Illegal trade in painful cat breeds continues to flourish despite breeding ban: 'Because people want them so badly'

A ban on keeping and trading Scottish Fold and Bambino cats is in the making. Breeding of the animals has been banned since 2014, keeping and trading should be over for good in 2026. Whether that will succeed is the question. The cats that are known for being cute remain popular and are sold for high prices by illegal breeders.
