We started looking for a Maine Coon about a year ago. Our experience with some of the other U.S. breeders was challenging – either they weren’t responsive/forthcoming, or they didn’t place a lot of priority in the health and standards of their cattery. I was pretty firm that I wanted to find a small cattery that strove for breed integrity – and completed all available health testing in their program. After a couple emails and phone calls with Dan, it was such a relief to find a breeder that raised the bar, with a wealth of information shared so readily with us. We got on the wait list for a kitten and stayed in touch… and once the litter was born it was instant smiles to get kitten picture updates as they grew. Transporting our little one here was a smooth process – she had a longer flight but did well. She’s everything a Maine Coon should be! Loving, affectionate, playful, and great with all of the other animals in the house (we have 4 dogs and 2 other cats). We love her confidence – she is curious and greets people immediately. Thanks Dan, we love our little one.

Doing Business with Noble Manes Cattery has been an extremely positive experience. The owner and breeder, Dan Fradkin, was such a pleasure to work with. We adopted a male, blue smoke Maine Coon cat named Gryff. We have been so thrilled to welcome this little guy into our home. He is the most fun-loving, cuddly, spirited, and beautiful boy. He acclimated to our home and bonded to us so quickly. I can thank Dan for that because he is a very loving and caring breeder who shows each cat and kitten an abundance of love and affection, making all of his kittens wonderful pets. All of the cats at Noble Manes Cattery are approachable and affectionate – the ones he breeds, the kittens, his pets. None of them were afraid. None of them hid. They all welcomed human attention. All of his kittens are microchipped, spayed/neutered and up to date on shots before you pick them up. All kittens come with papers explaining bloodlines, etc. He also sends you home with a goody bag of food samples and toys as well as a darling comfort blanket. I recommend Noble Manes Cattery 100%. Thank you Dan for a such a wonderful experience. I couldn’t be happier! I look forward to doing business with you again.

We are very pleased with our inclusion of Idgie to our family! I would highly recommend anyone interested in healthy, happy, social Maine Coon cats to work with D.S. Fradkin. When you work with him you will find he is very loving and kind to his cats and his Cattery is exceptional. He was always open to questions and was honest and informative in all of dealings with him. Idgie is beautiful, loving and we are so pleased to have her in our home.

Dan is a wonderful person to work with!! All of his cats are beautiful and very spoiled! We looked all over for a Maine Coon breeder and I am so grateful we found him! He is very well organized and communicative. Our kitten is so soft and has beautiful coloring. Her demeanor is so sweet, loving, and very playful. She likes to carry her ball around in her mouth – very dog-like which is what attracted my husband to the breed. Dan sets you up with all the papers and tests in a folder my vet was beyond impressed with. He also provided toys, food, and a snuggle blanket to make the transition easier for the kitten leaving her family. To this day she sleeps on it, as well as the other cats we had before.

It was a wonderful experience and I would not hesitate to adopt another one of his babies when and if the opportunity comes around.
