What I sometimes wonder is: what do you want on the website of a breeder and what information do you like to receive when you have booked a kitten?

I have also been a kitten buyer and I am the type "The more information the better!". So I wanted to know how my kitten grew and liked to receive every week new pictures. I noticed that not every breeder takes the time for this and when you don’t ask for it you sometimes get no information at all.

Our first litter is now almost 11 weeks old and on our website, each kitten has its own page with his photo album, a weight table, movies, and if there will be shown with the kitten a show schedule / results table. Each week our kitten buyers receive a movie of their kitten (s) and photos.

I'm curious about your experience / needs!

After I had been to see the litter I got my 2 from, I was pretty sure which 1 wanted, but the breeder was very happy for me to go away to think it over, then go back a few days later for another look.. She gave loads of info on each kitten's personality & development..

I went for a second look, and that's when I decided Rebel was definately the kitten for me.. (I was holding him, the first time he purred, so that was it, decision made)

The breeder was great at keeping me updated & text me when he'd been wormed, how he was eating, playing etc...

I was keen to take my daughter over to see him too, and that was when we ended up choosing a second kitten...(God job I only have 1 child, or we'd have ended up with the whole litter)

We had to wait 5 weeks to bring them home, but once we had, the breeder was more than happy to answer any of my questions & ease my anxieties..

We received an info pack, a selection of toys, free insurance, food, and a bed...

The breeder also posted a video on her website of the litter playing, with each other, and humans which was lovely to see...

This is bringing back lots of memories now... Now I am dreaming of another little bengal baby.....

I tend to give MORE info than anyone asks for as Im so passionate about the kittens and eyes do tend to glaze! Embarassed

Mostly I am asked about litter training, food to feed them, what things to buy them, what to do when they get home etc!
