What information will a Litter Announcement contain?
The Litter Announcement will list the posting date, breeder’s name, cattery name, location, breed, names and colors of parents, date of birth, and a short free-form section for information about the breed itself. It will link to the breeder’s FBRL listing for full contact and general cattery information. It will also list an expiration date. You can see a sample litter announcement here. (This will open in a separate window). The free form section is restricted to 600 characters. This doesn’t sound like a lot, but the paragraph above is 280 characters, so you will have about three times that amount to play with. The sample litter announcement’s About the Cattery section contains only 380 characters, so you actually have a lot to play with. I will not include prices in Litter Announcements. I do not list prices because I do not want to give people the impression that the FBRL sells cats or kittens directly. Prices are between you and the buyer.
