I have a very similar story to the other review here. No pedigree papers at all, was told her printer was out of ink and she would post them later. Not sterilised. Partly home vaccinated and microchipped. Had ringworm and gave it to my family within 2 weeks. (I was even given an ointment for his ears as the fur had come off them before I got him, which turned out to be the ringworm)

Purchased the kitten in June and was told he was 16 weeks old. Turns out he was from the same January litter as the previous post, about 20 weeks old. Sadly our cat had to be put down today due to FIP. (a 1 in 5000 disease)

Called the breeder and was told that I must have stressed the cat out or gave it poor quality food. (Couldn't be further from the truth) She told me she will not be breeding any more cats from now on and as such was in no position to compensate me at all.

Overall, 6 months of cat ownership of a beautiful Brittish Blue boy has caused my entire family a lot of heartbreak, infected my family with ringworm, and cost me in excess of $1500 in purchase price and vet fees for too many issues.

I would advise anyone to stay well away from this breeder.

Approximate cost: $800
