Balinese, and the secondary market. Can we *avoid* having a round 2 of this?

Though new to breeding, I wish they were too.

I'm just getting to know the market, so can't say much about it, but I wish there were a broader middle range. I see kitties being sold like plywood cubes and advertised like objects (yes ,I know they are, but what's the point of making the object a kitty if it's not to feel it is a kitty? ). At the other end, I see exorbitant prices for collection kitties that cost many times less than that when they were out, or for kitties with a very recessive new trait and very little else.

I hope I see the market like this just because I'm new and I still have to discover more about it. Personally, I'm into breeding because I love kitties and I'm curious. There came a point at which I wanted to share my kitties (not many though -they always seem to be able to help solve a mystery in another kitty or vice versa or simply they're my babies). From my shop I expect to meet other people interested in breeding, learn more about my kitties' through the offspring others had more patience to breed (not all traits are equally interesting to me) and maybe help to pay for kitty kibble.
