(...) You are right about that. Actually Turkish Angora is a local breed which completely natural from the beginning (it had a long history) whereas, Persians are the products of selective breeding (Turkish Angora and Afghan Long Hair, AFAIK).

(...) Actually, we breed TAs and Abbies both. But I have no abbies on offer. (...) Yeah, TAs are the best of the long hairs, not that I'm biassed or anything.

Unless this somehow is going to turn into Turkish Angora being worth 15,000 2x4 bricks or a Long Hair that knocks a train from a Technic bridge I think we have reached the point where this is off topic. -Nick (a guy who really doesn't care for cats) (...)

The story, while not your business, is that I read all marketplace posts. If the cat is being trading for parts then fine. But I feel it is very inconsiderate, and probably against some usage policy (I am not motivated enough to go look for it), for (...) (24 years ago, 31-May-00, to lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade)
