2673.1some info about the little guys please?VAXWRK::PETITThu Jul 13 1989 16:4611
    
    
    How much are you asking for them?
    Will they have blue eyes?  My mom has always wanted a cat with baby
    blues!  
    Are they purebred?  How's the blood line?
    
    Thanks,
    Sandy

    Sandy,
    
    They will all have very BIG blue eyes like there parents. Yes, they
    are purebreds. My kitty Elsa's, (Mother of the kittens) Mother is
    a Grand Champion Seal, so the blood line is excellent. The kittens
    all have very nice round pushed in faces. It is going to be hard
    to part with them. Cin is correct, they are all little girls. I
    just found out last night that you can tell by the coloring. But
    they are all girls for sure. Elsa has an extra long silky coat of
    hair which seams to be hard to find. So I'm sure the kittens will
    have the same beautiful hair.  
    
    I am asking $250 for them.

    Sandy, 
    
    Unless your very sure of the quality of the kittens, I do hope your
    going to sell them as pets and require them to be spayed.  $250.
    is a very good price for pet himalayans.

2673.6Quality??ARCHER::WELCHMon Jul 17 1989 08:3912
    
    Cin,
    
    I am not 100% sure about the quality of the kittens, but I know
    the mother, Elsa, is very good quality. From what I can tell the
    kittens are good quality too. They have real flat round faces with
    big blue eyes. I'm not an expert though. This is my first litter
    of kittens ever. I am selling them as pets, but not with a spay
    agreement. I just want them to have happy, loving homes. It is going
    to be hard enough to part with them.

    Please, if you are not sure of the quality of these kittens, and
    are selling them all as pets, please sell them with spay agreements.
    If they are not bettering the breed, then they should not be bred.
    
    Himilayans have really been hit hard by backyard breeders.  This
    brings the quality of the breed way down.  What purpose would be
    served by allowing all your kitten buyers to go out and have another
    litter, probably of more pet quality kittens?
    
    Responsible breeders sell all of their pet quality kittens with
    spay/neuter agreements.  If you aren't sure of their quality, ask
    a responsible breeder to help you evaluate your litter for you. In
    this way, you will be learning what to breed towards, and which
    kittens fall short of the mark and should be spayed and neutered.
