under observation, available, or reserved. I announce via social media and our email contact list when kittens are going to be made available to apply for.
Kittens are made available to adopt once they are old enough to have been properly evaluated for personality, color, and health.
When kittens are available to be adopted, there will be a clear Adoption Application listed AT THE TOP of this page.
Please see our ADOPTION PROCESS page for more details.
We are located in a rural township just outside of East Lansing, Michigan - about 20 minutes from Michigan State University.
If you look up the Meridian Township Farmers' Market, this is very near to where we normally meet people for kitten pickups and is a good reference if you are wanting to get an idea of driving times.
For the physical and biological safety of our family, home, and cattery we do not allow visitors or give out our home address.
This is normal for most catteries in the US.
We typically schedule kitten pick-ups at our local police station, which has video monitored 'safe exchange' spaces for us to meet at.
* We can coordinate to meet at another video-monitored safe exchange location if requested. There is a network of them nationally we can reference if requested.
We may charge a delivery fee depending on how far we will have to drive to meet.
For out of state adopters:
We will meet at the Lansing Airport for free if you fly in - or if you drive in and don't want to come to our normal meet location by the Meridian Farmers' Market, we can look at other safe-exchange locations closer to a highway or the MI boarder for a delivery fee.
Most airlines allow kittens to be checked in as a carry on in an appropriate sized carrier for a small fee,
You will want to call the airline you fly with to make sure of their policies.
This is something you'd have to line up yourself, but I could recommend the supplies you would need and safe hotels near our Lansing or Detroit Airports for you to stay at (depending on flights and timing, sometimes flights don't line up to fly in and out same day) if you want to do things this way.
We do not ship kittens in cargo or work with flight nannies for pet kitten adoptions, we live too far from our international airport in Detroit to be able to do this reliably.
Kittens are priced between 2,500 - 3,500 dollars.
* Individual price varies due to the 'true to breed' qualities of each kitten, and their rarity of color.
* The price listed for each kitten is the total including MI sales tax for full transparency. There is no 'cash discount' as we do not cut corners.
Your kitten will come with their TICA and/or CFA purebred registration, our health guarantee, veterinary wellness exams, veterinarian administered age-appropriate vaccinations, spay or neuter, and de-worming.
* All kittens are fixed before leaving us. We never sell intact kittens or breeding rights to the general public. Catteries who practice early spay and neutering, have vet records showing proof of ESN of their prior litters, and who are registered with both CFA and TICA are welcome to ask about potential breed quality kittens.
We do offer a 250 dollar discount off the total if you purchase 2 kittens at the same time and/or for any returning adopters who want another kitten later on.
---------
These prices are standard for catteries like ours that provide the correct standard of veterinarian care for their kittens, show their cats, import/export cats internationally where perfect health is required, and are on good standing with their other local catteries.
Please keep in mind that rising veterinarian costs and feeding a high-quality diet are the biggest strain on ethical catteries.
--- If you're paying for a 'cheaper' kitten, you are supporting a scam artist who cuts corners to save on costs. ---
There is no way they are spending the money necessary to take care of their kittens and then selling them for such low prices. Going to the veterinarian for wellness checks and paying for vaccinations and regular deworming alone costs thousands of dollars for ethical breeders.
This isn't even including the costs spent on genetic testing all parent cats, feeding a high-quality diet, providing enclosures, toys, enrichment, climbing trees, enough litter to be cleaned daily, and so much more that goes in to keeping so many cats and kittens in a healthy way.
These "discount" back yard breeders are not taking proper care of their cats and kittens when you stop and think about what they're doing vs what they are charging.
Also consider, unregistered kittens are not purebred and are not Ragdolls - how is it even possible to say they are when there is no proof of pedigree?
You could have gone to a shelter and rescued an unpapered, Siamese colored kitten at that point for much less and with much less risk.
And, bad breeders will inbreed to get 'free' cats they can use (this is a sad and horribly common practice, be very wary of anyone if they claim they don't have / won't provide papers - it is often due to inbreeding!) and you end up with cats are unhealthy, and who don't look or act like the breed is supposed to.
This is also how the breed came to have issues with HCM and dwarfism & early death - which we have taken every measure to guard against here by working only with registration verified, health tested bloodlines.
These are just some of the reasons why it is so important to invest in an ethically bred kitten with a quality breeder who takes proper care of their cats and kittens!
Quality breeders are able to provide the vet records, genetic tests, and pedigree papers necessary to prove that their kitten fees are being used correctly towards the proper care of their animals.
At Mittenstar I do not do this for any sort of profit - I do this purely out of love for the breed. I will most likely never break even on the amount of money I've put into these cats - it took me years to save up my nest egg to invest into them.
And so, the adoption fees for these kittens are to maintain the quality of care they deserve - and to help preserve & raise the next generation of this wonderful breed. ♡
We accept Cash or Check *only* for the adoption fee.
Your kitten must be paid in full before they can go home with you.
Security deposits to reserve a kitten may be paid digitally using PayPal or Venmo.
Deposits may be paid using cash or check if delivered within 72 hours of the contract being signed, otherwise the kitten will be made available to the next applicant.
---
We take cash or check only for the final payment due to issues with the online payment fees now being set by online vendors.
Online platforms (like Paypal, Venmo, etc) all have fees around 3 - 4% of the total payment (which doesn't seem like much till you do the math on it), on top of sales tax, so we have moved back to taking cash or check payments for the final balance.
There is no 'cash discount' - our current prices are set so we don't have to adjust for inflation or fees.
Check payments must be clear 14 days / 2 weeks before kitten pick-up.
If paying in cash, it is fine to pay the day of pickup.
You are welcome to pay ahead, or to break up the total into multiple payment installments, as long as the kitten is paid for prior to being taken home.
* We reserve the right to cancel the sale of a kitten at any time at our discretion, for any reason. Refunds will be given only in the event of a cancelation that we initiate.

