Re: Pregnant Cat


They have to prove it, there should be a system where people have to be on a register if they breed or want to breed.

Re: Pregnant Cat


What like the GCCF? Just like the Kennel Club, it means very little.

So you are telling me that as long as they are registered with the gccf you beleive that they are "reputable" breeders who breed only to better the breed, even if that is only asthetically?
What alot of rubbish.

Re: Pregnant Cat


I cannt beleive that you would support such a stupid statement. We have had several breed specific rescues post here, you yourself began a thread about rescues, didnt you see how many breed specific rescues there are in or around your area?

I didn't mean that Elaine. What I meant was it's better to have some sort of system than just letting everyone do as they like.

Re: Pregnant Cat


The responsible buyer can also do some research on the breeder. We can at least weed out the obvious kitten-farmers and clueless back-room breeders.
I spent a good few years finding Rover's and despite his much-too-short life, I fully believe there was nothing they could have done to prevent it. They have proven to be responsible, honest, friendly and pro-active.

I am not supporting any breeder Elaine. What I was trying to say was although I don't agree with breeding, I can tolerate those who breed to better a specific breed, if that makes sense.

In my opinion rescues should be the first port of call for anyone looking to adopt a new pet.

Why do you think I have the username rescuecatsrule?

Then maybe you should think about what you are saying in your posts before posting them in order for your position not to mis-interpreted.
