Kitty pricing!

"And here is where I have a completely different view. Kittycats do not have a lifetime during which they worth something and then they are useless. How much is any kitty with purple rain eyes worth if you can find NOWHERE purple rain??" ............. Nektuu Said

Hey Nektuu,

I have 1 Male Purple Rain eyed Foxie S&P with Sassy Tail 7T lol

Ok I've not really said anything on this thread and I know a couple of people will be rolling their eyes People will ALWAYS sell 6-9T cats for 50-100L a piece. Nothing will change that, not new Menagerie Tigers, not more Kitty Bucks for menagering kitties. I know this to be a fact. When this thread was still in it's first couple of pages, notices of 50-100L cats sales were being posted. It gets to a point where you just end up with too many boxes and not enough store space. Sure you can hold onto them but realistically, they will just collect cyber dust. People do these sales for their own reasons. Maybe they have decided KC is not for them and are selling up and would rather not have all these cats laying around and would rather sell them cheap to recover a tiny portion of what they put out and to get rid of course. Some do it because they just have sooooo many boxes. Some do it because they are clearing the decks so to speak. Some do it to help newer breeders and some of course do it for a quick buck and greed.

This has always been so and will always be so. I'm not going to preach on here nor be a hypocrite. I myself have and will again have these cheap sales. My reason ?? My reason is many fold. 1: I think these particular cats are too good to menagerie but I'm just not in a position to breed them. 2: I have too many boxes and they are driving me insane. 3: I'm cutting down on breeding through the summer when we all know the market hits an even lower point than it is now. 4: I can't sell them any other way because the market is so bad. I DON'T do these sales for greed or to break the market or to under cut or under mind other breeders. Your going to say, well why don't you menagerie them ?? Believe me I do, my 5 menagerie kitties are proof of that and I'm half way to my 6th (only been breeding 1 yr 4 months). I just know how hard the market is at the moment, how breeders are struggling and if one of my "cheap as chips" kitties can benefit another breeder, then that makes me feel good. And before you say it, yes I also give cats away. I have to a few people and there's a particular little lady I have recently sent Toys and Teacups too because I just can't breed them and they are too cute to menagerie.

So back to my main point now that I've waffled a bit. These posts are great for seeing people's opinions (among other things) BUT these sales will ALWAYS be, it's part of the "Business" side of KC (Like supermarkets and Pound Stores) For every large business, there will always be a little guy on the corner with his peddler, selling the same thing for cheaper. It's the way the world works, KC, SL and RL.

Blessed be all and don't forget, KC is meant to be fun
