Munchkin Kittens for Sale — Short-Legged Cats With Full-Size Personalities
Kitty Palace Cattery offers TICA-registered Munchkin kittens for sale, raised at home in New Jersey and delivered throughout the northeastern USA. The short legs come from a natural genetic trait, and our kittens run, climb and play with all the energy of any other breed.
What to Expect From a Short-Legged Cat
In fact, a Munchkin moves like any other kitten, just closer to the ground. Every day, our kittens race through the house, wrestle with their littermates, and climb the cat tree by pushing off with their strong back legs. However, tall counters usually take two hops instead of one, which is the only real limitation you will notice. Otherwise, they share the same beautiful coats, the same expressive faces, and the same friendly character as other cats. Ultimately, the choice comes down to what you prefer to look at, because both short-legged and standard-legged kittens are equally lovable.
Straight and Fold, in a Wide Range of Colors
We breed both Munchkin Straight and Munchkin Fold. The Straights have upright ears, while the Folds carry the softly folded ears that give the face its owl-like look.
Our colors run from silver and golden chinchilla to lilac, chocolate, blue and marble. As a result, buyers usually find something in our litters that they have not seen at other catteries.
Living With a Munchkin
Munchkins are curious to the point of comedy. They investigate every bag that comes through the door, supervise whatever you are doing, and carry small objects around the house for reasons of their own.
That confidence also makes them sociable. They approach visitors rather than hiding from them, and they settle in quickly with children, dogs and other cats. However, a Munchkin does expect company. This is not a breed that thrives alone in an empty house all week.
Setting Up Your Home
Short legs change a few practical details. First, keep bowls, beds and litter boxes at floor level with low sides. Then add a step, ramp or low perch to anywhere you want your cat to reach, such as a windowsill or sofa back.
Beyond that, care is ordinary. Brush the coat weekly, keep claws trimmed, and feed a normal balanced diet.
Our Munchkin Kittens
Each kitten leaves us vaccinated, dewormed, litter box and scratcher trained. In addition, we handle every kitten daily from its first week, so they arrive used to people.
We do delivery. Fee $ by distance. We serve NY, NJ, PA, CT, MD and MA.
You can read the official breed standard on the TICA Munchkin page and verify our registration in the TICA breeder directory.
