Ok here's a question for breeders - if you would do this.
A person calls you up and wants one of your cat to show as a neuter/spay. They don't want a kitten, but want an older cat - say 8 months to 2 yrs old - old enough to put right into adult classes.
This person does NOT want to pay for the cat other then shipping and the cost of neuter/spay - so basically wants a show cat for free. They will show the cat at their expense.
Would you hand over one of your neutered/spayed cats to this person - for free - no other charges?
What would you do if you found out that this person not only got a free cat from you but turned around and when the cat was done showing or not winning any more, would give the cat away to someone else OR sell this cat to another?
BTW this person also shows very poor sportsmanship at the shows - when the cat doesn't win or is beat by another cat (same breed), they get mad and do not show the next day.
