Easter Cats

[Melanie774 Kidd]

I also agree that we need to recover a bit more from the last several massive releases. Every now and then, while having a conversation with some random fellow breeder I've met at a bid board or auction, I'll hear things like "I finally cleared up my cattery enough to have room to start unpacking some of my Winter kitties", etc.

IMHO, the best course of action for KittyCats at this particular moment in time is to have a small release for Easter (small both in terms of variety of limited edition cat, as well as brand new traits). This should be enough to sate the hunger for newness that pretty much all of us have, without contributing more to the sense of being overwhelmed (and even discouraged) that I'm getting out of some of the posts in this thread.


And, going back to some of the comments I saw earlier in this thread? The way I see it, the market is balanced out by both larger and smaller breeders.

It's mainly the larger breeders who are either discovering the very newest traits by sheer virtue of the numbers they're playing, or using the resources at their disposal to purchase the newest traits and then breed them out.

The smaller breeders, being that they're not carrying as much kitties in their catteries, are not as likely to discover the very newest stuff (although there is always a chance!). They're more likely to focus on their favorite furs/traits and will splurge on introducing a new trait into their cattery when they can afford it, both L$-wise and prim-wise.

While it's understandable that some of the larger breeders may want an all-out gigantic Easter release, it should be kept in mind that many of their sales are made to their smaller counterparts. If the market loses too many of the smaller breeders due to their feeling discouraged or what have you, this will cut into the sales of the larger breeders as well.
