You might also want to consider the possibility (when contacting them) of rehoming an older kitten/cat. It might just be my area, but there are quite a few older MC's out there looking for new homes.
lol

That is exactly what I did! We both work, so in my opinion with my circumstances didn't want to buy a 13 week old kitten. I deliberately looked for older adoptees.

Some of the breeders do rehome queens or studs that for whatever reason they want to retire. There have been other threads about the whys and wherefores of this, but in my opinion its fine. Most breeders will not release a cat they have bred from unless it is to the right person and the right environment. The breeder will neuter the cat before letting it go, as well.

Look on the webpages of breeders to find older cats.
