Becoming a CFA show exhibitor and breeder has been one of the most humbling experiences of my life. Anyone with previous breeding experience knows just how much time, effort, and sacrifice it takes… but stepping into the world of breeding and showing Persians has opened my eyes in ways I never imagined.
I was told many times that Persians are one of the hardest breeds to work with— and let me tell you, they weren’t lying. The past few months have been filled with trials and tribulations, sleepless nights, thousands of dollars invested, and countless hours dedicated every single day. No matter how much you prep, plan, and prepare, there are always hurdles you don’t expect.
Most recently, Tipsy delivered her babies just a couple of days early (still within a normal range). Thankfully, all arrived strong and healthy—except for one very tiny little girl. Born at only 49 grams, she is much smaller than her siblings and without a sucking reflex. We believe she may have been fertilized last, leaving her just a few days behind in development.
I am so grateful I invested in the full setup—incubator, humidifier, nebulizer, and even oxygen concentrator. I prayed I’d never need them, but they have already proven to be worth every single penny. Right now, we’re doing everything under the sun to give this little one a fighting chance.
We want to be realistic and transparent, so we know the likelihood of her making it is very slim- Whether she makes it or not, she is worthy of the most special name. She is the only female in her litter, a tiny cream princess who has already shown us resilience beyond her size. This video was just taken at 10:30am today after her tube feeding and “going potty” 🥹
👉 And if you are blessed to have a well-bred Persian from an incredible breeder, please reach out and say thank you. The amount of hard work, sleepless nights, and love that goes into keeping these very fragile babies alive is truly unimaginable.
Please help me find the perfect name for this little fighter—one that honors her spirit, her strength, and the love that surrounds her.
💕
