Mmmmm!
Where to start!
There is no easy answer!
I think we are all partly to blame for this!
What makes a good cat, there will be many different answer to this.......!
Lets start! Cats do not only have a fur! So many of us get caught up in the fur hip that we forget it is only one of the traits!
Cats have 9 traits, two don't count for me "shape and size" of eye. So it leaves us with five more! Mmmm... "Color of eyes" is a
tricky one, not all colors go well on all furs, but we need to throw that out of the window for where I want to go!
Recessiveness of a cat!
The more recessive traits a cat have the more work was put into that cat?
Be it someone got it from a starter just now, or a cat that have a very long blood line.
Most of the time starters don't have too many recessive traits and they need too be breed.
Getting to a basic 9t cat don't take that long with a new fur!
Do 9T make it a good cat?
No!
To me it is the start to make a even better cat!
One with stuff that one don't see too often, one more "Recessive" to be correct!
Or one with traits one can't be find in normal starters.
Those are the cats I want see go for big money!
(The ones that was not made by the spin of a dice on starters)
"Remember if you ask 50K for a basic 9t cat it is very possible for me to make that same cat for only 30K with starter cats myself"
My point is a fur don't make a cat, it is only one trait and I for one won't ask a million k$ for it and I'm not willing
to pay it as well, a cat needs too be a full house not just a fur, or a one trait too cost 50 -100K !
I pay for the work that go into a cat! "Not the spin of a dice on starters"
What do you pay for?
