Teacup Persian Kittens

"Let's discuss Teacup kittens.
The origins of the much sought after "teacup" Persian.
First of all many folks are mislead by unethical breeders into believing that the Teacup Persian is an actual breed of cat. This is false there is no such thing as a Teacup Persian. The word Teacup is a term given to specific breeds of Persians known to be smaller in size than most other Persian cat breeds.
The known smaller Persian cat breeds are Silver Shaded, Golden Shaded and the White Doll Face Persian. Many so called Professional breeders have attached this term to their Cattery in hopes of charging exorbitant amounts of money by misleading their buyers into believing they are purchasing a breed of Persian that simply does not exist. What I mean when I say does not exist is because you cannot register any Persian cat as a teacup with the CFA ( cat fanciers association ).
While I do not begrudge anyone from making money and anyone who had ever bred Persian kittens will tell you it is a lot of work. Breeding any animal takes a certain amount of commitment, responsibility and sacrifice not to mention it cost money to breed on a professional level. So I do believe breeders deserve to make money from what they are doing. There is a huge difference however from breeders that love what they do and decided to make it their living and from those that are only in it for the money.
My issues are with those breeders out there that are specifically breeding Persians as a Teacup and scamming buyers into believing they are purchasing a rare exclusive breed of Persian, how they accomplish doing this is by mating a runt from one litter to a runt from another litter, which produces an unhealthy kitten with genetic defects and hereditary health issues. These kittens do not live a full life span as genetically unaltered Persian breeds and most buyers end up with heartbreak not to mention all the money spent at the Vet's.
Purchasing from these highly unethical breeders is in a sense condoning and endorsing their behavior. I hope that by educating buyers regarding the Teacup Persian that it helps you to avoid making a decision you will no doubt regret but also to stop breeder's that are taking advantage of buyers who are not Knowledgeable on this subject.
Breeder's riding the Teacup money train do not care about the breed of Persian they sell or their well being. There are many online articles regarding Teacup kittens so simply do not just take my word for it, educate yourself. As they say knowledge is power.
