Our Story
About Our Cattery
Southern Grace OK is a small, home-based cattery in Sallisaw, Oklahoma — built on a love of exceptional cats and a commitment to placing them in exceptional homes.
The Story
How We Got Here
Southern Grace OK began the way most catteries do — with one cat that changed everything. What started as a deep appreciation for a particular breed grew into a genuine calling: to breed healthy, well-socialized cats with the kind of temperament that makes a house feel like a home. We are based in Sallisaw, Oklahoma, and our cats live with us, not apart from us.
We are a small operation by design. We do not produce large numbers of kittens, and we do not rush our programs. Every breeding decision is made with the long-term health and type of the breed in mind. We would rather wait for the right pairing than produce kittens for the sake of availability.
Our Values
What We Believe
Health First
We health-test our breeding cats and provide veterinary care for every kitten before they go home. A beautiful cat that is not healthy is not a well-bred cat.
Temperament Matters
Our kittens are raised underfoot — handled daily, socialized with household sounds and activity, and given every opportunity to grow into confident, affectionate companions.
Honest Placement
We ask questions before we place kittens because we care where they go. We are not the right cattery for everyone, and that is fine. The right match matters more than a quick sale.
Companion Only
All of our kittens go home as beloved companions — spayed or neutered, without exception. We are not a source for breeding stock.
Transparency
We share what we know — health results, temperament observations, what to expect from the breed. We would rather give you too much information than too little.
Lifelong Relationship
When you bring home a kitten from Southern Grace OK, we are available to you. We want to know how they are doing, and we are here if questions come up.
Breed Programs
Our Programs
Southern Grace OK currently breeds British Shorthairs and Devon Rex. Our Maine Coon program is being carefully established. Each breed reflects a genuine love for the cat — not a business decision, but a commitment.
British Shorthairs
British Shorthairs — classic type, plush coats, and the steady, gentle temperament the breed is known for.
Devon Rex
Devon Rex — elfin faces, wavy coats, and a bold, people-loving personality unlike any other breed.
Maine Coons
Maine Coons — being established with the same care and intention that guides our other programs.
