Everyone is talking about the collection cats hurting things...if you go to an auction the majority and I will say this again the majority of cats are Balinese of some kind or Foxie, there is no variety. Maybe they sell, I don't really know as I don't sell either of those furs myself, but I will say that I notice the majority of them go for no sales as most people have them. A lot of times with auctions another problem is that one cat will go very cheap and then the next panel is extremely expensive, many times they are same cats with the same hiddens. As a buyer I have seen very very few cats lately I've wanted to add to my cattery as I find them boring. Everyone breeds for super recessive things and for myself I noticed that often is easier to breed for than dominant traits.
I do think KittyCats has done a great job with some of the new traits as they aren't super recessive. This makes for breeding challenges that many of us look for. I think collection cats do hurt in a way as people will focus their money on buying them however, not everyone does that. I think too large of collections are the problem, not new releases. KittyCats needs to make money and keep us interested and they are doing what they can to help.

, Tapestry Organica, that makes them 11 traits and maybe more?
And not all of them look good in my opinion, I'm sure we didn't need all these so so traits, I would prefer better less ones.
Not everyone is going to like the same traits that everyone else likes. Saying one trait is better than another really isn't so cool. I personally have loved a lot of the traits that have just come out.
