KATIE'S CRITTERS SMALL ANIMAL RESCUE, Inc.'s   ANIMALS  ARE NOT TO BE BRED AT ALL!

They have all gone through too much already, and any more breeding is detramental to their health! Thank you for understanding and cooperation.

Also, thank you for considering adopting a rescue from Katie's Critters Small Animal Rescue, Inc.  rather than supporting breeders at a local pet store!
