RE: Getting "pissy" about the left out older breeds of kitties
It's not always a matter of just breeding high end kitties. It can also be a matter of size of cattery and breeding plans.
I used to breed all different furs from up and down the chart, but to keep my cattery small had to focus on a smaller group of furs.
To be honest I have been breeding a long time and it's always nice to have something different to work with.
Those older kitties for some are new, for others have been around a while and have seen over breeding for a time.
I know siam lilac was a fave for a lot of ppl, (I'm sure it still is) but I just got tired of seeing them all over.
Being more recessive doesn't make a high end kitty. Demand and rarity makes it high end.
You can have a new kitty with new fur or traits, but if ppl don't want it or don't want to pay higher prices for it, it becomes a low end kitty, market wise.
Up until the the menagerie kitties I had most the older furs in boxes and had no need to buy them. I think this too had an effect on the market and popularity.
All I"m trying to say is that to us all our kitties are priceless no matter how old or new they are, and we shouldn't judge them by the market. Not everyone has the same tastes. Not everyone have the same breeding plans.
The market is fickle it always has been.
You know the work and time you put into your kitties. Don't let anything else take away from that.
Just keep watching them roll around in all their cuteness as they stick their lil tongues out at you after giving you yet another all gen box. ugh! EVIL KITTIES! rofl
