Our Moms

At this point, most of our moms were born and raised here with us! We were there the minute they entered this world and we said, “Oh, you’re staying here forever…”
Our moms are truly the backbone of Keystone Cats. They’re the ones teaching their babies how to “be a cat” from the moment they’re born. Feeding them and keeping them clean isn’t their only job, though, they also provide the most important thing: love. There’s honestly nothing more incredible than watching a mama cat with her babies. They snuggle them close, quite literally giving them hugs and kisses! And when they’re older they play with them and teach them how to have fun. Our girls are so amazing and we make sure to treat them like the queens they are.
