Cat Flipping

[Arwen Swordthain]

Its unfortunate but I think flipping will always occur. As has been pointed out sometimes people get others to buy cats for them, maybe they can't be at an auction but want a cat.
I have spotted in my own pedigrees that cats I have sold at auction are still boxed and no longer owned by the person I sold them to. Spotted one just a few days ago a pretty Chat Cat Grey & White sporting Soft Fold Boo Boo ears now owned by an auctioneer who wasn't at the auction I sold it at.
Was it flipped or bought for them? I have no idea and unless you see your cat being sold as Red did its hard to know just from an ownership change exactly what occured.
But it happens and it always will. Once we sell our cats we lose control over what happens. Doesn't make it right or acceptable, just makes it life.
