I had some questions for breeders if there happen to be any on the board. We have been considering doing a small cattery on our property for some time. We have an acre and a lot of room for a nice set up. We are home most of the time, don't travel, and spend a lot of time with our animals. I think we would be good candidates for breeding. I would love to teach my daughter about breeding and even do some 4H work around it. We would definetely like to breed bengals, I have bengals and Savannahs and know more about their personalities than other cats. We aren't doing it as a money making venture, just for the love of the breed. Although I am hoping that the kittens help to pay the vet costs, ect.
We aren't in a hurry, and we would like to start small and do everything by the book. Any advice? I have no idea how to get started, and I feel like only the more lax breeders will even talk to me at this point. I don't want our cattery to be that type of cattery that sells a bunch of cats to anyone to make a buck, but those are the types of people who want to sell cats to someone who is starting out.
I would love to find a breeder to take me under their wing, teach me a bit about showing and breeding. Any advice is helpful.
