    At What Age Do Show Breeders Set Kitten Prices?

    I know it can take 6 months or longer to determine show quality/ show potential in kittens. I release my kittens between 12-14 weeks old and at this point in time I’m basing my prices on bloodlines, genetic testing, and show potential. But it can be hard to know exact show quality on kittens...

    Odd Estrus Accompanied With Strange Behavior

    I have a newly acquired queen who had just turned a year old when I got her 2 months ago.

    Will Her Coat Fill Out?

    I recently got a new baby (born 6/2/17) so she’s almost 5 months old. Her coat isn’t as long as my other Persians. It’s dense enough I guess but just not very long.

    Color Genetics Question

    I'm trying to plan ahead and decide carefully which one of my studs to breed with my new tortie point female, and I have a question.

    Stud Service Question

    This is the first time I'm allowing one of my males to stud outside of my own queens and I have a question. I've done a good bit of research and I think I have all my ducks in a row except for this one complication. If I'm asking for female pick of the litter instead of stud fee, how can I...

    So my vet recently informed me that I could split a capstar between my cats because they only require _____ amount per pound (or cat) , or some such. However, my vet is closed now and I can't remember if she said I could half it for two cats or quarter it for 4 cats. I'm thinking it was...
