| I want to say thank you to all the good breeders Not quite the same as dogs but. i have had a to raise kittens for the past few weeks.the work i have to put into it has been astronomical. I would like to say just to prevent misunderstandings that i catch tame and re-home feral cats thear new owners have them fixed i caught the mom and did not know she was pregnant. i have had to help feed the kittens because she had 7 kittens and cant feed them. sometimes i even have to help poop them. not to mention the cost of cat food both dry and wet and formula for the babies it has been a lot of work and not a experience i want to repeat i now have the terrible job of trying to find kittens good homes and writing a contract so they are not feed as snake food or sold to a medical lab. its stressful and any possible notion i had in my mind about ever breeding any dog, well that is way gone it is very tempting to cut corners like buying less expensive cat food or just letting mom feed them them all and having less healthy kittens or not taking them to the vet for wellness checks. so once again thank you for doing the right thing it cant be easy and i don't think any of us realize how hard it is

Donating YT 11K Club Member | I agree. It's not the same but I've hand reared birds and had to handfeed them every 2 hours..its exhausting and can be expensive to buy the food. I give a lot of props to breeders. I also have 2 puppies and they are sooo energetic! lol I can't even imagine having more than 2 puppies at the same time.

| It's alot more work than people realize sometimes. And my vet breeds bengal cats and he says he doesn't know how I do with dogs as they are so much more work. But the pay is great - after all what is better than puppy kisses? |
