Obviously, we feel sorry to hear of any lost pet. As some will remember, I know that feeling only too well and we hope puss comes home ASAP. The point was more of the nature of how these
acquired puss in the first place...
It's a illustration of the consumer, one-upmanship, impatient world we now live it, isn't it? If I was a
and I want something, I want something special that either no one else has or can afford. But rather than pay full whack to have a certified puss from a reputable breeder, I see an ad in the newspaper offering something cheaper but still very special sounding, no paperwork but still as good as the expensive variety - the neighbours won't know I got one a little bit cheaper! So I pay vast amounts of dosh for something exotic sounding and then sit back while all the neighbours envy me.
I found it hysterical that it's that easy to get a shmuck to part with lots of cash for a tabby because they obviously didn't Google 'Bengal Cat' before they coughed up the dough!
I am thinking of having an adoption drive on exotic, preselected Ebony Kittens.
