Hello All
I am looking for some advice on starting my own cattery. I have not yet made a for sure decision to do this yet but am doing my research and would like to hear from others about how they got started and what steps I will need to go through to start my own cattery if I decide to do so.
I am a stay at home mom and have a lot of time to devote to my kitties (Himalayans and Persians are my passion). As well, I have always been an animal lover, for as long as I can remember. My best friends were and are my pets and I treat my pets as if they are family. They are fed high quality food (Orijen) and are regularly taken to the vets.
You could ask everyone from my family to my friends to my vet just how much I care about my animals and love them. I know that being a reputable breeder can be quite challengeing and stressful but I also know that it can be very rewarding.
I have done my research on the Himalayan and Persian breed. I also have researched health and nutrition and do plan on taking my veterinary assistance course quite soon to further my knowledge.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. You cannot find too much information online and I have emailed other catteries to ask for help but have so far received no replies.
Thank you very much
