Becha it's getting to be more rare than most of the recent 'awesome' traits, and many of the 'meh. whatever' middlin' traits from four or five years ago.
Someday someone is gonna look around and say, "I looked everywhere are there are NO Red Tabby boxes!"
OK, OK. So last year when I said the exact same thing a few of you ran to your Catteries and came back to say you had some.
And you're going to do it again, right now.
But betcha fewer of you are coming back to say you have some.
Some day you're all gonna come back and say "Oh, no, we can't find any anywhere."
And when that day comes, you're all gonna agree, 1/2-a-million L$ for a breeding pair of Red Tabbies is quite fair.
And you're all gonna kick yourselves for dumping them into the Menagerie.
Just sayin'
I love Red Tabbies and actually have some on sale in my store, but I understand your point. Breeders like me are few and far between, most breed only what they like and menagerie anything they can't easily sell or use. Thankfully there are those of us that stash away just in case and that make a point of collecting every traits, genesis included so we can know that nothing will ever be lost, but to find a lot of those traits you'd have to know who to ask because you won't find them easily on the markets.
Personally I think anything that keeps traits outand easy to find is a good thing, so what if they are low T boxes and a bit cheaper, isn't that the fun? To take them and make something new and different over toime til you get that perfect 9T cat you are after. A friend of mine does just that takes low T boxes and traits them up she took a load of mine to save them from the menagerie. Yes I menagerie because if I didn't I'd have in excess of 20K boxes by now
Your lesser trait cat boxes still have value!
