Hi - as others have said you can work fulltime and breed (we do). It does help that my other half works shifts and we plan our leave carefully. We also have a good support network who can step in and help at very short notice. So long as you plan ahead and are sensible there shouldn't be an issue.

Try to get a mentor to help you and make sure you know what paperwork etc you should get/have with your breeding girl and whether or not you have any restrictions.

Hope it works out for you.

PLUS you wont want to go to work when they are born

I have 2 Siamese breeding queens who have 1 litter a year. I do work part-time and book my annual leave around the births. While I do think you can do both dont forget the things you cant do, such as go on holiday and have a full nights sleep

I managed quite well for the years I was breeding and working full-time as well... with no support apart from friends/mentors at the end of a phone. The main problem was making sure the kittens had enough meals once they were weaned, but that was solved using the battery-operated timed feeders that had just come on the market. I gave them a meal at breakfast time, then set the feeders for two meals during the day, fed them immediately after coming in from work, and another just before I went to bed.

Mum was also left with plenty of dry food to snack on during the day. It was hard work though!

Hi
I dont work, but I know friends that do work and cat breed also and they seem to manage fine. Although as someone mentioned if there is a problem it can be tough I would imagine.

I breed Siberians which are quite a rare breed in the UK at the moment.
