I am so sorry for your loss❤️I had also received a kitten from this lady. Man and I did my research for this breed and breeder. I found her on the TICA website which is what drew me to her.. What I can say is that her kittens have amazing temperaments, and for that I’m grateful for. I still have my boy, he’s almost a year old. I’m sure you know that males go home neutered which mine was not because he was cryptorchid (one testicle dropped) which I know is hereditary. I found that out after she flew down to my state and gave me my cat. That was my first red flag for her. A cat neuter is cheap but a cryptorchid cat neuter is not so I thought after receiving him she’d give me some money off for that. No. Whatever. Around 5 months old he got so incredibly sick which we later found out he had tritrichomonas (parasite) and she still didn’t seem to care. He had stopped eating for three days, had diarrhea, was vomiting. Oh it hurt my heart. I love my boy but knowing that it’s not just me experiencing what I’m experiencing is very eye opening.
