Paige,
Is there a way I can send you a private message? I know speaking ill of breeders on the forum is frowned upon.

Hi Guys,
I was hoping to be posting some pictures but unfortunately have bad news instead. Our new family member was supposed to be coming home today at long last. Yesterday I was informed by the breeder that Mister Reavis and some of his littermates had been attacked/injured by his mother. He is not expected to survive. I am just devastated. Does this kind of thing happen?
I was offered a refund or an F3 from a litter that was just born. Any advice?
A
So, so sorry, sad.

Oh no, I am sooo sorry! I have never heard of something like this happening before, unless the mom had been separated from the kittens for an extended period of time and no longer recognized them as her offspring - then she might get territorial, but to the point of killing another kitten/cat? That's really extreme. I would be concerned about breeding that mom again - I wouldn't want that instinct passed down to any offspring!
What a tragic turn of events. I'm sorry.
OMG...I am SO very sorry for your loss :-( That is heartbreaking for the kitten to die as obviously you have been anticipating his arrival and the excitement and all...but the way the kitten died is beyond horrific.
NO, this is NOT normal. I have NEVER heard of a cat killing kittens this old when they are THEIR babies. As Patti says, if the mama cat had been taken away so long ago that she didn't recognize them as her babies, but still to the point of killing more than one of them? That's simply bizarre. And like Patti, I would be scheduling a spay for that cat immediately.
