In other words, this is a person from the upper class. Among cats, there is also such a division and is called "breed", as in all animals. And, it would seem, at first glance, purebred cats are luckier than others in life: the beauty of the breed, special care, nutrition, delight, and attention of others. They don't know the cold street and hunger. From birth under the protection of a person. Pedigree kittens find new owners faster and disperse to new homes, they are more readily dismantled ... But not everything is so cloudless in their fate. Yes, some pedigree kittens are born to conscientious professional breeders of the breed and then fall into very good caring hands. And the other part? The other part of the kittens, more often than not, also end up with new owners. But the “owners” very soon understand that a thoroughbred pet is a big financial cost for maintenance and treatment. After all, each breed has its character and disposition, its own set of diseases! And if the kitten was also purchased from an unscrupulous unprofessional breeder who made mistakes when breeding kittens, as a result of which, the animal began to mutate ... Then most often, having played enough with such a thoroughbred cat, they put him out the door! Cynical and cruel! Or they simply bring it to sleep at the veterinary clinic. But animals want to live! They are not guilty of anything! Having spent their childhood under the cozy care of a person, they do not learn to get food and defend themselves. They just don't know what danger in the street is. How can such a cat, who is not accustomed to surviving, survive, especially in our frosty Russia? Unfortunately, homeless animals do not all survive. Plus, diseases are superimposed here. In a series of paintings "Blue Blood," I have collected breeds that most often find themselves on the street or under the threat of euthanasia. This list was compiled based on observations from her volunteer activities. Sphinx Thai (Siamese) cat British cat Scottish fold cat Persian cat Maine Coon When painting, I used the technique of "grisaille" in shades of blue, symbolizing involvement in the breed ("Blue Blood"). Only the eyes I painted with the addition of a green tint. Because it is in the eyes that we can see the desire to live! Green is a symbol of life! With a series of miniature paintings, I want to draw people's attention to the fact that pedigree animals also want to live. They are not a toy! Be aware of your responsibility and all subsequent investment of resources. If you don’t pull, don’t take it! Do not break the fate of a thoroughbred kid. He cannot survive without a man! We and only we are people, responsible for those we have tamed! Do not indulge yourself with illusions. They won't survive! P.S. I love mongrel and purebred cats alike. And I think that everyone needs their person and home next to them.
