Neon-Cat Cattery Marian Gooding-breeder Devon Rex breeder Fort Worth Texas
We purchased a kitten from this breeder, and we had to put our kitten to sleep at 9 months of age because he had FIP. It's a fatal virus passed on genetically. We researched and found similar complaints from families on the complaintsboard website. We also discovered false advertising on the breeder's site specifically stating negative tests for the underlying condition which causes FIP. She states that her cats are in excellent condition and she does routine ultrasound testing on all of her breeding cats (she has 16 of them currently). If this was true it would cost a fortune for her. Ultrasound testing costs around $500. We know these are lies because we contacted the vet she works with, who conifrmed they have no medical records on her adult breeding cats. You may see her information on her website at neon-cat.com and read complaints from other families here-
(((REDACTED)))
Pleasedo careful research before choosing to buy a devon rex kitten from this breeder. She charges $900 for a kitten, which is less for a devon rex, but don't be fooled. I would insist on medical records for the adult cats, which I guarantee she will not have anything to provide. I wish we did this beforehand, it is sad to actually realize she does not care about these cats. She has inhumae practices, and if you notice from the complaintsboard she has a pattern of either ignoring families, blaming families or their vets. She will blame anyone else instead of taking responsibility for herself. She has been doing this for so many years and needs to be stopped.
