Selling Cats Without Enabled Pedigrees

[Ivy Norsk]

I completely agree about the usefulness of pedigrees and certainly can't imagine an auction cat without one available.

I think Morgan is a perfect illustration of why we shouldn't get too upset about the lack: there is no good overall mechanism for letting people know to do this. People are new, they don't know everything, there's a learning curve to KittyCats regarding sales as well as breeding. In addition, the requirement that we have to tick a box for every single cat separately guarantees that some cats are going to slip through the cracks unless people are very methodical all the time about how they set their kitties up for sale.

I don't think people don't enable pedigrees because they're trying to hide something because I don't think there's really anything to hide. A pedigree can't hurt, it can only help.
