Moggie crosses

[Valkirie]

We’d been thinking about getting a pair of kittens, and whilst looking online I have been surprised to see lots of pedigree x moggie crosses. I think this was surprising to me because I had expected that someone with a pedigree cat would typically choose to breed pedigree litters. Are advertised crosses likely to be genuine crosses, or do I need to assume that a good number advertised as a pedigree cross will actually be 100% moggie with only a resemblance to a named breed?

@Toddlerteaplease that cat looks so cross! I'm a cat lover, but now slightly wary after a biting incident, so I may be lacking in impartiality!

And every DLH of course simply must be part Maine Coon or Nowegian Forest Cat.

Picture of Basil - 100% purebred mog.

I would be asking myself why someone with a quality pedigree cat would want to produce litters of crossbred kittens instead of litters of purebred pedigrees.
