This is not a personal attack on anyone so dont get worked up, i am just trying to work out why people really look down on people who have an accidental litter.

I know everyone who has posted above sounds very understanding regarding this, but what happens if people have a go, would i be looked down on if i decided i wanted to breed my pedigree cats?
what accidentally?

If you did it properly from registered active cats (therefore not breaking the trust or agreement that you had with the breeder), did all the tests etc etc why would anyone look down on you.

Can you DECIDE to breed ACCIDENTALLY - surely that's an oxymoron! I surely hope the OP doesn't accidentally breed his peds. He is aware now and an 'accident' should be even less likely to happen. If he wants to breed his peds then he has to do it properly otherwise . . . .

Re: who here breeds cats?

I breed Siamese, we have a litter of three at the moment, all have homes to go to, we will miss them when they have gone, they are so playful and love to be cuddled too.

We also have an Havana coming to us in February which will be another breeding queen, can't wait to collect her.

Take a look at our website if you get the chance...hope you like it.

Re: who here breeds cats?

I breed Cats too, I also work with them everyday, I have Catteries, I groom Cats and Dogs, Pet Sit, Microchip, Also supply Pet Supplies my whole day is made up of Pets and their owners. I love it, I have the best Job in the world.

I originally started with Just One Siamese Active registered Female years ago, and it went from there, I over the years have developed our business from their according to needs of our Clients and Customers.

When it comes to breeding I personally I want to produce Quality rather than Quantity, and go to great lengths to ensure perfect health, perfect temperament.

Also when it comes to breeding you have to realise that it is always a learning curve, and there are many different approaches, Every breeder has their own little quirks and likes to raising their Kittens, and maintaining their Queens and Studs. It pays to talk to as many owners and breeders as you can when considering to breed, as the more knowledge you gain from people who have hands on experience can be very valuable indeed.

Also I always tell people to do your research, dont just Pick a breed because you love it, you need to also make sure their is a market for your breed, and that the market is not too badly saturated in your area, more breeders, breeding your chosen breed the harder it is to find homes for your Kittens, also do not pick a breed rare as you will have simalar difficulty in finding new homes but for very different reasons.

When you start out set yourself small goals, to produce healthy Kittens in a particular colour, once you get hands on experience you can then choose your overal goal whether it is to enhance a particular part of the choosen breed larger ears, advance colour genetics, creating new breeds, Breeding to win shows etc etc.
