I have four dogs, three are purebred. Can you tell which one is a rescue? Bet you can't. I volunteer frequently and work for my humane society. We have 13 dogs right now, 7 are purebred. There are also lots of purebred dogs at our shelter.

Please quit playing the guilt card. Some of us have made mistakes, but we have learned and we are trying to educate people so they won't do the same. This thread has stayed informative if you exclude your own defensive, finger-pointing posts. We are not bashing you, we are trying to help you. Please calm down and really read these posts. What's done is done, your cats will be/have given birth and we can't change that. What we are trying to change is you ever having any more "oops" litters. If you want to go about breeding responsibly, then I and most other Pet Talkers will most certainly support you, but if you are not willing to spend thousands of dollars to show you have a top-notch cat/dog, then spay your animals and let them lead healthy lives.
