All of my pets have always been adoptees or give aways.
I have had several purebred ( at least in looks ) Siamese and all, except one evil dog, that could not be corrected for his unstable personality issues have worked out well.
I would love a purebred Ragdoll cat but, I am not into keeping cats strictly indoors and, opted to adopt my two new cats from the shelter and good ol’ Craigslist. lol
I had one rescue horse years ago that had been starved and in heavy competition for food and she never outgrew those issues inspite of all she could eat and a stable home.
She was sweet as can be but when it came feeding time she was extremely aggressive and dangerous.
She HAD to be first and on more than one occasion she slammed through the gate into the barn and knocked me silly.
I had to let her in first and use a long whip to guide her into her stall or she would go nuts, bucking, kicking, lashing out with her teeth.
She was not safe and I had no choice but to rehome her to a more tolerant and experienced person.
All in all I am much more an advocate for adopting the already existing animals and keeping over breeding to a minimum.
