Sent a message about finding rag doll kittens online for $200 in 'Castle Hill, NSW'. I emailed 'Francine Atina' on Tradingpost.com.au to get more information about these kittens. She replied with this:
Hi There
Nice reading from you in regards of my Ragdoll kittens . I still
have available for adoption two kittens a boy and a girl .I call the
boy Miki and Winnie the girl .Miki is a Cream mink mitted and Winnie
a Bluepoint bicolor .These babies have been trained since they were a
kitten to never scratch on furniture because they were taught how to
use a proper scratching post. They have not been declawed. My babies
have not been spayed. They are strictly a house cat and have been
living in a smoke free and very quiet home.They are very friendly,
very gentle, very playful and well behaved because that is i raised
them and when you meet these yourself you will fall in love with them.
They aren't too demanding of attention. they’ll follow you around and
show an interest in what you’re doing .My babies get along with
everyone, including dogs and other cats and they adjust well to
multi-pet households. they enjoy playing fetch and are
willing to learn to walk on a leash, making them a great choice for
anyone who travels frequently and would like to bring a feline
companion along. They are very intelligent and used to some tricks
such as fetch and even to shake hands. My kittens are handled from
birth, monitored and given the attention needed for them to thrive.
They are used to their litter box The kittens are raised underfoot,
not kept in cages and are in constant human contact on a daily basis.
When my kittens leave
our home to go to yours, they're ready to be a loving member of your
family. They had their first vaccines at 7 weeks for distemper,
calicivirus, rhinotracheitis,at 10 weeks they had their 2 vaccines at
10 weeks for Feline Leukemia .They just received their 3rd vaccines.
Their parents are purebred Ragdoll and are registered. I
do give out my kittens for adoption to those who love and have a
great passion for this breed . I fell in love with this breed and
want others to learn about them.
Am wondering if its your first time to adopt a Ragdoll ?
Where exactly are you located ?
I am hoping that a pet-loving and caring person or family will accept
my babies into your home and make them part of your life. I am are
not selling them for money because for me that does not feel right, i
am genuinely care for them and all i want is for them to be truly
happy and well taken care of . You will get all their accessories such
as litter box, automatic cat water fountain, pet food storage
container that holds a large bag of pet food, grooming brushes, pet
shampoo, toys, and so much more!
So if you always wanted a new family member like my babies please
contact me today. Am located in Hobart, TAS. I live in a small
house and with little space for a litter box,I guess I want to have my
life bit easier now...no more cleaning up after fur balls and dealing
with cat hair...I know it sounds horrible. I also have to adjust my
schedule for them. Also, I travel a lot and will be away this summer
and have no one to care for them...in other
words, I feel that they might receive more love and attention from
someone else!I
can't travel for more than a month because of them...I can't bear to
leave them alone for more than that....and it is difficult for me to
find a sitter and i tried calling a cat adoption center but feel it
would be cruel to leave them caged in such a hectic cold setting. It
would be frightening for them to be left there!!! So i was told the
best way to give them out its through a cat adopting website
.
I do love them but for a while now, trying to maintain them has been
getting in the way... of my life...if that makes any sense. I know I
must sound like a terrible owner. I would feel better about giving
them up if I knew they were in a loving environment. I have been
struggling with this decision for some time now...I have given their
mother best home I could for 7 years and now I would like to pass the
kittens along to someone who would love them even more and possibly
give them a better home. They are extremely adorable, its going to be
easier for you to adopt them because of their beauty and because they
are so affectionate.
Attached to this mail are some pics .
Best regards .

She also sent me four photos of completely different kittens - brown one and a white one. While in the original advertisement there were two males for sale, one female and they were all white with dark coloured ears and tails.
Didn't match up and googled 'Francine cook' and found this website with people getting money stolen from buying a pet interstate. When i questioned her on why the ad said she lived in NSW and she emailed me saying she lived in Hobart she replied with 'I had to move due to treatments'. I do not believe this is true, there are plenty of great hospitals in NSW and i see no logic in this statement.
Please be careful of this!!
I thought I was talking to an innocent old lady, but turns out this could be a clever scammer. :/
