Short-changed in the leg department doesn’t mean short on intelligence or personality. Our Munchkin kittens for sale are friendly and people-oriented, Munchkin cat kittens for sale make devoted companions, and they get along well with other cats, dogs, and people. They love to wrestle and play with their long-legged feline friends, happily unaware that there’s anything different about them. Nor do their feline companions treat them as members of the vertically challenged. It’s only humans who look at them askance.
Short-legged cats have been documented as early as the 1930s in England. According to records, these short-legged cats survived for four generations before World War II took its toll on the cat population of Europe. One such cat was also reported in the Soviet Union in the 1950s and dubbed the “Stalingrad Kangaroo Cat” for its tendency to sit up on its haunches. But the breed as we know it today began in Louisiana, USA.
In 1983 music teacher Sandra Hochenedel of Rayville, Louisiana discovered two cats hiding under a pickup truck where they had been cornered by a dog. Hochenedel rescued the cats and took them home, later noticing three things—both were female, both were pregnant, and both had short, stubby legs on normal-sized bodies. She kept Blackberry, the black-haired kitty, and gave away Blueberry, the gray-haired cat. What happened to Blueberry is unknown; all of today’s registered Munchkin Kittens For Sale can be traced back to Blackberry and one of her sons.

Because Munchkin Kittens For Sale may be bred to a wide variety of domestic cats, an individual cat’s personality will depend on their inheritance. All in all, Munchkins have been described as loving, sociable, and playful by their devoted fans.
The Munchkin requires a little grooming assistance since their shorter legs prevent them from reaching certain areas of their coat with their tongue. Short-haired cats should be brushed weekly and long-haired cats should be brushed a couple of times per week. Regular brushing helps prevent hairballs and matting.
You should also trim your cat’s nails, and help your cat maintain oral hygiene by brushing their teeth a couple of times per week, in addition to getting regular cleanings at the veterinarian.
