Breeders are horrible. Get them from a shelter. When the shelters are empty we can talk about breeding.
Right but this is in the context of Bhutan, which has just achieved 100% sterilization.
Shelters will become very niche there, very quickly. Most of my local shelter's cats are kittens, given up because a cat wasn't sterilized. Give it a year, maximum, local shelters will close and it'll be regional shelters full of the oddballs with medical conditions and the like. While shelters will always have a place for rehoming those animals and dealing with the lost-but-not-found, those lost animals that become strays won't reproduce, and very shortly the only new cats will be from authorized breeders.
It's the role they should have. Not dealing in pedigrees or exotic cats, but just providing the demand for common cats, because shelters won't be able to meet demand, in Bhutan. Good for them.
