reeding:We here at Color bi dsign keep our babies until 14 to16 weeks of age before allowing them to go to their new homes.
There are several reason for this. Most important is the health of the kittens. We want to make sure that they are healthy and have
had most of or all of their shots. In addition to this, when showing a kitten they change immensely and
we want to make sure when we sell a kitten we are doing our best to sell a show kitten as close to the CFA standard as possible
and that we sell a pet quality Kitten as a pet. This takes time to evaluate.
uying your First Show Kitty:Buying your first
show kitty is difficult, to say the least. There is an enormous turn over in Breeders. In my own opinion
they are Failing to achieve on the show circuit, because the Breeder they have purchased their show
kitty from misled then about the quality of the Kitten. Another issue is that unknowing customers are being sold
a kitten of Poor Health (eg Leukemia)
New comers are also often treated less than civil at a Cat shows by other exhibitors,
which is truly sad and poor sportsmanship. This is an issue that CFA is working on to make new exibitors feel more comfortable.
But all in all there are many amazing people in the CFA. Many will become life long friends. As the saying goes, don't
let one bad apple spoiled the whole bunch. For every bad person there are five good ones, who love what they do and would help
a New comer in anyway possible.
