[protected]@shaw.ca I have reserved a Siamese kitten as promised in our agreement, red point male. After, making the deposit she guaranteed me with the above mentioned cat and then all of the sudden the parent of the kitten died so she has to keep it? That's considered false advertisement. Furthermore, she demanded to pay the remaining balance for neutering...

I'm considering this post a case of "yellow journalism" against my cattery. I have not had anyone voice any complaint about their cat dying from HCM. I offer a 3 year warranty against any cat dying from a genetic cause, in writing. The most common case of HCM, is called familial HCM, which has a likely root cause from excessive inbreeding, which is not done...
