How this cat is connected to the trait
NO RECORDED PARENT LINK JOINS THIS CAT TO A FOUNDER OR TO A TESTED ANIMAL. What the record rests on instead is the line recorded on it, Blue Eyed Maine Coons (Markiss), which is a source's attribution and not a descent this register can walk.

What is flagged on this tree
CELEBRITY. THE FOUNDER HIMSELF SPLIT A LITTER 68 AGAINST 69, AND THIS IS THE EARLIEST SPLIT IN THE REGISTER. BLUE RIDGE IOLA, XLH n 09 68, AND BLUE RIDGE IOMA, XLH n 09 69, ARE BOTH GIVEN 26 APRIL 2018 OUT OF NIKITA'L MARKISS AND CELEBRITY. One litter, one sire, one dam, and the registry wrote 68 on one kitten and 69 on the other. CELEBRITY IS MCO n WITH NO EYE CODE, and neither A'Mars nor Blue Ridge Ingrid above her carries one, nor does any of her four recorded great-grandparents. THE DAM CONTRIBUTES NOTHING AND THE SPLIT IS THE SIRE'S | THIS IS THE THIRD SPLIT LITTER DOCUMENTED IN THIS CATTERY AND THE OTHER TWO ARE BY HIS GRANDSON BLUE RIDGE URBAN, on 22 June 2020 and 24 October 2020. THE PATTERN IS PRESENT AT THE FOUNDER AND STILL PRESENT TWO GENERATIONS BELOW HIM. A SINGLE VARIANT SEGREGATING FROM ONE ANIMAL IS SUFFICIENT TO PRODUCE BOTH CODES, and no second source is available in any of the three matings | THEIR SHEETS ALSO SHOW WHY MARKISS CANNOT BE TRACED FURTHER: every cell above Nikita'l Seymour, Eliza, Roxi and March Nikita'l reads 'No information in the database'. NOTHING IN THIS MATERIAL HAS BEEN GENOTYPED
A flag is not an error. It marks a place where two sources say different things, or where an attribution cannot be made on the evidence held.

Maine Coon; black
The description held
MCO n, NO EYE CODE. SHE IS THE DAM OF THE 26 APRIL 2018 LITTER THAT SPLIT 68 AGAINST 69 BY NIKITA'L MARKISS. Her sire A'Mars is MCO n 09 22 and her dam Blue Ridge Ingrid MCO n 09, and neither carries an eye code, nor does any of her four recorded grandparents. SHE IS THE REASON THAT SPLIT IS ATTRIBUTED ENTIRELY TO THE SIRE
Note
The code and the description do not use the same words for this coat. Both are recorded and neither is reconciled to the other.

the PawPeds four-generation pedigrees for Blue Ridge Iola, XLH n 09 68, and Blue Ridge Ioma, XLH n 09 69, both 26 April 2018; Blue Ridge Lion Spirit, XLH ds 11 68, 17 March 2021; Blue Ridge Leopold Lionheart, XLH ns 09 22 68, 13 March 2021, RU/US; and Blue Ridge H'Lotus Prince, MCO ds 09 25 68 94, 3 March 2023, images supplied 25 August 2026. THE IOLA AND IOMA SHEETS RETURN TWENTY-TWO ANCESTORS OF THIRTY, three complete generations out of four, because the four cells above the Nikita'l founders read 'No information in the database'. The other three return thirty of thirty at 0.0 per cent; parentage read by OCR from the PawPeds pedigree for Blue Ridge Ynjir, screenshot e7e71d87 of 15 August 2026, in the pedigree harvest of 28 August 2026. THE IMAGE ITSELF HAS NOT BEEN READ BY EYE: it was uploaded to an earlier conversation and is not held here. The link is kept because the harvest's column rule supports it, that column holding exactly twice the entries of the one before it, and because the child carried no parent at all, so nothing is overwritten
This directory is a working aid compiled from published charts, registry documents and breeder statements. It is not a register and it has no standing of any kind. The grade attaches to the animal, not to the line: a cat whose ancestor was genotyped is line-traced, not genotyped.
