Backyard breeders are people who breed cats without proper knowledge or ethical considerations. They only care about making a profit and pay no attention to genetic diseases, bloodlines, or preserving the breed. Their focus is to produce kittens quickly for fast sales, often leading to low-quality or unhealthy cats with no guarantees of well-being or breed standards.
The alarming fact is that kittens from these breeders are more likely to suffer from inherited health problems, and new owners are left to handle the consequences. This irresponsible practice not only damages the reputation of cat breeds but also harms the overall wellbeing of cats in the long term. Choosing a responsible breeder is the key to protecting your pet and preserving breed quality for the future.
