And yet if someone is willing to pay that price, how's that unfair? This is a market-driven economy just like any other. A cat is worth what you or someone else is willing to pay for it, bottom line. I've had 9t cats with 'decent' traits go for amazing amounts simply because i took the time to breed out an especially nice-looking combination of traits. I've had other 9t cats with one or two really recessives but not so nice combos go for far less.
Bottom line, it's all about what catches someone's eye.
