Hello - my apologies, I see that you are a buyer and not a breeder. I was momentarily confused with you posting links and thought you were advertising. The problem with cats - and dogs - with abnormally short legs, which do come about as a result of a genetic mutations as it says on the website - is that the forces applied to the bones by the muscles are abnormal, potentially resulting in arthritis and discomfort. Cats evolved to be cat-shaped for a reason and it is my belief that in general, the more fundamentally close to a normal cat-shape a cat is, the healthier its joints, heart, lungs / insert other body part affected by anatomical breed-related change here - will be. Therefore we do not particularly reccomnend these 'designer breed' cats.