Katarina x Nikon

Baby Oak - RESERVED FOR SALY
Adoption Fee: -- 3,000 + 6% sales tax
Date of Birth: August 2025
Sex: Male
Color: Blue Point Bicolor
---
(Pictured here at 8 weeks old)
Purrsonality & Qualities:
Outgoing, confident, bright, loves being held, affectionate, loves to cuddle in bed.
Oak is so outgoing, silly, and bright, just like his mom Katarina! But he also has his dad Nikon in him, and loves to snuggle, is so laid back, and adores snuggling in bed with us. He is very affectionate and playful, and I could see him doing well in any kind of family dynamic, with kids or without, with other pets or alone as someone’s best friend. He is just a very adaptable and loving guy! He is going to be a *big* cat, he is the largest kitten of the season, and has such long legs and a very long tail already that he will eventually grow into. He loves to be held and will relax in my arms, and while he will flop when I hold him, his build is more on the ‘strong muscular’ side than the ‘slinky and floppy’ side. He will have a true Ragdoll coat, smooth, non-matting, and bunny-soft. He will not have the ‘trendy’ long coat you might see on Instagram, but rather will have a plush, thick, and smooth coat like both of his parents. This is actually how the Ragdoll is supposed to be! He is a blue bicolor with correct markings, and could be a potential show candidate for the right home. Or, just a gorgeous best friend! He has very bright blue eyes which I see him retaining as he ages!

Baby Maple - RESERVED FOR LIV
Adoption Fee: -- 3,000 + 6% sales tax
Date of Birth: August 2025
Sex: Male
Color: Seal Point Bicolor
---
(Pictured here at 8 weeks)
Purrsonality & Qualities:
Laid back, outgoing, confident, very affectionate, loves to cuddle in bed, playful and bright, has an adorable all white tail tip.
Maple is so sweet, confident, and laid back! He loves to be loved, and he adores snuggling up in bed with us! He loves being picked up and held, and he will sometimes ‘kiss’ me back when I kiss him. I think he will be quite the velcro cat as he grows up! He can be very silly during playtime, he loves to roll and wiggle just like his mom. But like his dad, he has a huge, muscular frame, and he can be totally laid back and cuddly when he’s ready to snuggle! He also has a TRUE white-tip on his tail! It’s like a little marshmellow! He is our first kitten to have a true white-tip, they’re pretty rare and totally adorable! He is a seal bicolor, so he will have dark-brown points, with a light cream body, a white inverted ‘V’ on his face, and white legs. He is correctly marked, and could be shown! He has stunning darker color around his eyes (his white mask goes right in between them), which gives him a very dramatic look. His eyes are a bright blue, a bit lighter than his siblings, but still a true-blue. He is going to be a large boy as he matures, and has a very dense, well muscled body! He is going to have a true Ragdoll coat. He will be long haired but not so fluffy that his coat matts, and it is smooth and bunny-soft.

