I did indeed watch the video you posted, Balalika. I also quoted it in my post, so I am surprised that you're concluding that I didn't even bother to watch it.
-And since it is apparently not clear enough from what I posted above, let me just post a disclaimer: Whatever my opinions of pedigree cats are, I did not mean it as a personal attack on you. I simply disagree with your view on these things, and with TICA's and most other pedigree cat associations about their view on "responsible" breeding. Simple as that. Disagreement. Not calling you a monster, not bashing you for posting your opinion, not thinking you shouldn't do it another time - just disagreeing. This does not mean I think you're a bad person, or that I would disagree with other opinions you might voice. I am sure you are a nice person - I just happen to disagree with you about pedigree cats. I hope you will not think me a bad person due to my opinion on this one subject, either.
That I call it a disorder is my opinion, and I stand by it. It would be a serious disorder if it had happened in a human, right? -Hardly comparable to red hair, in my view
(Even though some could argue that red hair and the connected gene variation in skin & neural system that comes with it actually could be considered a disorder, I think I will not go into that discussion here
-I have a son with red hair btw.)
