Tom Cat won't breed with in-season queen!??
"Janet Boss" wrote in message ... In article , "CatNipped" wrote: very progbably contributing to that shelter population with his breeding practices - all breeders do which is one of the reasons millions of healthy cats are put to death every year in the US alone. Really? Shelters are full of responsibly bred dogs and cats? Your "data" seems non-existent. That's AR for ya. So sorry that it's alive and thriving on ignorance. To the OP - you need some closer mentors for advice. Public forums are likely to bring some pretty harsh criticism. I have no way of knowing how responsible a breeder you are. I support responsible breeding of cats and dogs, and shun irresponsible breeding. I am confused by those who actually support the irresponsible by not going after the real problems, but bitch about purebred breeding instead. -- It is my understanding that there are a few folks who have problems with the way you treat dogs, too. |

Yes, she didn't like my opinion on someone breeding purebred cats, so she's decided to crosspost all of her responses to me now. Sorry - I shouldn't go to the whacko cat group. I just hated the AR crap they were all spewing at the OP. -- Janet Boss www.bestfriendsdogobedience.com |

I just hated the AR crap they were all spewing at the OP. Well, there's a reason that the cats newsgroups were the birthplace of Usenet trolling. All that cutesy crap makes me gag. Anyway, way back then it was sort of a standard joke in soc.motss that I had a moron magnet. Between this lunatic, the aol dog behavior group idiots, and Paul, it appears that you've got the moron magnet for the dog and cat newsgroups. And the thing about the moron magnet is that once you've got it it's really, really hard to get rid of it. -- Melinda Shore - Software longa, hardware brevis - Prouder than ever to be a member of the reality-based community |

I just hated the AR crap they were all spewing at the OP. AR people are such whackos. And they refuse to acknowlege that there are a hell of a lot of GOOD breeders out there taking great pains to eliminate the genetic crap, and not over populate. Speaking of which, I just sent in Tuck's Cardiac OFA and his CERF to be registered for his breeder. Bad breeders won't spend $130 each for OFA hips + $15 to enter it in the database. $30 for OFA Cardiac + $15 to enter it in the database $130 for OFA thyroid + $15 to enter it in the database $30 for OFA Patellas + $15 to enter it in the database, $75 for OFA Elbows + $15 to enter it in the database $200 for OFA kidneys + $15 to enter it in the database and $32 for CERF testing, + $12 to enter it in the database It adds up. These were all tests requested of me by the breeder as progeny follow up to insure she's breeding healthy dogs and catches any mistakes, so it can be eliminated from the gene pool. You don't see any randomly bred animal having any effort at all to eliminate genetic defects, nor having progeny tracking. AR people and anti-purebred people are ignoring what the good breeders are doing, and through ignorance, lumping all breeders into the same group. I'd like to know why they think backyard breeders who let their animals select their own mates with no accountability nor responsibility, and no contracts to return any unwanted offspring to the breeder are such hot stuff. The answer is, they are ignorant a GOOD breeder is putting NOTHING into the shelters, and breeding animals that have a lifetime of healthy animals. I put a dog down two weeks ago at nearly 15, who had never had any more than routine maintenence her entire life. |

Marcie will get the whole deal when she's the right age, as did Franklin (didn't CERF or kidneys). For my peace of mind and for the breeder's information, as well as for the information of siblings. Franklin was not bred, nor was it ever intended, and the same goes for Marcie. But their littermates were/will be and that information is important for all. -- Janet Boss www.bestfriendsdogobedience.com |

And Tuck has to have all this redone at age 5... per the parent breed club recommendations. Of course Cerf is done yearly. Yes it's expensive, but his breeder knew I would do the tests, and report back, which is why she gave him to me. Obviously health to her takes priority over profit. But AR lunatics never acknowlege the good breeders at all (And this is not a small pool of exceptional breeders either. Purebred breeders of most breeds ARE pooling resources and databanks, and sharing what they are finding out in efforts to eliminate genetic defects in the purebred dog. If you get a genetic mess, it's YOUR fault because you (collectively , not personally) were too stupid to research your breeders and find out what they are doing about genetic defects. Most likely, you got your mess from a puppy mill or backyard breeder. |
