Kitty pricing!

[Oselkhandro Resident]

These comments have all been very helpful to me. I am one of those new-to-KittyCatS folks who played with a lot of different furs, eyes, etc just to see what I would like. Whenever I would think I was ready to settle down into a "line", I would see some other fur or eyes that I loved. End result? An overflowing cattery (with a lot of old traits that are beautiful but not "hot" at the moment), and a huge food bill. But I love them all, and every new kitten is a bit of a thrill. I suppose I will need to cull the herd soon, and I suppose I will do it at loss leader prices, just to see them get homes. The marketing truth seems to be that kittens without new, trendy traits will not command a price that recoups one's investment. The market is just too saturated. For some people, it is more about housekeeping than it is about profit making. Breeding kitties is great fun, and many combinations can be beautiful. So, I do not want to feel driven to only breed the new traits. I just bred a pair of Russian Whites with Gerbera Purple eyes...OMG...the kitten is such a pretty kitty! Old traits, yes, but sooo gorgeous! I salute the people who will sell pretty kitties at good entry-level prices so that we new breeders can experience all the varieties of kitties..what fun it is!!! Thanks to all of you.
