    So confused on what i want now !!!!

    Having now seen three breeders it has completely turned what i want on its head !!!! Always said would never have a tortie and absolutely fell in love with two blue and white tortie girls that one of the breeders had. Just don't know what we want anymore so guess when the time is right , after hols, will just have to go see any kittens available and let them choose us instead.......

    Unfortunately there are too many colours to have one of each or else that would be my suggestion as they are all lovely. I fall in love every time I look at the pictures that are posted in the gallery of all our lovely babies

    If you particularly like one colour though it's worth waiting for the one you want unless you intend to get more of course in the future. I knew I wanted a cream and turned down a pure white(who was particularly cute), silver tabby and another which I can't remember for the life of me what colour it was before I found Simba. I was lucky too cos originally he was already sold but then the buyer pulled out. I nearly did go for the others cos lets face it they are all gorgeous but I had set my heart on the cream and I'm glad I waited now. There are so many beautiful colours though and since being part of this forum I keep saying every time I see a picture of another MC 'Oh that's a nice colour'

    I had my heart set on getting a blue/cream or brown tabby.
    We got to see a brown tabby and black smoke& white instead.
    I was fully sure we would be heading home with abrown tabby!
    I loved the brown tabby's colour but I prefered the personality of the black smoke
    We went for lunch and discussed the 2 kittens.
    My husband said which kitten would you be most sorry NOT to have picked and I thought the black smoke.

    So although it is wonderful to get the colour you want, do have an open mind when you go to look at the kitten as the personality usually wins out

    there's something to be said for limited choice isn't there...

    I wanted a black smoke, but could only have the silver tabby male, then I looked at lots of pictures and really liked the silver tabbies, so glad I got one.
    But having looked at more pics I'd love to get a tortie.... one day.

    I waited four years for the colour that I wanted from my breeder friend,I knew that I wanted a silver & white but mackerel tabby,she had several silver classic's in different litters but law of averages says eventually one would come along & it did..... I normally would have been there when the babes were born but that particular night I had been called back to work for an emergency so missed out,she phoned the next morning to say he had arrived,would have still brought him home if he had five legs at that point but Merlyn was well worth the time spent in anticipation.The fact that by then we had got three other MC's in the household did help a lot though !

    As a breeder, it is different for me I think. I know what colour kittens I would like to produce and therefore I do have to be more specific in how I choose new girls and boys. I also have to look at the type to make sure that even though they are the colour I would like that they also have perfect breed conformation too.

    I really like smokes and silvers so that does dictate how I pick and choose, although I love torties too.

    I am currently holding out for a black solid girl or a tortie smoke girl so we shall see...!
