Our Story

Our KidsMy love for the breed developed after I was introduced to one of these cats by my technician, PJ Agents LVT, and with her help we formed the building blocks for the cattery, Endeavor. She still continues as our handler and lives with several of our "four-footed kids."  We have also brought  Samantha Johnsonbaugh, LVT on board who handles a lot of our client communication and shipping for the cattery and is an integral part of our program.  This breed's consistent loving personality coupled with their unique look and hypoallergenic properties endeared them to me forever. As a veterinarian, I am also sensitive to their unique health demands, continue to research their health issues, run an active outcross program to improve gene diversity, and provide for a vigorous socialization regimen.

I believe the goal to be improvement of the breed by paying attention to structure, movement, and temperament. In addition, working within a community of comradery to continue to identify, test, and isolate the health problems which afflict our breed.

And above all, to make sure to the best of our ability EVERY kitten or adult placed from our home to yours will be the most correct match to allow for a lifetime of companionship.

Here at Endeavor Sphynx, we strive to provide an inclusive and updated medical program.

All adults are screened for the following :

  • Feline Leukemia and Feline Immunodeficiency Virus
  • Bartonella-- this is an IMPORTANT bacteria which can be transmitted to people and result in "Cat Scratch Fever"
  • Giardia testing on the stool
  • Yearly fecals and deworming since even fecals with no parasites seen can still be a source of parasites
  • Yearly vaccinations with PureVax FVRCP and PureVax Rabies vaccinations including full examinations of eyes, hearts, abdomens, etc.
  • We have begun screening for Tritrichomonas foetus
  • Yearly Abdominal ultrasound screening
  • Yearly Heart scans with followup by boarded cardiologist where appropriate
  • Yearly ear mite check

In addition, any kittens or adults lost, receive a full necropsy to determine cause of death.
