GCCF Registered Hobby Snowshoe Cat Breeder in the UK since 2010

Welcome to Sapphirestar Cats

My name is Kate and I am a hobby breeder of super friendly GCCF Registered pedigree Snowshoe cats in the UK. 
Our kittens are raised underfoot in our family home. My cats and kittens are happy, healthy, confident and much loved.  All our kittens are handled daily from birth. They are sociable, active, playful and fun and make very rewarding companion cats. 
We have pure bred Snowshoes from respected UK and Worldwide lines and those descended from Siamese and British Shorthair cats, who have brought new bloodlines to the Snowshoe breed.
I am very proud of my homebred Snowshoe stud boys – stunning 5th generation Grand Champion Snowshoe Vegas, 6th generation Sapphirestar Yoda, a well proven Seal point bi-colour. Baby Sapphirestar Zero-to-Hero is a gorgeous seal bicolour boy kitten born March 2024 and the Best in Show Snowshoe kitten 2024. Not forgetting our stunning British Shorthair stud Pete!
