About Us

Empire Farm Cattery started because we fell in love with the Maine Coon breed and have a deep passion and love for animals. Over time, that passion grew into a small, focused breeding program built around health, temperament, and responsible care.

All of our breeding cats were carefully selected from Europe and raised by us from kittens. Because we raise them ourselves, we know their personalities, strengths, and needs inside and out, and that helps us make thoughtful decisions in our program.

We are located in Illinois and raise both Maine Coons and Bengals. Our kittens are raised with daily handling, routine, and structure so they grow up confident, social, and well-adjusted in their new homes.

We care deeply about where our kittens go and stay involved throughout the process, from the first inquiry to the day they go home and beyond.
