honestly most who use the term teacup sell babies that are not healthy...back yard breeders and if you have ever watch hoarders..the animal episode and see how those babies live you would better understand what people are trying to convey. they breed babies who are a smaller weight than should be bred and that in turn causes health/congenital issues for these wee lil ones....mix that with a breeder who is not putting the momma and babies health concerns/needs first and you end up in a very bad situation falling in love with a baby who is sick or worse doesnt make it thru their first year of life. you may see that term as ok but if you do some serious yt thread research it may just change how you see it....it did for me. i used to see that term as fine until i joined yt now i understand why it is not a good term to use. please dont think anyone means it in a negative light they are just very passionate about the babies and being sure they have someone to stand up for them because they cant speak for themselves. having a healthy baby is what is most important in the end is all i think they are trying to point out. if you paid 2000 for a baby and then another 10000 grand in medical issues and still lost that baby.....this really happens due to the greed of humans.
