Definitely a personal thing with me. I’ve always been interested in genetics and certainly in small populations and genetics, which led me to a lot of the work I did with the endangered species and studbooks and things. I’d always been interested in studbooks, I’d always been interested in domestic animals, I’d bred a few dogs and showed dogs and things like that. I actually never was particularly interested in breeding domestic cats. I’d never even thought about it until I saw this program being started to breed Asian leopard cats to domestics. And I thought that was kind of interesting to me because there actually is, they’re a different genus even than domestic cats.
