Cat Forum / General Topics / April 2005Kittens!
I know that you people from America are hesitant about breeding. That's why I held myself back for three (!) full days, but now I have to say: We've got three beautiful kittens last Saturday, and Cinderella did everything according to the book (she must have read it secretly). They're sooooooooooooo sweet! And I have already more people wanting them than I can take. One farmer said to me that he has 8 people asking for kittens at the moment, but his cat didn't get pregnant this spring ... We are all surprised that the kittens are tuxedos, the mother is white with tabby tail - and I caught her with a tabby male singing in front of my bedroom window. But she must have had an affair with a black and white fellow before ... Our poor Micky (neutered male) is at the end of his wits: first he was afraid when he heard a kitten cry and hid under the bed - then he had a generous look at the newcomers and hissed badly.

Just because some of us Americans are vehemently anti-breeding, it doesn't mean we don't get kitten fever, too .. :-) You should have my Frank right now. He loves babies. Everytime I've brought a rescue kitten in, he bathes it, fusses over it, really mothers it. It's really cute. Sherry : Do you have pictures yet Carola? I'd love to see them.

Elia is my favourite because he has a white point at the back of his tail and a little black spot in his face, plus he is the smallest. Carola >: Do you have pictures yet Carola?

There are actually two rabbits, the other one is somewhere on a photo playing with the cat. I'm surprised how well the cat mother does her job with the kittens, and she's very generous: We're all allowed to stick our noses in, even Eva the dog and our neutered Tom. The latter is afraid of the babies, he hid under the bed when one of the little ones screamed ... Eva has taken on the job to guard the basket with the cats. But I have a feeling she just makes sure that she's there when Cindy gets a treat! Carola : You have a beautiful Family Eva looks sweet also and a rabbit to fill it : out fantastic... [quoted text clipped - 15 lines] : > : > They're so sweet! It's a bit of generalization to say that all Americans are anti-breeding. I respect ethical breeders who have established a breeding program in an effort to preserve the breed. This includes having proper genetic and health tests performed on all their animals prior to breeding. I'm not sure where you're located, but I find it hard to believe that pet overpopulation is only a problem in America. > It's a bit of generalization to say that all Americans are anti-breeding. > I respect ethical breeders who have established a breeding program in an [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > -- > Message posted via http://www.catkb.com First, NO ONE said "all" Americans are anti-breeding. Second, I do not know, or pretend to know, the status of overpopulation in Carola's country. Third, breeding in general has been discussed ad nauseum on this group already. You might do a google search if you're new here. And last, you're welcome to start a new thread if you're wanting to discuss the ethics of breeding.
