RE: Getting "pissy" about the left out older breeds of kitties
It's very good to breed what you love. But for anyone with a larger amount of cats it can be quite costly, if the cats you love arent ones that sell so well.
Clearly if the cost is no issue it doesnt matter, but, if it is, I think its important to maybe split up your cattery in some way. Like 70% of the cats are the loved ones and 30% are some projects that follow the market trend to make a little money to pay for your loved kittens.
And I dont understand why there seems to be so many people against high end cats. Not everyone breeds for the same reasons. My only motviation for breeding kittycats these days are that I have many friends in the community so i enjoy the social aspect of it, but for breeding wise I am in it for the competition of delivering beautiful new kittens. And I dont mean like a 1 traited new fur. Although I've sold that too a few times. But that is part of the competitive side of it for me, because the better I do financially, the more i can spend on a new trait or a fabulous cat to put into my breeding program and continue be competitive in my breeding.
