I'm sorry if people find this post offensive, but I find it offensive that this poster confesses to be a backyard breeder and then wonders why her cats are deformed.
O come on, you can't possibly say that without any evidence. Do you know of any gene for flat ears? I don't! It is surely very unlikely that Claire has been unfortunate enough to have "discovered" a new deleterious gene.

The conformity or otherwise of her cats to a standard of points that, at the end of the day, is about perceived beauty rather than ability to survive in natural conditions, is irrelevant to this question.