Baby Aspen - RESERVED FOR SUZETTE
Adoption Fee: -- 3,000 + 6% sales tax
Date of Birth: August 2025
Sex: Male
Color: Seal Point Bicolor
---
(Pictured here at 8 weeks)
Purrsonality & Qualities:
Brave, sweet, loves to play, affectionate, very outgoing, loves to snuggle in bed.
Aspen is such a sweet, brave boy. He plays very well with his siblings, and then loves to come snuggle with me. He is a touch more laid back than his brothers, he loves to play, but he also loves to some and cuddle! He is very outgoing and loves to meet people, and is very confident, nothing really scares him, not even the vacuum. He adores being held and kissed, and is very relaxed when being picked up. He has a very large, muscular body for just a kitten, and is going to be a very good sized cat when mature! He just wants to be everyone’s best friend, and I could see him doing well with children or other pets, or as a single kitten being the center of someone’s world.
He is a seal bicolor and has a stunning ‘bicolor’ mask that rides right between his eyes and is very symmetrical. He does have a white collar that goes up onto his neck and onto his ears. His coat is very smooth and soft, and will mature into a true Ragdoll coat like both of his parents. He won’t be overly fluffy, which means his coat will not mat! This is actually true to the breed standard, and he will get fluffier with age without it being a pain to brush or keep clean.

Glimmer x Plum

Baby Pumpkin - PENDING RESERVATION
Adoption Fee: -- 3,000 + 6% sales tax
Date of Birth: August 2025
Sex: Male
Color: Lilac Lynx Colorpoint
---
(Pictured here at 8 weeks)
Purrsonality & Qualities:
Laid back, talkative, confident, affectionate, goes limp being held.
Pumpkin is a laid back, confident, loving little guy! He is always ready to be everyone’s best friend. He loves meeting people, loves to play, and he is super talkative! He loves to meow at us and will come up ‘meow’ for attention and love. It’s adorable! I expect him to be a velcro cat, he just loves to be loved. He goes limp when being held, does a fantastic Ragdoll Flop, and I could see him doing well with kids and other pets.
He is a colorpoint Ragdoll like his grandmother, Willow, so he has no white markings! Being a Lilac Lynx Colorpoint: His legs, tail, ears, and face mask will be a light, creamy dove-grey color as he matures, and his body will remain mostly white-cream. Being Lynx, he will have white ‘tabby striping’ outlining his eyes, ears, and making his nose a lighter shade of lilac. He has vivid, dark blue eyes that are captivating. I expect he will maintain this deep eye color as he matures, just like both of his parents.

Baby Clove - RESERVED FOR LINDSEY
Adoption Fee: -- 3,000 + 6% sales tax
Date of Birth: August 2025
Sex: Male
Color: Lilac Point Lynx Bicolor
---
(Pictured here at 8 weeks)
Purrsonality & Qualities:
Extremely sweet, laid back, soft personality, gentle, emotionally intelligent / sensitive, goes limp being held
Clove is an extremely sweet, gentle personality. While he can get in there and play with his siblings, he doesn’t like to play too rough. He is very emotionally intelligent, he looks into my eyes and he enjoys being ‘comforted’ after things like running the vacuum, or being given his first vaccinations. He loves to be held and babied! I could see him doing well with kids or other pets, so long as they are gentle and affectionate with him. He is very outgoing, but very ‘soft’ in his personality. He just is a lil’ baby who loves to be loved. He is a lilac lynx bicolor, so he will have light dove-grey points as he matures, with a white inverted ‘V’ on his face that covers his nose and chin, a white belly, and white legs and pink toes. His lilac points are exceptionally light, and his eye color is a vivid blue which I expect he will maintain as he grows, just like his parents. He will be about as close to a pure-white Ragdoll as you can technically get!

