What is an English Muffin?
English Muffins are a new, wonderful breed we are developing here at Nevada Rain Cats along with My Devine Feline, in Utah, and a growing group of people across the US. English Muffins (EMs) are adorable their whole lives, sweet and loving, and great with kids. They are high percentage British Short- or Longhair and share their round, happy faces, and diverse array of colors and coat patterns. English Muffins can be long-haired or short-haired. They have amazingly soft fur too. Their sweet little faces appear to be smiling and have THE most beautiful eyes. Some even have odd and/or dominant blue eyes. This means they don’t have to be colorpoint to have blue eyes, they can be black, like our upcoming English Muffin King, Edmond. To top off all of this perfection and cuteness, standard English Muffins also have short legs.
Scooter, Gidget, Peeka, Boo, and Poppy are 50% British Short or Longhair. Scooter is a mitted, seal colorpoint. Gidget is a black smoke tabby with emerald green eyes, Peeka is a long haired, black golden tabby also with green eyes, and Boo is a chocolate colorpoint with blue eyes. Poppy was raised right here at Nevada Rain and she is silver shaded and marbled, with green eyes. Breccia and Livvy are 25% British Shorthair. Breccia is black and brown marbled with aquamarine eyes (very rare) and Livvy is mitted blue and cream tortie. Poker Face is just now making her debut on this page and she is also 50% British Shorthair and is our first black and red tortie, mitted English Muffin.
We have 75% British Short- and Longhair English Muffins now! We've got Dove (solid black) and Feather (silver shaded) growing up now and holy moly are they impressive. We'll try to post updated pictures of them as they grow up so you can watch them grow with us.
All of our English Muffins or both of their parent cats, have been genetically tested through Optimal Selection and all are clear/clear for all 50 genetic disorders. Breccia, Dove, Poppy, and all of our other homegrown beauties are clear by parentage of all disorders tested for by Optimal Selection.
In 2021, we have added Poppy, Dove, Feather, Poker Face, and now Zaini to our English Muffin future queens and Finnegan and Edmond to our kings.

Upcoming English Muffin Queen: Zaini
Zaini is our perfect little short and sweet chocolate English Muffin. Zaini is a standard munchkin who is a mitted chocolate who carries chocolate, cinnamon, dilute, and colorpoint. We have been waiting for Zaini and she is literally EXACTLY what I would order if I were looking for the perfect little English Muffin. She is staying right here at Nevada Rain and will have a wonderful impact on the future of Nevada Rain. Zaini and her sister, Dove, have the potential to give us the most diverse array of colors of any cats we own. Zaini's dna results can be accessed by clicking on the button below.
Upcoming English Muffin Queen: Poker Face
Poker Face is the daughter of Kuvo, a purebred cinnamon British Shorthair and Mira, a wonderful munchkin manx queen owned by Desert Sage Cats. Poker Face is a beautiful black and red tuxedo tortie, standard munchkin that is half British Shorthair. She's a truly special addition to our English Muffin Queens. Poker Face's DNA results from Optimal Selection are in and you can see them below! She carries cinnamon, gloving, and long hair. She and Edmond can have black, cinnamon, and black or cinnamon tortie standard or non-standard munchkin kittens with dominant blue, odd (with dominant blue), gold, or green eyes. She and Finnegan or Watson would also have a great variety of colors.

