La Bella Vita British Shorthair Cattery
Welcome to La Bella Vita British Shorthair Cattery in Sardinia, where we specialise in breeding British Shorthairs with certified pedigrees. Founded by Alessandro and Simona out of their love for the breed, our cattery has a clear aim: to raise healthy, well-balanced cats that meet the breed standard, while fully respecting their natural needs. We have created more than a cattery: it is an environment designed to give every cat wellbeing, safety and a good quality of life.
Our Philosophy
At La Bella Vita, we believe well-balanced kittens come from contented adults. That is why every decision is guided by:
- respect for cats’ natural needs
- responsible use of space
- close attention to health and behaviour
Every space is carefully planned to provide a calm, enriching environment where our cats can move freely within safe boundaries.
Careful Breeding and Quality
La Bella Vita Cattery is registered with ANFI and recognised by FIFe, ensuring adherence to international standards.
Our daily work focuses on:
- careful selection of bloodlines
- genetic testing and health screening
- sound physical development
- balanced, sociable temperaments
Every kitten grows up in a family home, with daily human contact and early socialisation.
An Environment Designed for Wellbeing
Our cattery’s spaces are designed to support both physical and mental wellbeing.
A Secure, Purpose-designed Courtyard
Our fully enclosed courtyard is divided into separate areas to allow:
- careful management of our cats
- respect for individual temperaments and group dynamics
- maintaining high standards of hygiene and health
Each area is securely separated to ensure complete safety.
Managed Access Between Indoors and Outdoors
Each area connects to the house through automatic smart cat flaps, allowing:
- safe, independent movement
- monitoring of entries and exits
- shelter from the weather
Our cats can choose where to spend their day, following their own natural rhythms.
Well-equipped, Enriching Catios
Our outdoor catios are designed to stimulate both body and mind, with:
- scratching posts
- shelves and raised walkways
- ramps and bridges
- resting spots and play areas
A varied, stimulating environment that supports physical and mental wellbeing.

At La Bella Vita, our cats:
- have plenty of space, without overcrowding
