I am pretty sure 90% plus of pedigree breeders sell to indoor homes only.

Hahah thank you!

Most breeders will say they want certain things but sadly not all owners follow through with those wishes neutering especially...

Re: british shorthair cats

My baby will be neutered before I get him! I am very happy with that, my vet does it at 14weeks, his a angel! Some people are just stupid, just neuter them, they will love you for it more than having babies with a million daddies or their own brother! Yes I guess that some people will just let them out anyway and just lie to the breeder

its good to see more vets are coming around to the idea of paediatric neuters. Hopefully it will be more widespread soon. Mine don't do it until 6 months which is just enough time to forget or have 'accidents' unfortunately!

Re: british shorthair cats

My BSH Oscar was bought with the intention of keeping him in but I stupidly showed him outside so if he ever got out he would know his way back! From then on he used to cry to go out so I let him, at first he used to stay in the garden but got braver and braver and started going further since his accident (which was inevitable really considering he used to think the road was his and that cars should drive round him) he now has his cat run and also goes out on his harness! I won't let him out alone again! BSH are deffo not meant for the outdoors for their own good!

Re: british shorthair cats

I guess there arent any breeders of brits on here? Wondered what they thought to if they found out that people let their cats outside?
