There’s a misconception that breeders don’t love their animals, but for those of us who breed with care, that couldn’t be further from the truth. We love these animals deeply. We care for them, protect them, and do everything we can to give them the best possible lives.
The hardest part of being a breeder isn’t the work or the time… it’s the choices we have to make. Parting with them is never easy, and it’s often the most heart-wrenching thing we’ll ever do. But we do it because we want them to have the best life possible, and sometimes that means letting go, even when it hurts.
When Aletheia was born, I fell in love with her instantly. Her sweet face, her playful spirit she felt like she was meant to be part of my family or a very close friend who I considered family. Ali had traits that I felt would better the breed and so I chose to place her as a breeding queen with
Angie and I always thought she’d stay with one of us, but life doesn’t always go as planned.
Unforeseen events have made it impossible for either of us to keep her, and after much heartache, we’ve made the difficult decision to find her a new forever family. Parting with Aletheia is the hardest thing I’ve ever had to do. She’s been with me since the beginning, and choosing to find her a new family is a sadness I can’t fully describe.
But… knowing who I placed her with gives me some peace. Angie and Craig have shown me how much they love her, and I know they’re doing everything they can to ensure she has the best future. Even with that comfort, it breaks my heart that I can’t bring her back home…
So now I am looking for a new family for Aletheia… a family with no dogs, a small number of cats.. where she can thrive in a calm, indoor-only environment. It’s going to be incredibly hard to find someone who loves her as much as Angie and Craig, but I’m confident we will find the right family for her.
This decision is for Aletheia’s best future, and I know she will be loved. If you think you could be the right fit for her, please reach out. We want her to be in the best hands possible, and I truly believe there’s a perfect family out there for her. 💕
