Gememerald

Gememerald is a small, family-style cattery in New Jersey, in the greater Philadelphia area, run by Dr. Dmitry S. Gembitsky, dedicated to breeding and showing Russian blue cats.

Registered with both the Cat Fanciers' Association (CFA) and The International Cat Association (TICA), the program sits within the CFA North Atlantic and TICA Mid Atlantic regions. The cattery produces only one or two litters per year, keeping its scale intentionally limited so each cat receives close individual attention in a home environment. Kittens are raised with socialization as a priority and are not placed in new homes until they reach at least four months of age.

Gememerald's breeding program draws from Grand Champion, Supreme Grand Champion, Regional Award, National Award, and Breed Winner lines. Health screening covers HCM, hip dysplasia, PKD, PK deficiency, and PRA, and all pet kittens are altered prior to placement. Each adoption is backed by a written sales contract and a written health guarantee that includes a genetic component.

The cattery has a notable show record. Among its cats, Antigene earned the TICA International Breed Winner title, was ranked 22nd Best International Cat of the Year across all breeds, and received TICA's 2019–2020 Lifetime Achievement Award — the association's highest honor. Firiona Vie, born at Gememerald, similarly earned the TICA International Breed Winner title, placed 3rd Best International Kitten of the Year, and received the 2020–2021 Lifetime Achievement Award. For families and cat enthusiasts searching for Russian blue kittens in New Jersey, Gememerald represents a show-active, small-scale program with a strong emphasis on health, temperament, and breed-standard quality.
