I would be a cat breeder, carefully and methodically choosing which cats to breed to strengthen the line. I hope to only do 2 to 3 litters per year. I don't want it to be TOO big.
I won't be breeding Odin, though. He's a great specimen and due to his size would be in great demand. However, while we're in someone else's home, we don't need the spraying and other problems that arise from having a non-neutered male in the house.
We're hoping to find a house that has some room in the backyard where I could build several enclosures under the deck or somewhere else protected that I could keep the intact males and their breeding queens. And we'll probably dedicate one or two other rooms to kitten care and keeping some of the other cats separate. But mostly, we want them underfoot and being socialized.
I've always had cats and my husband loves them too. And now that there are litterboxes that do the dirty work for you (we have one that actually hooks up to the watersupply and drain! [
www.litterfree.com] ) it's a much easier job.
And the good news is that I would be one of only 3 breeders in our state. RagaMuffins are currently a small breed so it would probably be a pretty good business. Many of the kittens go for $700 or more. But that's not what I'd be in it for. Mostly because I love cats and I adore the breed. They're a lot of fun!
