something to share
my friend went to a house(i forgot the exact location, maybe in subang) to get a new cat coz the vet has lost her cat
so, the house is like a kilang menghasilkan kucing FOR SALE .
she said kesian tgk. coz MOST OF THEM r squashed in one cage.. and the rare types of cats are neutered.. because they wanted to ensure nobody can ada anak of the rare cats and so that they can sell them at higher price!
this one cat(the one the vet wanted to give to them) was kept in a small cage where she cant even move and was put INSIDE THE TOILET!!!
when she brought back the cat, the cat was unable to move freely.. maybe because she was trapped in the small cage for so long.
memang tak guna org tue!!!
so, THE CONCLUSSION OF THE STORY IS.. DO NOT BUY CATS! ADOPT ONE!
First of all, BURN that vet clinic ahahhaah.. how can vet be so irresponsible on this.
Second, is your friend cat pretty or beautiful? is your friend cat neuter? if not, then it smell fishy, they might said lost, but maybe they hide it because that cat is beautiful, not neuter, very good for breeding
Third, vet are people who is educated, so do the doctors. I believe they should know what is a proper place and proper ways to breed cats. Its not matter on how many cats you have, but it is the matter of how well you taking care of all the cats, can you afford, can you give more space to the cats.
Fourth, it is not wrong to buy cats. But please please please check the cat properly. Beautiful cat does not mean perfect. Don't judge the cat by the look of it.
Long time ago, there's this person, not sure who they are, not sure if they are petshop or what. They are caught because breeding and abuse cats at the same time. Almost similar to your story, they breed the cat in small room, small cages. this story was publish in the newspaper long time ago. and if im not mistaken, dia kena saman for all this. Again the animal laws in malaysia is not as strong as USA.
Today, a friend call me up. Looking for cage.. budget is RM100. Then I reply back, that budget is so little. Buy the big one RM280 above, for 3 tier cage. Then i ask again, how many cat you want to put in the cage anyway. Guess what.. its 10 cats in a cage budget about RM100!!!!!!

CRAZY i shout! Try to squeeze 10 human being in a small room. what do you feel!
Having many cats is not wrong. Make sure you provide a good place for them. In my case, i have alot of cats. So to bring them to vet is trouble. What i do, I called the vet, ask the doctor and some stuff to come over to my house. The vet will arrive and check all my cats, all my house area. they even check every single area of my apartment. i got A+ for that
this is to make sure my home is free from disease, my cats are all healthy, and im free from germs.
Moral of the story.
For owner and cat lovers : If you cannot afford 10 cats, better find them a good home, rather than squeeze them in a cage. Check your budget before having cats, caring for a cat is not easy, unless you want to care for fun. Like what people said "asal boleh" or "setakat cukup syarat makan minum".
For people who breed cats : wheather it is pure breed or mix breed, if you want to breed, it is not wrong, because we do not have much laws on cat breeding. But please make sure you have the knowledge and again the budget. A small mistake you do in breeding is consider abuse!This post has been edited by elfreakz: Jul 8 2008, 05:20 PM
