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.
Gidget, Boo, and Poppy are 50% British Short or Longhair. Gidget is a black smoke tabby with emerald 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.
We have 75% British Short- and Longhair English Muffins now too! We've got Zaini (chocolate mitted), Dove (solid black) and Feather (silver shaded) growing up now and holy moly are they impressive. Poker Face is also 75% British Shorthair and is our first black and red tortie, mitted English Muffin that carries cinnamon and long hair.
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 added Poppy, Dove, Feather, Poker Face, and now Zaini to our English Muffin future queens and Finnegan and Edmond to our kings. In 2022, we've added Clementine and Paxton, who are two of the most genetically diverse cats I own. This means that their future kittens can be an array of colors and coats types, as well as having both dwarf and non-dwarf (ND) characteristics. I counted over 70 possibilities for colors and coat length for Paxton. Both Clementine and Paxton are from the same litter. Their parents are Watson, purebred British Shorthair, and Peeka, 50% British Longhair, standard munchkin/English Muffin. They are 75% British Shorthair.
Please note that all of our cats are either genetically tested for all genetic disorders or their parents are. We are proud of this and pride ourselves on only raising kittens from the healthiest of parent cats and NONE of our kittens will be affected by any of the tested upon disorders.
