No I am not breeding cats, rats actually lol! And yes, as everyone stated I only breed when there is a demand and the kittens have homes lined up before hand.

With this litter though, I was so not expecting my doe to be pregnant. So now I just have to deal with it, raise them to be lovers and lickers and find them great homes, which so far is being no problem. I am keeping the dumbo buck and also a PEW buck, to work towards my ultimate goal, which is a PEW dumbo rex. Since the mother is from a breeder, she is very healthy, but because I do not know her background the bucks that I am keeping from this litter will not be bred until they mature, at around 7 to 12 months of age. This way I can see whether they will have temperment problems after puberty. Just to be on the safe side.

I used to breed Bengal Cats yes. I bred them for the love of the breed, the same way I breed my rats. All kittens had homes lined up BEFORE Houdini was bred, and I still keep in contact with the families who took these kittens. And in my adoption agreement it STATES that if they should ever have to part with the animal it be returned to the breeder. Same with rats. We have VERY Strict breeding policies we follow. Of course I am no longer breeding Bengals, and all my cats are altered.

I also do rescue work and have raised many kittens/wildlife/exotics before. I rescue exotics all the time and have had everything from racoons and possums to Chausies. So I know how the unwanted thing is, I am in that boat all the time, but I think that responsible breeders who have homes beforehand should not be responsible for all those out there who ruin it for the good people. It's very sad. I can go on and on about this but I am done.
