animal abuse by proxy of over breeding.

While I agree over-breeding of pets is a very messed up practice, they already exist in the here and now. Might as well be their friends and tell them they are cute since they are here.

they’re already here because breeders create a demand for them; I wouldn’t kick this cat out of the shelter, but ffs, there need to be consequences for this kind of shit somewhere or we’re going to see more animals suffering for their entire lives because someone thought ‘it looks cute’

I can hear you with certain breeds if it comes with health concerns. Like the French bulldog. But all pets are cute to their owners. What’s the problem if we find them cute and they suit what we consider cute? Like we feed them and take care of them. It’s far worse to treat em like crap. It’s a mutual benefit. They have a secure life with us.

The sphynx comes with health concerns as well. And discrimination from other cats which is less the breeder’s fault but can’t be fun.

do you really think cats like this happen by accident? hairless cats have a mutation that prevents them from growing a coat. you have to admit it’s a special kind of sick mind that breeds hairless cats in canada lol (where these breeds were started). they’re also more likely to have skin cancer issues and early life respiratory issues.

I look at it like pugs and frenchies - victims of animal abuse by breeders who don’t care about the actual quality of life the animal has, only about profiting on their sale.

If Benjamin Buttons was a cat…

I think that’s more like c/AAH material.
