I guess I am the crazy one of the bunch as I put a deposit on a kitten before it was even born! Although I have purchased my BB from this breeder and I know the mom and dad are stunning! Plus I get the pick of the litter! If something went wrong with that litter and say the kittens didnt make it as this was the moms first litter then the deposit would be put to another kitten of my choice. I think you are doing very well trying to find a breeder in your area and doind what it takes to insure that you get a healthy well socialized kitten.
