Not liking to ask your family for money doesn't help your cat.
You cat should be the most important thing here, not your
feelings.

Kids dying of AIDS in Africa should be the most important thing
here. So why
don't you ask your family for money--for every cent they have--to
help these
kids?


That's not a rational argument.
The OP has taken responsibility for a pet cat and she is asking for
advice, the best advice she received is take her cat to the vet.
Saying she doesn't want to ask her family for money or she is too
proud were excuses not reasons.
She would get the same answer on a moderated cat forum .

Well Sherry, without knowing more definitively what constitutes a
BYB, I needed to ask. I visited a highly respected Bengal breeder
who ... by your reckless description ... would be a BYB too.

Highly-respected backyard breeder is an oxymoron.

Sherry

My my .... you're taking prescription "Bitter Pills". I SAID ... "a highly
respected Bengal breeder" .... who by YOUR description .... WOULD be a BYB.
"BYB" must be an incendiary label with a situational definition.

Damn, Alison, I have new respect for you. I thought for sure you
would yump
onto the "Burn Mary" train like you usually do.

I'm saving that for the next time-

I thought of this too, Miss Megan. Unfortunately, everyone
posting from Cat KB has this IP. It's in Cary, NC.

And Phillip, of course is just a plain moron.

Are you deliberately obtuse, or just stupid?
If your Bengal breeder COULD BE a BYB, FITS THE DEFINITION of a BYB,
then he/she is NOT a respected breeder.

Sherry's description of a BYB was "amateur, neglectful,
doing-it-for-the-money, irresponsible breeders". Why would the Bengal
breeder you mention, if they fit that description (as *you* stated) be
highly respected?

To be fair, they are both posting through CatKB. I checked a couple other
seemingly legit CatKB posts, and they all had that IP.
I had tried to KF a CatKB poster (the one that just posts MARY!!), and
ended
up KF'ing all of them.

I must say, fromwhat I have seen coming out of Cat KB,
that is probably no great loss, Kelly.