Baby Cinnamon - RESERVED FOR AMY
Adoption Fee: -- 3,500 + 6% sales tax
Date of Birth: August 2025
Sex: Female
Color: Lilac Point Lynx Mitted
---
(Pictured here at 8 weeks)
Purrsonality & Qualities:
Outgoing, sweet, laid back, floppy, goes limp being held, loves to be held, very relaxed.
I have gone back and forth about miss Cinnamon, but I am deciding to list her as available, as this is only her mother’s second litter, and her father’s first, and I’m really not ready to retire either of them. Cinnamon is an exceptional little Ragdoll, and could be considered as show-quality if you are interested in showing! She is lilac lynx mitted, so she will have light dove-grey points, white ‘mittens’ on her paws, and a white chin and belly. She will have ‘lynx’ striping, giving her stunning light and dark tabby markings on her points. Cinnamon also has intensely deep blue eyes, just like her parents, and I expect them to remain a deep sapphire blue as she ages.
She is incredibly sweet and floppy! She goes completely limp when being picked up and held, and loves to be snuggled. She is very confident for a girl, and loves to play with her siblings. I could see her doing well with a family and kids, or with other pets. I could also see her loving being an only child, she is very affectionate and loves people!

Baby Nutmeg - RESERVED FOR DAN
Adoption Fee: -- 3,000 + 6% sales tax
Date of Birth: August 2025
Sex: Male
Color: Lilac Point Lynx Mitted
---
(Pictured here at 8 weeks)
Purrsonality & Qualities:
Gentle, calm, soft, insightful, affectionate, snuggly, sensitive, goes limp being held, loves being held like a baby
Nutmeg is such a sweetheart! He is very gentle and laid back. He LOVES to come cuddle in bed with us! He is very emotionally intelligent and loves to be held like a baby, where he will look into my eyes and purr and purr. He can be a bit on the sensitive side, he doesn’t like his siblings playing too rough with them, but he adores playing with ‘chase’ wands and play that is on the gentler side! I think he could do well with kids as he loves people, or with other pets, so long as they are calm and gentle with him. He is extremely laid back and goes limp when you pick him up and hold him. He is a lilac lynx mitted - so he will have light dove-grey points, white ‘mittens’ on his paws, and a white chin and belly. He will have light and dark ‘tabby’ markings from the lynx overtop his lilac markings, outlining his ears and eyes with light color that is really stunning.

Baby Sage - PENDING RESERVATION
Adoption Fee: -- 3,000 + 6% sales tax
Date of Birth: August 2025
Sex: Male
Color: Lilac Point Lynx Bicolor
---
(Pictured here at 8 weeks)
Purrsonality & Qualities:
Hilarious, outgoing, ‘sunshine’ personality, loves to play, loves to snuggle, affectionate, demands attention, goes limp being held, loves to be held like a baby.
Sage is warm like sunshine! He is so bright, outgoing, hilarious, and sweet. But he isn’t too hyperactive, this boy LOVES to cuddle as well! He is so awesome with his siblings and even with the mommas, he loves everyone and he adores people! He loves going out and meeting people, and he loves being out in the world. He had the best time going to the first vet visit recently, where he demanded to be held by all the vet techs! He is the kind of kitten who will get in your face and demand affection. I can’t sit and be on my phone or computer without him wanting to get in my face and ask for attention. He is very much a velcro cat, with a big need to play, who also loves being held like a baby and napping in my arms. I could see him doing well with any kind of family - kids, snow-birding, having other pets, enjoying travel, etc. He loves adventure of any kind and is super adaptable.
He is a lilac lynx bicolor, so he will have light dove-grey points, with a white inverted ‘V’ on his face that gives him a white mask, pink nose, and a white belly and legs. He will be about as white as you can get in a Ragdoll! He has the most electric-deep-blue eyes of the bunch, which I think he will keep as he ages just like his parents. He really is also the largest of the litter, he was half a pound bigger than all his siblings at their 8 week vet appointment! He is going to be a stunning, bright, large boy as he grows.

