If you have become interested in buying a Norwegian Forest feline, then it means that you have probably done your fair share of research on this breed.

So, I fully support your idea of getting this cat.
In case you don’t know a lot about the size and the appearance of this feline, I suggest you read this: https://www.dimensions.com/element/norwegian-forest-cat
While I do support this decision of yours, I have a question to ask. Do you know where to get this cat yet? Have you thought about how and where to buy it? If not, then you definitely have a lot to think about and a lot of research to do. I know you might think that buying this animal won’t be difficult and that you will be able to find it rather quickly, but here is the thing. If you rush into making this purchase, you might end up getting the wrong pet.
How can that be possible, though? While I am sure that you would love any pet you get, what I am trying to say is this. Since you have decided to buy a Norwegian Forest, why not do it the right way and actually get the best, pure-bred Wegie that will be healthy and that will be your pet for a long time? In case you couldn’t have guessed it, “Wegie” is just another name for this specific breed and it is the one it usually goes by.
If you have done any research whatsoever by now, you have probably figured out that these felines weren’t that well known outside Norway up until somewhere around the end of the 20th century. This means that buying a pure-bred one can be even more difficult unless you are based in Norway. Yet, just because it is difficult, it most certainly isn’t impossible. You will, however, have to put some effort into it and take the right steps towards finding the perfect breeder. Go here to learn more about how to buy this feline.
In case this is your first time looking for a Wegie breeder, you will probably be confused about how and where to find the best one. As I have mentioned above, there are some important steps that you should take in order to succeed in doing this and finding both the right breeder and the perfect pet for you. There are also some significant factors to keep in mind when choosing your breeder, which is why I have decided to give you a few tips on how to go through this searching process. So, here we go.
Ask Other Owners
It might happen that you know a few people that already own this feline and if that is the case, then you are in luck. Basically, you can talk to those people and let them recommend you the breeder that they collaborated with, or a few more for that matter, since they have probably done their fair share of research already. I suppose that you understand how talking to these people can put you at a huge advantage, as they can give you some great recommendations, as well as tell you which breeders to stay away from.
Of course, you might not know anyone who owns these specific animals, but that shouldn’t discourage you. There are a lot of online communities and groups you can join that are filled with Wegie lovers and that can come quite in handy. You might learn about some great breeders in those groups and communities and if you do, make sure to remember their names or write them down.
Check Their Experience
When you find some seemingly great breeders, either by talking to other people, or with the help of the Internet, you should start doing more research about them. Just like you researched the Norwegian forest cat breed before you decided to get it, you will need to research the breeders before deciding whether to shop from them or not. Start by checking how experienced they are.
As I have already mentioned previously, Wegies are a pretty new breed in the world, as they have formerly been known in Norway only. This, however, doesn’t mean that you won’t be able to find experienced breeders. I suppose you understand why experience is important here, as you don’t want to end up getting the wrong feline by mistake. So, make sure to check the experience of the people you are thinking about working with before going any further.
Determine Reputation
There is something even more important than experience, though. I am talking about the reputation of specific breeders. Some might be known as not being very thoughtful towards the animals that they are raising and it’s never a good idea to shop from them. On the other hand, some might be rather caring and loving and those are the ones that you want to take into further consideration.
If you aren’t sure how you can check their reputation, let me give you a hint. Once again, the Internet will be your friend here, since people like sharing information about things like these. This means that you will manage to find some comments and reviews that people have written about specific breeders, which will definitely help you find the best one and finally take your Wegie home.
