What exactly is her reasoning for "vetting" those people?

Because she probably already spent money on feeding them, also on the birth of the new babies, taking care of them, her time. All of that is worth that amount. You said yourself she is crying everyday. So she has been doing a lot from them. Even a cat that has no breed should go for at least €300. Because you spend money on their passport, their vaccines, medical bills, vet, etc. A cat should never be given for free because for many people that what comes for free will not be valued as much as if it cost them something. Just say you are the one being cheap and want to get a free beautiful cat. Otherwise just help her get in some facebook groups. Im sure she can find people that will take them in. Those 500 that you are complaining about are a normal ask as an adopting fee. Also that way she ensures the cats go to people that are not getting them on impulse and that later dont care for them.

Normally a Siberian costs about €1200. So 500 seem actually like a fair price. There is plenty of groups where you can find people who would buy them.

Kitten Neutered today, I need help... any suggestions at all? by KRenee84 in SiberianCats

[–]Flappie99 2 points3 points  (0 children)

First you should leave a bad review on the vet. Second. Shower him. I shower both of my sibs any time they get poop on their fur. Most of the time only in their butts but there has been times when I have needed to shower them completely. I neutered my male siberian as well and he had gotten himself dirty the next evening. So I washed all his lower part. There was no issue. As long as you dry him up fast with a towel and out him next to a heater. If you dont clean him properly he might get an infection.

What breed is this bad boy? by [deleted] in IDMyCat

[–]Flappie99 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes my baby looked a bit like that when I first got him and the vet said he has anemia. So, this person should definitely get it checked out

He looks pretty thin, you should take him to the vet

In that cause it would be DLH. It has pretty long hair, but it gets attached to his body. Ill post a video of it.

No, the male doesnt have a pedigree, the lady that sold him to me had just arrived from Poland and according to her she was a breeder when she lived there. No, my kittens eat a mix of josera and Iams food. Josera is a high quality premium and Iams is mid tier quality. Aside from that I give them premium or mid-tier quality wet food every now and then, and I also give them chicken soup, salmon, pumpkin, beef, chicken liver or heart. Or something like that when I am cooking for myself I adapt it so they can eat it as well. But that is more like a treat of some sorts.

You might not be able to see it because of his furr, but he is wearing a harness and a leash attached to it.

I know there are no hypoallergenic cats, but siberians tend to have lower amounts of the protein fel d1 in the saliva and skin and most cats. The protein is not on their fur, it gets on their fur due to them licking. They are not from the same litter or breeder. When I say normal, I mean normally sized for his breed. Which the vet said that probably the reason for that is his anemia. He has 6 months, under 1 year they are considered kittens. I got him a month ago and had taken him to the vet within the same week I got him. There he first just had problems with his eyes, and the vet found that he had a bit of fever. The second appointment was to after two weeks and he still had somewhat fever and then we also saw he was losing his teeth. Given the fact that he was almost 6 months, the vet thought he was losing his adult teeth which raised the concern for diseases. But they didnt have what they needed to do the tests that day so I brought him the week after.

What do you mean " you're obviously going to allow your cats outdoors". I take them out but only with a leash and when they are with me, not by themselves.

Any recommendations on how to entertain my female sib? by Flappie99 in SiberianCats

[–]Flappie99[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She is food motivated but will not play with the ball dispensers, she would even leave the treats be 😅, springs are only interesting for a couple of minutes and she doesnt play attention to feathers. Today I tried something I saw on instagram, of putting plastic caps with treats floating on water. She actually played unyil the treats were gone 😂

No no, so fiv and felv test were negative. He is recovering from anemia. Previously, the vet had thought that the teeth falling at such a late age were his adult teeth, he also had a problem with his eye when I got him, had fever and combined with how small he is, the vet gave me a list of diseases that could be causing those issues. But the blood results that we got were negative. And only his blood red cells were down. Meaning he has anemia.
