Kitten$$$$

[unwashed potato!]

About 15 years ago my mum brought 2 kittens when we were kids. She paid £16.

Having a look now online and they are £350 for the cheap ones. £1500 for what I assume must be tricky performing, beer bringing, gold pooping ones.

What happened? Has inflation caused this must have a price change? £350 seems like a lot to me just to purchase one. Since when did they start matching the prices of dogs, or are dogs now £900 for the cheap ones.

I find something deeply unpleasant about a £3k family fashion pet from an amateur breeder.

indeed. i will keep searching for the sensible priced options. i have no issue paying, but £100 already stops making sense to me. not a fan of helping encourage breeding for the sake of making $$$

you're just being a lot more picky with breeds/etc than your mother was.

Erm...