Upcoming English Muffin Queen: Dove
Dove has the sweetest little face and the most adorable eyes. She is the whole reason why we raise English Muffins. She is solid black, short legged, carries colorpoint, long hair, cinnamon, and spice and everything nice. She also has a 67% chance of carrying dilute. She is cleared by parentage for all 50 disorders tested upon by Optimal Selection (see Kuvo and Scooter's results above). Dove is staying here at Nevada Rain. We'd love to watch her grow. Dove is blood group A which is just what we were hoping for!! Someday we'd love to have kittens out of Dove and Edmond for Dominant Blue Eyed (DBE) or odd-eyed (also DBE) black and cinnamon kittens and she'd also have adorable kittens out of Hughie or Finnegan as well.
Iroh's daughters, Feather, Poppy and Gidget: Iroh is an amazing example of the British Shorthair. He is so beautiful and so sweet and playful. I have never seen a cat that has eyes as beautiful as this guy's eyes. I'm not exaggerating either. We love Iroh's daughters and all of his kittens are outgoing, sweet and beautiful.
Iroh, below:
Upcoming English Muffin Queen: Feather
I seriously cannot get over Feather's cute little face. She is the most adorable thing EVER. She is a standard English Muffin and is silver shaded. She carries a lot of the genes we are looking to have more of here at Nevada Rain, so we'll be keeping her here. I love her!! Feather carries cinnamon, colorpoint, dilute, the munchkin gene, and is 75% British Longhair. See Iroh's genetic testing results on my Purebred British Shorthair page and Boo's genetic testing results below on this, English Muffin Queens page, to see that Feather cannot carry any of the disorders tested upon by Optimal Selection and is just as perfect as she looks. :)

English Muffin Queen
Gidget: Black Smoke with GREEN eyes
Gidget was born and raised right here at Nevada Rain. Her father is a handsome silver shaded purebred British Shorthair from champion European lines, Iroh, that now lives in Arizona and her mother is my most cherished queen, Mira. Gidget had her first litter in 2020 and it was a wonderful litter of six beautiful, healthy shorties with great personalities. Five are all happily living in their new homes and Breccia, one of her daughters, is staying here at Nevada Rain. She can be found near the bottom of this page.

Peeka: Black Golden Spotted Tabby (ny 24) English Muffin
Peeka is THE MOST adorable cat I've ever been around. Everything about her oozes cuteness!! When I first saw her, I knew I had to have her. I thought that she'd become an adult and much of her cuteness would go away, but I was wrong. She's just as darling now as she ever was. Peeka peeks out through her beautiful green eyes and whatever might be bothering you goes away. She's funny and happy and just loves being her. Please see Peeka's genetic testing results below. Peeka should have a diverse array of colors, hair lengths, and patterns. She was clear for all 50 disorders tested for as well. We expect a litter out of Peeka and Iroh in late March of 2021. This English Muffin litter will be 75% British Shorthair.

Boo: Chocolate Colorpoint English Muffin
Boo is the perfect kitty. She is so beautiful and ever so perfect in her personality too. Boo is a sweet, chatty, playful queen that is such a pleasure to be around. She loves to be held and caressed just under her ears but never makes demands. She's also a lot of fun, silly and animated. Her coat is extremely soft and beautiful and her short little legs give her that perfect look that everyone is asking about. I know for sure that Boo will have an impact at Nevada Rain. She's already stolen our hearts and I'm sure her kittens will capture others' hearts in the near future. Boo's genetic results are below. Thus far, she is our only chocolate cat and she also carries cinnamon as does her sister Peeka. Boo is the mother of Feather, one of our English Muffin queens above. She is a great mother and has proven to be an excellent addition to our English Muffin squad. Updated 10/30/21.

Standard Munchkin, English Muffin Queen: Livvy
Livvy is our mitted blue and cream tortie, standard munchkin queen that carries colorpoint, chocolate, and is dilute. Her dna results are below and show that she does not carry a single copy of any of the tested upon disorders at Optimal Selection. She is beautiful and an absolute delight to be around. She is playful, bright, and so comical. We just adore her!! She is owned by my youngest daughter, and Livvy is the daughter of Scooter, and Gurt, our retired cream manx. Livvy currently has an English Muffin litter sired by Kuvo, born in July of 2021. Livvy is 25% British blood, making her one of our English Muffin queens. Her and Kuvo's kittens are 62.5% British Shorthair and are available now (10/13/21)

Scooter: She’s just beautiful and sweet and has produced some absolutely perfect kittens, like Livvy, Dove and Zaini above. Scooter is a mitted seal traditional colorpoint. Scooter is colorpoint and carries dilute and chocolate. Let me know if you'd like to reserve a kitten in Scooter's next litter. They're always reserved quickly. Scooter's dad is a Scottish Fold, so Scooter is 50% British blood, and is one of our English Muffins.
