LOL. Make money at breeding? You're wrong. People see that pedigreed
kittens are sold for $400 or more and assume that breeders must be
making a profit. It's hard to understand just how expensive breeding is
without actually trying it.

If every shelter or rescue facility spayed/neutered their cats before
adoption, as the one I work with does, they would have far fewer to
euthanize.
