The Challenge of Choosing a Breeder

According to a survey by the Japan Pet Food Association, the number of cats kept in Japan has reached 9.155 million (Source: 2023 National Dog and Cat Ownership Survey). When people decide they want to welcome a cat from a breeder, the "comparison" phase after finding multiple candidates becomes a significant hurdle.

With a wide range of factors to consider—such as rearing environment, health management systems, cat breeds handled, visitation policies, and after-sales support—it is difficult for first-time cat owners to know what criteria to use for their decision.

How the New Tool Works

The breeder comparison tool allows users to select up to three breeders of interest and compare key metrics side-by-side.

Comparison Items ・Breeder evaluation score (overall score out of 100) ・Rearing environment score ・Health management score (vaccinations, check-ups, genetic testing status) ・Socialization score (handover timing, ensuring contact opportunities) ・Information disclosure score (pedigree information, publication of parent cat photos) ・After-sales support details ・List of cat breeds handled ・Location area and availability for visits ・Availability of kittens currently seeking homes

Display Format In addition to a side-by-side comparison table, each score is visually represented using a radar chart. Items with significant score differences are highlighted, allowing users to identify key decision points at a glance.

Key Points for Choosing a Breeder

Under the Act on Welfare and Management of Animals, breeders are required to register as animal handling businesses. The comparison tool also displays the status of their registration number verification.

Being able to directly inspect parent cats and the rearing environment during a visit, as well as having access to consultation after the handover, are crucial elements for welcoming a cat with peace of mind.

If you are considering welcoming a cat, please try comparing breeder conditions using our new tool.
