Seems the Blue Cats are already gone with questions about future supplies. Is anyone else finding the Blue Cat hard to find ?

I only have 31 adult bass in my 3.5 acre pond, they are the only predators and the forage base was set in motion fall of 2003, I'm hoping for a high survival rate. I would like to buy more...but they are running about $1.75 each. Would like to get Bruce C's price of .20 cents a head, but that's another story and what would I do with 1000 ? $\:\)$ Make skinny fish ? hahahah.
