Scheherazade Sphynx Cattery

What is Scheherazade?

Scheherazade is a small, devoted sphynx cattery in New Berlin, Wisconsin, just outside Milwaukee and about an hour north of Chicago. Founded in 1998 by lifelong animal lover and experienced breeder Kristen Leedom, Scheherazade has proudly placed award‑winning Sphynx kittens with families all across the United States, and has shown in both TICA and CFA.

At the heart of the cattery is a simple promise:
“To give to other families what these special cats have given to mine.”
This isn’t just a mission statement—it’s the way every kitten is raised. Each baby is nurtured with gentle hands, constant attention, and the kind of care you give to someone already loved. Countless hours go into preparing your kitten so they grow into the healthy, confident, affectionate companion you’ve been dreaming of. Their health is also guaranteed* so you can welcome your new family member with peace of mind.

Sphynx cats are irresistibly charming, wrapping all their affection into warm, velvety bodies that feel like soft peach skin. Their short, downy fur gives them a uniquely touchable texture that makes every cuddle feel extra cozy.

These cats adore being close to their humans, often seeking out laps, shoulders, and any warm spot they can claim. With their playful energy and loving personalities, they quickly become the most unforgettable part of any home.
