To the editor,
I was interested to read “Have you checked the children?” (August 17). The writer had noticed an ad for “exotic kittens” in the business personals section of another local paper and was concerned about child prostitution. They might be comforted to know there is a breed of cat called the Exotic Shorthair, often called the Exotic, and there are Exotic breeders in HRM. It’s likely the ad was innocent, just in the wrong part of the paper.
