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 no recorded parent at all, which is a gap in the sources and not a statement that the cat had none.

No parent is recorded for this cat in the register, so no genealogy can be drawn. That is a gap in the sources, not a statement that the cat had none. Any offspring the register holds are listed below.

What is flagged

BRITISH GEMS MIA. A WHITE-SPOTTING CATTERY WITH ONE CAT THE WHITE DOES NOT EXPLAIN, AND IT IS THE CLEANEST COAT EXCLUSION IN THIS REGISTER. Twenty-eight animals of this prefix, NINE OF THEM CODED, AND EIGHT OF THE NINE CARRY 01 VAN OR 02 HARLEQUIN: Americo BSH c 01 63, Moris BSH d 01 63, New Pearl Abigail BSH q 01 63, Jace BSH o 02 63, Honey Opal Canelle BSH os 02 61, Chocchip BSH h 02 62, Lucy BSH o 02 62 and Mia BSH r 02 62. VAN AND HARLEQUIN ARE THE HIGHEST GRADES OF CLASSIC WHITE SPOTTING SHORT OF DOMINANT WHITE AND THEY PRODUCE BLUE AND ODD EYES OF THEMSELVES. The holder of this register has stated the rule: an odd-eyed bicolour is odd BY TRAIT AND NOT BY VARIANT. ALL EIGHT HAVE AN ORDINARY CAUSE AND NONE IS READ AS A VARIANT | BRITISH GEMS STITCH IS THE NINTH AND THE RULE CANNOT ACCOUNT FOR HIM. He is BSH d 69: SOLID LILAC, NO w, NO 01, 02, 03, 08 OR 09, AND NO 33 COLOURPOINT. There is no white on him for an eye to be covered by. HE IS ALSO THE ONLY ONE OF THE NINE CODED 69 RATHER THAN 61, 62 OR 63, so the registry itself has coded him differently from every white-spotted cat in the same cattery. THE CONTRAST IS INSIDE ONE PREFIX, ON ONE DOCUMENT, AND IT IS EXACTLY THE DISTINCTION THIS REGISTER WAS BUILT TO DRAW

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.

the PawPeds cattery listing for the British Gems prefix, supplied 25 August 2026. A REGISTRY-DERIVED LIST giving name, sex, EMS code, date of birth and a country pair, AND NO PARENTS AND NO PEDIGREE. TWENTY-EIGHT ANIMALS, of which NINE carry an eye code

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.
