    TRIGGER WARNING: All of our cats live in cages

    Trigger warning: This episode is not for the fragile. In today’s hot-button podcast episode, we’re talking about the accusation every serious pedigree cat breeder has heard at least once: “Your cats live in cages.” Let’s unpack that. We’re diving deep into: Cattery setups and housing standards Queen management Kitten safety protocols Why non-breeders misunderstand professional catteries If you breed Maine Coons, Persians, Bengals, Ragdolls — or any pedigree cat — you know the internet loves drama. But what does responsible cattery management actually look like? We’re breaking down: When and why cats may be safely confined How professional breeders prevent injury, stress, and accidental litters What enrichment looks like inside a well-run breeding program Why “cage” doesn’t mean what people think it means This episode is real talk for serious breeders who treat their cattery like a business — not a hobby. We’re done apologizing for doing things correctly. If you’re tired of online breeder shaming…If you’re building a structured, ethical, profitable breeding program…If you want mentorship from people who actually DO this at a high level…👉 Visit CatBreederSensei.com👉 Join the Sensei Collective Membership👉 Surround yourself with breeders who are building real programs — not fighting in Facebook comments.