Color: Blue Point Mitted
---
(Pictured here at 7 weeks)
Purrsonality & Qualities:
So floppy, goes limp being held, very playful, loves playing with siblings, very affectionate, very relaxed and laid back.
Cashmere is a total darling. He is playful, but also one of the best Ragdoll floppers of the season! He goes 100% limp when being picked up, and he will lay in my arms like a baby for ages. He is very confident and outgoing, and I could see him doing very well with children, or with other pets! He plays very nicely and confidently with his siblings and he’s done very well with outside socialization, he charmed the vet techs at his first vaccination appointment! I think he will be a cuddly, outgoing, charming boy as he grows. He is a blue point mitted, with a star on his face. So he will have dark grey points as he ages, with a light grey body, white mittens on his paws, a white chin, and a white belly, as well as a ‘star’ on his forehead (and a small white marking on his nose/upper lip). He has stunning, deep blue eyes that I expect will remain a very vivid blue just like his mom as he grows!

Baby Merino - RESERVED FOR HOLLY
Adoption Fee: -- 2,500 + 6% sales tax

Sex: Male
Color: Blue Point Mitted
---
(Pictured here at 7 weeks)
Purrsonality & Qualities:
Outgoing, bright, very social, hilarious, loves to play with other siblings and people, very sweet, loves attention.
Merino is so hilarious! I don’t know how else to describe it, I just love this boy. He will spring out from around corners to play with me, roll and tussle when I go to play with him, and he just loves using his paws to wave at me for attention. He is a ham! He loves being held and he loves being ‘scritched’ on his little back. He purrs when being loved on, and is extremely affectionate. He is also very confident, and I could see him doing well in any family situation, with other pets or with children. He is affectionate and playful, and quite floppy when you go to hold him. He is a blue point mitted with a large white ‘blaze’, so he will have dark-grey points as he ages, with a light grey body, with white mittens on his paws, and then a white stripe up his face, which goes down his chin and onto his white belly. He has stunning blue eyes like his mother Willow, which I expect to remain a deep electric blue as he ages!

Baby Cardigan - Being Evaluated
Adoption Fee: -- 3,000 + 6% sales tax
Date of Birth: August 2025
Sex: Female
Color: Seal Point MItted
---
(Pictured here at 7 weeks old)
Purrsonality & Qualities:
The floppiest, so sweet, so relaxed, emotionally intelligent, loves to be held, very laid back.
Cardigan is the floppiest kitten of the season. She just is amazing! She goes totally limp when being picked up and held, and she loves to be loved. She is very affectionate and laid back. I can see her becoming a future couch-potato in the very best way lol! She is just so laid back and prefers to snuggle with me rather than play rough with her siblings. I am evaluating her to potentially keep her here, it is a very hard decision on which of Willow’s two girls I might keep! I think she could do well in a family with kids, or with other pets, so long as they know to be gentle with her. She is so affectionate, but doesn’t like to be rough housed. She is a seal point mitted, so she will have dark brown points, a cream colored body, and white mittens on her paws, along with a white chin and belly. She could potentially be a show quality girl if a home was interested in competing with her!

Baby Velvet - Being Evaluated
Adoption Fee: -- 3,000 + 6% sales tax
Date of Birth: August 2025
Sex: Female
Color: Seal Point MItted
---
(Pictured here at 7 weeks)
Purrsonality & Qualities:
Very outgoing, seeks affection, very funny, likes to play with us, loves being held, loves to cuddle.
Velvet is such a confident, loving, affectionate girl. I am evaluating her for a bit longer along with her sister Cardigan, trying to decide between keeping one of them. Velvet goes lip when you hold her, she seeks you out for attention and snuggles, and she loves being held like a baby. She adores snuggling in bed with us at night, and is a total velcro kitten. She really is a wonderful girl and is an exceptional example of the kind of personality and limp/floppiness we hope for in the Ragdoll! She is a seal point mitted, so she will have dark brown points, with a light cream body as she grows, white mittens on her paws, and a white chin and belly. She also has a small white marking on her upper lip! She has brilliant sapphire eyes - just like her momma!
