Kayla, thank you so much!
The Bandit II is just fine, but it's not the cat's hidden trait which is what I'm after. I guess what I'd like to be able to do is get to a 9 traited cat, however I get it and and however it looks. That'll take some time and effort though. I'm just pretty sure I won't be able to get there with just the starter cats. It'll take several generations of breeding.
I'm reading through your other thread as I have time, but since I only have a 25% chance to get the hidden traits, you're saying that it's more effective to breed the starters to a cat with more recessive traits? I'm actually okay working my way through several generations with starters, mostly because I think it'll help me get a better handle on how this all works.
As for what I'll get out of it, I don't think I'll be able to get much out of selling, simply because I don't think I'll have the time to put into it. Breeding is like a puzzle though, and I like puzzles.
