I don't ship my kittens under any conditions - I will interview long distance by phone and email and if a person is willing to fly or drive a long distance to pick up one of my kittens then I have to assume it will have a wonderful home. One of Sandie's people came from Michigan to Connecticut...

Both breeds are intelligent and striking - the Ocicat has the personality of an Aby and the activity level, seeing as that was one of the breeds that created it. Bengals have come a long way from the times when a judge could not handle them in the show ring - just make sure if you choose a...

I agree with Sandie and Frannie - Abyssinians are in your face cats, but not if you ignore them and fail to socialize them when they are young. Always insist on going to the breeders house and meet the family and see if the cats are caged before choosing a kitten. Cornish Rex, Turkish Angoras...

I am an Aby breeder and I only advertise on the internet - through my website - www.pentaclecats.com - and I belong to www.breedlist.com. I have more inquiries than I will ever have kittens. I make the people come for an interview when my cats are expecting. They meet the cats that we are...

Thank you everyone who said they would write - as to what to say - just whats in your heart - she should get the maximum penalty and do some jail time. Oh, and the jail she would be going to has some real animal lovers there as they have a program where the inmates raise dogs to become...

The death of Adonis haunts us and we don't want his death to be in vain. Animal abusers are seldom punished harshly and this will probably not be any different - but I would ask anyone who would be willing to take the time to write to the New Britain State's Attorney, please do so and ask for...

Adonis was a feral kitten who was taught to love and trust humans by CATALES the sister organization of Helping Paws. Adonis was named because he was so beautiful the gods and goddesses loved him. He was adopted by a young woman who lived with a roommate. When there was a disagreement between...

It really sounds like your punishments are leading to the aggressive behavior - However, on the off chance it is not, I recommend a book - The Cat who cried for Help by Nicholas Doddman from Tufts University. There is a wonderful chapter on Obsessive/Compulsive Aggression - also information...

Persians are large boned heavy cats with pushed in faces. However, you can very well have a pet quality Persian and so what? If your baby is sweet and docile (as most Persians are) and healthy - it doesn't matter if the kitten is show quality or not. If you want a show quality Persian, you...

We all feel really bad when someone we love dies, especially if we think we didn't do something we should have. You cannot feel guilty, think instead of all the wonderful memories you have with your friend and how much you loved her - she is close and remembering all the good things too. I...

I have the wine to bring - and I can't wait to taste Vinny's Italian cooking. We will see you at your new place on the 13th!

Frannie's coming home and we are going to PARTY - now there will be another couple in the crowd. We get to eat Vinnie's Italian cooking while we drink our wine! I'm glad your coming home Frannie!

I must agree with PiddyPats - kittens are killed every day. I have been rescuing for five years and many owners come into unforseen problems and their cats go to shelters, many do not get adopted and are killed. Although your kitty is certainly cute and you love her, she is a domestic cat, a...

I have suffered from TMJ for over thirty years and it boggles my mind that they have not found anything in those thirty years to help ease the pain and "cure" it. I started as a guinea pig at the UConn medical center - they caused more pain then the TMJ. I have learned to live with it but if...

The people who come to you insisting they want a six week old kitten are the same ones who come banging on your door when the kitten becomes sick because her immune system could not handle being away from her mother and the stress and the first shot got to her. Or worse yet, kittens die easily...

I think that is just Tigger's personality and it does not matter at what age you got him. We got our Merlot (our Aby) at Seven months of age and our newest Aby Luna, is seven months and they are absolute loves. We also rescued a 7 week old domestic who is now four years old, had the same love...

How perfectly awful - I just wanted to take a moment to say my prayers are with you and I am so sorry. But God protected you and your husband and the vast majority of your furry creatures. You obviously are still meant to be here. You care for so many ferals and are needed by so many...

This is actually more of a case of people behavior modification rather than kitty behavior. We have an absolutely wonderful kitty who will pee on my husbands dirty clothes. He leaves his clothes on the floor - the answer is for him to not leave them on the floor and put them in the hamper...

One of the really good places to go to learn info about both cats and about breeders on most any breed is www.breedlist.com Not every breeder keeps their own page up to date but enough do and there are lots of standards of each breed from various cat registries, etc.

Try getting up just ten minutes early and keep that time for him. Play with him with a teaser or another of his favorite toys or brush him for a few minutes. When you come home, forget about anything else you think you need to do - spend ten minutes giving him quality time. Whatever it is you...
