Cik... can you make some research the different between Turkish Van n Angora....Its nice to know that Van like water but realistically how many people got bathtub or swimming pool at their house ? Tengok2 nanti dier shok berenang dalam kolah kat bilik mandi...... jangan marah yer .....
Well its nice to have a different kind of breed in Malaysia but as a main project I have a doubt about it. May be you can consider it as a minor project. You can make it successful but in term of pricing , you cant put it at higher price since it looks like other normal Persian X. I’m not saying that you should make money but to get a breeding stock is not cheap. Not every breeder that we get is got at breeding … you might get two or three breeder then only maybe one is good at breeding. Unless you get a proven queen.
If you don’t tell it was a Van than people might think that it just like a normal cat. As I said in our email… people like unique cat in term of size , looks , body , temperament , colours and coat…. only then they are willing to pay the price. I think Van is low on maintenance and easy to take care ( more research on this ).

hi burnian...

as for me, i simply love turkish angoras and turkish vans. they are simply adorable. as for their affinity with water. if the owner love the cats, he/she will do anything for it...

go for the breed you have passion for be patient, calm yourself and choose

never mind if you take months to take a decision

The most important is what you like instead of what other people like. There is potential for Van but you have to make a lot of efford to educate people about this breed... to us in the cat forum ni of cozlah no problem but to those makcik dan pakcik2 yang tak tau menau about cats sure akan memberi persepsi yang berbeza..... buat demonstrasi kucing tu boleh berenang... sure terperanjat dier orang.... then only it will become popular... its hard for this breed to be known by itself.

Its hard to set up something new but once it was established ... it will be smooth as silk... betul tak Kak Sha ??? ......
