Re: Advice on New Kitten
Hi Mylo and welcome on here. Sorry to read about your poorly ragdoll kitten. I think others have already given good advice - it seems like the breeder is a good, genuine person who takes responsibility for her babies. I do hope the little one recovers quickly and that perhaps the kitten may be back with you soon but if not, please don't feel back about returning the kitten. As a kitten buyer, I would do the same and as a breeder, I would EXPECT any kitten to come back to me if there was anything amiss and vet bills would be repaid to you.
Sometimes, even if you do not have catties/other pets at home with you, when a new kitten arrives, it will be used to the 'germs' in its own environment and will experience quite a 'knock' to its little system having to cope with first its vaccinations just a week prior to moving to the new environment's 'germs'. Please do not read this the wrong way - I am not saying that anyone's house is dirty - just that we all have different set ups and will have at a molecular level, different air, different water, different things for a kitten's metabolism to cope with. This may set up a reaction. Some kittens feel this worse than others. I doubt with there is anything inherently wrong with your breeder's practises or her lines in particular.
Wishing you a happy outcome soon.
