Breeding while working full time

Hi everyone. I'm hoping someone can help me with a question regarding breeding. Is it possible to work full time and still breed kittens? I've bred pet ferrets before and they were fine, but I'm a little unsure about kittens. Any ideas?

Yes, working full time and breeding cats works out. There may be a time when you need to take off of work and it's more work when you get home, but it is something I love to do.

I hold down a full time job and still am able to breed. I have a wonderful boss who knows when kittens are due and I might have to run home to check on them but then he understands that they come first. I usually don't make big plans when kittens are due but if I happen to be away judging a show, my husband is there. He actually will take a vacation day when I'm away to keep a watch on them (he works on Sundays and I usually don't come home until midnight Sunday nights). My boss also understands that when I come in tired and he knows kittens were due, I've been up all night and usually lets me leave a little early to go home to bed. He's very supportive and no he's not my husband although I see him more than I do my own husband. My boss is a really good friend also outside of work. My deal with him is -- I get no vacation but use whatever time I need to attend shows. I live out west and judge on the east so show weekends are busy. Again, it can be done although I usually don't have more then 2 litters a year. My mom also works a full time job and has been breeding for over 35 years. It can be done if you really want it to.

you can do anything you want to - I have a full time job and I am the president of an animal rescue organization. I also find time to attend cat shows, study to be a judge, and I am breeding (not a lot, but I will have two litters this year - one of munchkins and one of Abysinnians). So yes, it can be done, but good things always take time and work.
