◆European Maine Coon Kittens in St. Louis, Missouri
Raised with Care, Health, and Heart
Dashing Coons is a small, home-based cattery in Ballwin, Missouri — in the St. Louis metro. Every kitten is born and raised inside our home, handled daily from birth, and socialized with people and other animals before going home.
We specialize in black smoke, blue smoke, and polydactyl Maine Coons. TICA registration and a written health guarantee are standard on every placement. Parents are completing health testing; I share each cat's current status openly and results as they're finalized.
Why Dashing Coons
◆What Sets This Program Apart
Smoke and polydactyl focus
Our program focuses on black smoke, blue smoke, and polydactyl Maine Coons, raised in our home in Ballwin, Missouri.
Parent health testing in progress
Parents are completing health testing; I share each cat's current status openly and results as they're finalized.
Personal nationwide delivery — never cargo
I personally hand-deliver nationwide at no charge. Your kitten travels with me in-cabin or by car — never cargo.
Written 4-year health guarantee
Every kitten goes home with a written health contract covering genetic conditions for four years — longer than most breeders offer.
You always talk to Samuel
There is no staff, no assistant, no form response. Every text and email is answered by Samuel personally — before, during, and after placement.
Health Testing
◆Health Testing in Progress. Vet Cleared. Guaranteed.
Parents are completing health testing; I share each cat's current status openly and results as they're finalized. Kittens are vet-cleared before pickup and covered by a written 4-year health guarantee.
European Smoke Program
◆Black Smoke & Blue Smoke Maine Coons
Black smoke and blue smoke are among the most visually striking Maine Coon patterns — a pale silver undercoat beneath a dark topcoat that shifts with movement and light.
Jolene and Cyrus are both large-boned, interactive cats with the long muzzle and wild look of the European standard.

◆ Small Program ◆
Raised in My Home — Not a Facility
Every kitten is born and raised inside our home, never a facility.
A small program means every litter gets full attention. I know each kitten individually — their personality, their quirks, how they interact with people and other animals.
This is not a volume operation. It is a deliberate choice to keep quality over quantity.
What a buyer says about our program
"No kitty mill here! Our baby Louie has been amazing — super social, sweet, gets along great with our other older cat. Dashingcoons has been nothing but helpful, fair and informative. 10/10, I can't wait to get another!"
— Kaylin G. · Facebook recommendation · Feb 2025
◆ See Before You Commit ◆
Book a Live Video Call
Before any deposit, I do a live video call — it is the first step, not an optional extra. You see the kitten in real time, watch them move and interact, and meet the parents if available. It is the best way to feel completely confident before any money moves.
Text first — we ask for an initial text before scheduling calls due to high scam volume in the kitten market.
◆ About Me ◆
Meet Samuel
I am Samuel Haws, and I run Dashing Coons out of my home in Ballwin, Missouri. There is no staff, no facility — just me, my cats, and the kittens I raise in my living space.
I got into European smoke Maine Coons because I wanted a cat with real presence — the silver undercoat, the size, the structure you do not see in most American-bred lines. I have built this program around health testing, honest pairings, and raising kittens the way I would want my own cat raised.
I answer every message personally. If you text or email me, you are talking to me — not an assistant, not a form response. And that does not stop after go-home day.
What a buyer says about temperament and after-sale care
"Zeus is the sweetest, most gentle cat out there! So helpful, sweet, and caring for their kittens and their clients. I wouldn't buy from anyone else for a Maine Coon. They even got Zeus a gift for his 1st birthday."
— Mary P. · Facebook recommendation · Dec 2024
