Columbus families searching for Maine Coon kittens are closer to us than they might think. Dashing Coons is a TICA-registered European Maine Coon cattery in Ballwin, Missouri (St. Louis metro) — Columbus is a comfortable drive, and we personally deliver every kitten. No cargo, no crates, no strangers. We drive to you.

A Comfortable Drive from the St. Louis area

Ballwin, Missouri to Columbus is a manageable drive, and we've made it for Ohio families. We typically coordinate a morning departure and an afternoon delivery — your kitten arrives at your door with us, and you get to meet the people who raised them. Columbus families consistently tell us the personal delivery experience is one of the things that sets us apart from breeders who ship kittens as cargo.

What Columbus Families Are Looking For

Ohio buyers tend to be practical and well-researched. They want a cat that's genuinely healthy, genuinely large, and genuinely what the breeder claims. Our European bloodlines from Russia and Ukraine produce cats with the dramatic structure the breed is known for — tall ear tufts, square muzzles, heavy bone — and we test every breeding cat through UC Davis. We've placed kittens with families throughout Ohio and the greater Columbus area.

Black Smoke, Blue Smoke, and Polydactyl

We specialize in black smoke and blue smoke Maine Coons — kittens born nearly solid black that reveal a stunning silver undercoat over the first year. We also breed polydactyl Maine Coons with the extra-toe trait that traces back to the breed's New England origins. These are rare in Ohio, and Columbus families who find us often say they searched for months.

In-Person Visits Welcome

Columbus families are always welcome to make the drive to our cattery in Ballwin, Missouri (St. Louis metro) or our Ballwin, Missouri location by appointment. You can meet our breeding cats, see where the kittens are raised, and get a feel for how we operate. We're an open cattery — we encourage visits from serious buyers.
