What founding on TrueKitten gets you

Screened, serious buyers

Every buyer must pass screening — housing, cat experience, other pets, and kids — before they can make you a binding offer, so every offer on your kittens comes from a screened, serious home.

Buyer demand is being built, not oversold — you'd be among the first catteries, and you'd help shape it.

Your reputation, protected

TrueKitten stops anyone stealing your cattery name and photos, gives your real health-testing independent credit — documents authenticated and matched to the cat by microchip — and leaves you in full control: your contract, your return terms, your choice.

Standard, plain-English sale contract included — stop copy-pasting contracts from other catteries and hoping they hold up.

How we verify

Bring your own buyer, from day one

Sell to a buyer you bring with your referral link and pay 0% success fee on that sale, always — with payment held safely and an in-person handoff. Value your next litter now, whatever the marketplace looks like.

Payments held safely

Your buyer's deposit and balance are held safely in escrow by our payments provider until you hand over the kitten in person — then released to you automatically. No deposit fights, no no-shows.

One place to list, sell, and get paid

Post your litter with the price right on it — no pulled listing, no “DM me for price,” no group admin deciding whether your cattery gets seen. Screening, the contract, and the money run through one flow, so one link does what a Facebook post, a DM thread, and a Zelle request used to.

Nothing upfront

Free to start, no listing fees. You pay our 10% success fee only when your kitten sells.

Founding-cattery bonuses

Founding status + badgeA Founding Cattery badge that marks you as one of the first — early and discerning.
Featured placementFeatured, priority placement for 6–12 months, growing with the marketplace.
50% off the success fee — locked per listingAs a thank-you: every listing you create during your 6-month founding window locks in a 5% success fee instead of 10% — and the lock stays with that listing until the kitten sells, guaranteed, even if the sale closes months after your window ends. On a $3,000 kitten, that's $150 instead of $300.
Your 6-month founding window starts once your seat is claimed and your cattery is verified. Every listing you create inside it keeps the locked 5% rate until that kitten sells; listings created after it are at our standard 10%.
