We live in the middle of France and I travelled back to the UK (Norfolk) to collect two of the most stunning babes - they have the most wonderful temperaments and are just so loving. It's was so well worth the journey - and it was in the snow too!! The right kitten is out there just waiting for you :nod:

Puzzles thank you so much, and yeah it was a really horrid thing to do, I couldnt believe it myself. However, I have learnt and some things will be different for sure when I find a new baby that wants a loving forever home. You are right, travelling isnt a problem and your babies are lovely, even though all that snow tried to stop you !! lol I do hope the right baby is just around the corner, a wee prayer tonight ! x

So sorry Chris I'm not surprised your daughter had a few choice words to say. FelinoCoons is on fb too I'm thinking about getting my next kitten from her when I can convince hubby ;) don't think she has any just now but is expecting I think x

Chris, I am so sorry to hear about Dylan! I would not be happy either. I think when I put the down payment on Ginger I signed a contract at that time. If you had a contract with the breeder, would that be a breech of contract? I don't know legal stuff but... I think I would be a angry girl and seek some kind of retribution. Not to mention that I would not recommend that breeder to anyone ever and may say specifically not to use them ever. I think they need word of mouth to sell their kittens and this would be bad for business. Once again I am sad for you but there is a kitten just waiting to come home and be loved. Maybe a rescue?

Yeah Sarah can be the proverbial pit bull when she has her dander up !!! lol She has the tendency to use very long obscure words to leave people speechless !! My fault really, when she was little I used to teach her a word from the dictionary every day so that when she was older she had a good vocabulary !! lol Oh I am so glad that I dont have a hubby, they just dont understand sometimes do they !!! lol Thank you for your kind words and I just have a gut feeling there is a baby out there somewhere for me, hope I dont have to wait to long x

Thank you so much Donna and unfortunately we didnt have a contract ! I know, I know I can hear everyone now saying you silly person but I am a complete novice in the cat world and all your comments have taught me so much, you have no idea how stupid I feel right now, but I am armed with an angel on my right side that will make sure that I dont make silly stupid mistakes like this again. Sarah went down to see the 'breeder' (putting breeder in inverted comas because in the light of day she doesnt deserve that title) We got the full amount back, because Dylan was paid for in full, (another mistake). Word of mouth up here is going round, and her name is mud ! Sarah has been active !!! lol I know that somewhere there is a kitten for me, and in a way, it may be the one that was meant for me ! Things happen for a reason, and I feel now that this is just a learning curve which now will take me down the right path to find the right baby for me.

Thanks for posting Donna it is much appreciated x

I'm so sorry to hear about your frustration. Those little fur-balls get into our hearts before they get into our homes. I do think that things happen for a reason, though. I was disappointed time and again before I finally got my little boy, and when everything finally falls into place, you can't imagine it having been any different. X
