What would satisfy your complaint?
I will be satisfied when Michelle stops breeding Bengals and selling FIP infected kittens. I also want the money that I paid for my kitten refunded as well as the money I spent at the vet before he died.
My friend and I each purchased a male Bengal kitten from Michelle at Wild on Spots in June. Within 2 months, my friend's kitten died from FIP. I spoke with Michelle over the phone a couple of times and caught her in several lies over the course of our 2 hour long phone conversation. She admitted to having a problem with FIP and told me that I needed to go ahead and have my kitten Isaac put down too. She said she'd replace both our kittens with other cats in her cattery. One, being one of her adult male show cats... Weird.
She then started acting confused as to who the father to our kittens really was. She said that maybe she was wrong about the father being "Sully" and maybe it was "Sam". She acted like she couldn't remember which male she put with the female at the time of breeding... Again weird. She seemed very nervous and it was evident that she'd been "exposed".
Well, it's been almost a year and this past Saturday, our Isaac died from FIP (of course). The vet confirmed this after an autopsy. I've contacted her via email and phone and haven't heard back from her. She still has kittens for sale at wildonspots.com. She's continuing to profit by her deceptive breeding practices. I've been informed by my vet that he has another client that lost their Bengal due to FIP (purchased from Michelle at Wild on Spots). I also found a complaint on the internet made back in April regarding someone who lost their Bengal to FIP purchased from Michelle at Wild on Spots.
