This may be a stupid question but, what do you do with them once you get them? Do people buy them, and what do they do with them?
Congrats on your cat, that's an awesome bob.
They use them for garments. West side cats that are red like that are some of the poorest but are still saleable. several years ago my average on them was about $130. Now I would guess $35. Paler cats are worth much more but the price is down on everything. Not sure what a good ID cat will bring but probably 10 times the price of our west side cats. With WA cats the farther east you go the more valuable.
