I agree Louie-Louie what can be done to stop all these nasty things & help the overbreeding of any animals.I still wonder if you want to breed anything be it pedigree or not if you had to register yourself & each animal had to be ID chipped or have some form of identification you would then be able to track to source & if you bought an animal that hadn't been ID registered then the new owner would be liable to a fine etc,I know it most probaly would be hard to set something workable up but the costs of unwanted pets must surely outweigh at the end of the day.I know a lot of breeders are having babes neutered before selling them & in some ways perhaps that is the way to go,selling rights can't be abused but those that don't care are still just going to carry on as normal & they are the problem,I also still can't quite come to terms with neutering at such an early age ,I along with my vet boss are still sitting on the fence over that one.It would be great if someone out there could come up with something , the "True" animal lovers/breeders would be right behind it I am sure & how true it is that the good breeders are not in it for the money I sure wouldn't want my breeder friends overheads especially when you end up with one baby & an out of hours cesarean to pay for....

i know what you mean.
It's like here... my mc will be desexed before I get. He's actually already been done at 12 weeks. Yet the tonkinese we picked up, hasn't been done because the vets here won't do them before 5 months, though clearly everything has dropped so he can certainly be done. But we can't get the papers until we prove he's been desexed.
but if we really wanted to become a backyard breeder we could easily without having papers.
Not that it's something we will do or even consider!

I know with Dalmatians you should wait untill till at least 15 months with boys as it can can be a major factor in them becomeing stone formers, & the girls should have had there 1st heat which is a real mess. I have usually waited untill they start spraying but Scutter (moggy) was lets say over zelos with everyone so was 3 months old & he has urinary problems so it could be the same with cats not sure. I would think better to wait as long as possible.
We are getting Louie done when he starts spraying he cant get out of the house except the back yard which is cat proofed. Lady cats though Im not sure but would think better to be spayed before going to a new home then no chance of them being used unless thats what they was agreed with the breeder.
I think the only thing breeders can do is have the new owner sign a kitten/puppy contract asking not to breed or at least contact the breeder before hand for advise, I know that this still wont stop some people but every little helps.
I dont think reporting this seller would do any good Maz most moggys get rehomed at 6 weeks or even younger as soon as they can feed by themselves which can lead to alot of heartbreak for the new owner
I could never be a breeder Id worry to much & probably have to have credit & crb checks done on any owner
