After talking to the breeder, it's very important to see the kitten at his home environment, because it will help determine whether this is the breed you want or not. There are several things you need to look for in this meeting: observe the kitten’s behavior
Pay attention whether the kitten has good temperament, and whether he is friendly or frightened. Ask the breeder if the kitten was raised in a cattery or at home. This may affect his behavior, and if he is not used to home environment, it’s possible he will have adaptation difficulties. Ask the breeder whether the kitten suffers from specific health problems
First of all, ask to see the kitten’s vaccinations certificate, and look for three vaccinations: “Feline Infectious Enteritis”, “cat flu” and “Feline Leukemia”. Other than that, ask if he has any specific health problems, especially if you want your kitten to participate in cat shows. Ask for grooming instructions
Ask the breeder what type of food the kitten needs to eat, how many times a day to feed him and the amount of food you should give him. Find out if the kitten has any special needs. Decide only when you feel ready
Take your time and don’t let the breeder rush you. Play with the kitten and see how he responds to your presence. If you need to think for a while, go home and come back again after a few days.
