I remember the bellyaching about the 30 minute box delay and how nice it was to have it reduced to only 15 minutes. I had not heard (but it makes sense that it's this way) that there was no 15-minute delay birthing a box on the web site. It's too bad that Cattery users get preferential treatment. It seems that the only fair solution would be to eliminate the 15-minute delay.
There are a LOT of other differences between how it works in-world and how it works in the Cattery and it would be a Very Good Idea to work to eliminate them. The re-box tool is but one example. It's only available in-world and should be make available to Cattery users. If I thought on it, I could probably come up with a surprisingly extensive list.
Yes I much agree with you both breeding in world or via the Online cattery should be similar in all aspects.

I have to disagree with cats needing to be partnered to breed in world. I actually like the oopsie, or random aspect and sometimes keep a few pairs of kitties on the same cycles and within the same distance of each other so they pick their own mate. I thought the point of the partner option was to control this issue for people who don't like accidental breeding.
I sometimes sell some of my live breeding cats, so I don't want the partnering issues to pass on to my customers. I would actually prefer partnering to automatically be removed upon transfer so that it is no longer an issue.
Good Point!
I'd like the best of both worlds for those who like the accidental breedings and those who do rather not have them
