🐾 The Story of Day&Night Cattery — The First Breeder Who Created the New Standard of Munchkins

🌙 A Dream That Started in 2009

The Day&Night Cattery was founded in 2009 — a year that marked the beginning of something truly special in the world of cat breeding.
At first, the cattery focused on classic and beloved breeds such as Scottish Fold and British Shorthair. These elegant, round-faced cats with calm personalities inspired the founder to explore feline beauty and genetics on a deeper level.

But soon, the passion for creating something unique led to new discoveries — the Canadian Sphynx and the rare Bambino, a hairless cat with charming short legs. It was during this journey that the founder first encountered the Munchkin, a short-legged breed known for its playful and loving temperament.

“At that moment, I realized that Munchkins had incredible potential — but they needed refinement. They were cute, but their features weren’t yet harmonious. I wanted to create cats that would be beautiful, balanced, and truly captivating.”

🧬 Creating a New Standard of Beauty

From that vision, a groundbreaking breeding program began.
Day&Night Cattery started to cross Munchkins with other breeds — Scottish Fold, British, Exotic, Persian, and Scottish Straight.
The goal was to keep the signature short legs while improving the proportions, facial type, coat texture, and eye expression.

The result?
✨ A new, breathtaking look: cats with big expressive eyes, plush short or semi-long coats, round faces, and gentle folds or straight ears — all on those irresistibly short little legs.

Each kitten became a perfect blend of charm, grace, and playfulness — a small miracle of genetics and love.

🌍 Recognition Around the World

The beauty of these cats didn’t go unnoticed.
Over the years, Day&Night kittens have found homes all around the world — from Europe to Asia and America. Breeders and cat lovers began to recognize the Day&Night line as the foundation of the modern Munchkin look — elegant, expressive, and emotionally captivating.

Many people today refer to this type as the “Day&Night Munchkin” — a true sign of quality and authenticity.

❤️ The Philosophy of Day&Night

Every kitten born in the Day&Night Cattery carries not just a pedigree, but also a piece of the breeder’s soul.
The philosophy is simple but powerful:

“We don’t just breed cats — we create joy, beauty, and love that lives in every family who chooses our kittens.”

🏆 Legacy and the Future

From the first Scottish kittens in 2009 to the creation of the new Munchkin standard, Day&Night Cattery has walked a long and passionate path.
