What to look for in a breeder? Choosing just the right breeder for your new Elf kitten is a very important task and can be very confusing. There are several breeders out there that are working with another breeder, that claims to be the "only elf founder" of which she is not. There is a lot of information out there on a lot of different sites and it is important to be able to take all of this into consideration. The most important thing to do when searching for a breeder is to ask a lot of questions. All reputable Elf breeders will be more than happy to answer any and all questions about their cats and the care of their cats. Elf kittens are very people oriented cats and desire a lot of human attention. Which ever breeder you choose should spend a lot of time socializing their kittens and interacting with them in order to nurture this trait and help them become stable cats. Elf kittens have acquired the very affectionate personality of the Sphynx and the very playful, inquisitive nature of the American Curl. They want to help you with everything and it is important to give them plenty of toys to play with. Reputable Elf breeders sell their kittens with strict contracts regarding their care. We are very protective of this new breed and we will not allow just anyone to have one of our Elf babies. Any Elf kittens/cats being placed in a pet home should be spayed/neutered or sold on a spay/neuter contract. Reputable Elf breeders will not sell cats intact to people who are not truly committed to protecting this amazing breed. Most importantly whom ever you choose in a breeder should be someone you can easily work with and trust. Remember this relationship is one you will have for 15-20 years or as long as your little Elf kitten is still on this Earth. You definitely want that relationship to be a positive one. |
