Isn't it heart breaking. Sadly I am very familiar with the tragedy of back street breeding in dogs and the waste of life caused through thoughtless breeders not caring where their pups go. Is there the same problem with breeders of cats? I have a suspicion that the problem with stray cats is mainly moggies that have not been neutered or spayed as kittens, rather than the pure breeds. Am I wrong? My brother and his wife rescued a birman some years ago and he is a beautiful cat with an amazing temperament. He is so brave and fearless! I love cats and used to live with a lady who had a lovely persian. When I was little my aunty had siamese that when they went outdoors had to go in a huge cat "kennel and run" with trees in it to climb (a bit like a zoo area I thought). I always thought it was strange she kept them trapped in and didn't let them free to roam like our moggies were, but I didn't really understand the dangers of the world to those pedigree cats. I would love to rescue a pure breed cat one day if there is one looking for a home. |

They do. Breed spacific rescue/welfare's The girl that gave up Simba was on the phone last night. Would you believe she wants him back! NO danger. She got quite abusive on the phone. Some people I ask you. I wouldnt give her the cold, never mind a dog. He has been legally signed over and thats the way it will stay. |

I wonder why the owner changed her mind? It is so strange isn't it. I wonder why she gave him up if she "loved him". Clearly she didn't deserve him and he is in a much better place now. I just had a call about a 6 months old pup who has been badly beaten by her "dad" and is wounded and terrified. I hate people sometimes. (I am moving house soon, all being well. When I have moved in and we are all settled I will look at the cat rescue sites in case I can help one or two .) |

That is a good recommendation for Mica's breeder in my opinion Chairman miaow. Someone who cares about the breed (and hopfully is knowledgeable about the genetics etc) and also about each individual that they bring into the world.....and will take them back and make sure they are cared for appropriately if need be. |
