| ABOUT US |
| Welcome to our site. We own and operate ResQMe Farms Cattery located in Amite, Louisiana. First, WE DON'T FARM CATS! One of our interests is participating in rescue operations for animals. So when we decided to open a Cattery and hoped to use this venue to help with rescue operations, we thought the name was appropriate. Our goal is to provide lovely designer kittens for those people looking for something unique, but with a predictable manner that comes from years of specific breeding. We love our beautiful babies and believe that the world is a better place with them in it. However, not everyone is looking for a pedigreed kitten but still seeks the love of a companion pet. We realize that these designer kittens do not fit everyone's taste or budget. And we highly recommend that if a pedigreed kitten is not for you, that you please visit your local animal shelter where you may find a loving companion just for you. Also, watch our Available Adults page for rescue animals available for adoption. ResQMe Farms Cattery was inspired by a search for a kitten for a family pet. As we came across the Munchkin and Napoleon breeds, we became interested in the unique history and fascinated with these wonderful tiny cats with huge personalities. Our search started out with a mind set of purchasing one pet kitten and resulted in the opening of ResQMe Farms Cattery. It wasn't only a love at first sight relationship we developed with these animals, it was a true interest in expanding the breeds to ensure that they are not lost in history again. Our Breed History Page gives you the fascinating details about the breeds and makes one excited to join the ranks of people dedicated to seeing them flourish. As our experience grows, our goals for future generations evolve. We are constantly looking for rare colors and perfect coats for our program. Our main breeding objective at this time is to expand our Napoleon program and breed to the Napoleon Standard. As all experienced breeders know, it takes years to develop that special something that sets your cats apart from others. While all of the kittens we breed will be lovely and special, we hope to eventually see most of our kittens in rare colors, with wonderful plush coats. We are currently working toward that perfect kitten that we would be proud to present in Show Halls. To do that we are working with other Napoleon breeders to Advance the breed to make Showing Napoleons a reality. So please spend some time and check out our site and visit us again over the next months to see how our program is evolving. You're sure to enjoy learning more about our designer kittens. If you have any questions, please go to our Contact Us Page. We look forward to hearing from you and will be happy to answer any questions you might have. Peg and Rob Chenault ResQMe Farms Cattery |
| Rob and I have six human children and the number of feline children is ever changing. Our wonderful Boxer, Holly, who we rescued many years ago, was laid to rest in March 2009. We haven't been able to even consider another dog just yet. All but one of our children is grown and gone (some not far and some very far). We have seven grandchildren at last count and they all live far away (two in England, two in California, and three in Tennessee). We miss them terribly. We are in the never ending process of renovating my great grandparents home and also own the home next door where I grew up as a child and where one or more of our children are always living. We have numerous outbuildings on the property, two of which are dedicated to the housing of our kitties. Those are also in a never ending state of remodel as new ideas occur to us. Our kitties live very comfortably in their own air-conditioned homes and are constantly rotated through our homes. They are not caged except for medical, grooming, or travel reasons. Rob and I are retired, but he works now and again to keep busy and to help pay for this very expensive hobby of mine. Rob loves to fish and work in the yard. He also loves interacting with other trades people on their websites. I love babies (all kinds) and enjoy watching their antics. I love to raise my kitties. I also love to research family history and can be found in cemeteries snapping photos of headstones quite often. I am also a member of a local chapter historical group. We are very family oriented and love huge family get togethers. We are members of the FUMC and enjoy that family also. We love date nights, but rarely get one. And we are each others best friends. We have a symbiotic relationship that works well for us. I get us into trouble and Rob bails us out of it! We lie about our age and weight as a general rule. We are convinced that elves visit in the night to pump fat into my bottom and pluck hairs out of Rob's top! Any other explanation is out of the question! And that's our story and we're sticking to it! Welcome to our site and please feel free to call or email anytime. |
