Sadly we lost our cat recently and it was devastating for us as had him such a long time and he was part of the family.

We know we can not replace him but we do feel we want to give a loving home to a kitten .

We have been going on pet sites and to be honest feel very shocked by how much people are wanting for kittens that are not pedigree. I have seen £100 mainly and going up to £200.

While I realise it is best to charge something to try and make sure it is going to someone who really wants one, I feel it is exploiting people and also the poor cats. I mean obviously people are wanting money so when the cat has kittens chances are they will breed it again.

I even saw one person selling kittens saying the mother had been killed and she was selling for a friend this was in a certain area last summer and the same area same post again mother killed selling for a friend.

Just wondered what peoples views were on this ?
