Re: What is the maximum...


I've been to see llitters of pups and walked away (hard hearted thats me) and I went to see a couple of litters of kittens before Archie (cat before Oscar and Cleo) and walked away.

As Smudgley says you need to be strong but "know" what you want and if that litter isn't it then no point going further.

Re: What is the maximum...


Thanks for all your advice everyone. Tis a hard topic!

Thinking of the financial side - £400 is a lot of money and I do need to think of everyone else in my family! Chloe and Misty need their booster jabs, Sean has a school holiday that is £400 I have to pay, Emma needs new clothes, etc etc.... All adds up. Can I justify £400 I dont really have at the moment?

Only you know the answer to that Donna. It depends how much you want a pedigree kitten, you'll get just as much enjoyment & fun out of a moggie. I think you need to have a good think about it first. Good luck whatever you decide to do.

Re: What is the maximum...


i have paid up to £600 (ragdoll) for a kitten but it was not money that i needed, i would never use money that i could spend eles were on a pup or a kitten.
all pedigree kittens should have the both sets of jabs be at least 12 weeks old and litter trained, depending on breed they should also have health checks.
