Ch. Omega Great Joy, given on the Sherkan sheet as CH Omega Dreat Joy

prefix Great Joy · Siberian · both eyes blue · No variant and no line attributed · also in its ancestry: Siberian, Altai or Barnaul unconfirmed

Under the variant field this directory proposes, this cat would read DBE 161p. A carrier of a variant nobody has sequenced, on no named line. This is the group bare 161 exists for. The proposal is set out in full here, and no registry issues this field today: it is computed from the record at each build and is not part of any registration.

More than one variant could be present in this cat

DBE, variant not named on the document and Siberian, Altai or Barnaul unconfirmed. MORE THAN ONE VARIANT COULD BE PRESENT IN THIS CAT: DBE, variant not named on the document, Siberian, Altai or Barnaul unconfirmed. It is not established that any of them is, and it is not established that two are. A dominant allele comes from a parent, and this cat's recorded ancestry carries an attribution of each. The attributions above it are on Bereginya Velikii Ohotnik, Blue Topaz Grilyazh, Blue Topaz Gusar, Blue Topaz Klukva, Blue Topaz Relax, Brusnika iz Odissei, Budur Tsarevna Barselit, CH Fluela Climberiada, Ch. WCF Bonifatsij iz Dikogo Lesa, Diran Climberiada, Finist Ural Gems, GEC Siberian Samotsvet Nafanya, Glasha Taiga Star, Granat Auric, IC Cleopatra Time to Win, Lazy Climberiada, Murmur's Chipounette de L'Or, Murmur's Trilly, Myrtus Barselit of Murmur's, Neo Argo Chatterie de Nice, Neva's Legend Ignat, Omega Chatterie de Nice, Pavel Chatterie de Nice, WCH (WCF) V*Grand Sineglaziy Angel, WCh (WCF) Milana Lion's Heart, Zakhar Taiga Star. A CAT HOLDING TWO IS A COMPOUND HETEROZYGOTE, which this survey records as the state associated with deaf and dead kittens, and NOTHING BUT A TEST DISTINGUISHES ONE FROM TWO.

Computed from the recorded parentage at every build, counting both the variants this survey adopts and the ones it records a source claiming and does not adopt. IT IS AN UPPER BOUND AND NOT A FINDING: it says what could be here, never what is.

What is flagged on this tree

1. ZAKHAR TAIGA STAR. A DOMINANT WHITE BLUE-EYED CAT IN THE ANCESTRY, AND WHY IT DOES NOT EXPLAIN THIS LINE. WCH (WCF) V*Grand Sineglaziy Angel, SIB w 61, stands in Omega Chatterie de Nice's third generation, and Sineglaziy is Russian for blue-eyed. IN A WHITE CAT A BLUE EYE CANNOT BE READ: it may be the white gene, it may be a variant, and inspection cannot separate them, WHICH IS WHY THE LINE IS TRACED. DOMINANT WHITE IS DOMINANT: a cat carrying W is a white cat. Omega is SIB n 03 23 and her son Pavel Chatterie de Nice is SIB n 09 24 61, AND NEITHER IS WHITE, so neither carries W, AND THE BLUE EYE IN THIS LINE CANNOT BE THE WHITE-CAT BLUE EYE COMING DOWN FROM HIM. A dominant gene cannot skip the coat it produces. WHAT REMAINS OPEN is that a cattery breeding deliberately for blue eyes may also have held a blue-eye factor NOT linked to W, which would pass to non-white descendants exactly as this one appears to have done. BOTH ARE RECORDED AND NEITHER IS ADOPTED
2. GLASHA TAIGA STAR. SHE STANDS TWICE IN PAVEL CHATTERIE DE NICE'S PEDIGREE AND SHE IS WHY ITS COEFFICIENT IS 12.5 PER CENT. Both his sire Finist Ural Gems and his dam Omega Chatterie de Nice are out of her, so she and her entire ancestry are doubled. THAT ANCESTRY CARRIES THE DOMINANT WHITE BLUE-EYED CAT V*GRAND SINEGLAZIY ANGEL, SIB w 61, who is her grandsire and who therefore appears twice in Pavel's four generations. SHE CARRIES NO EYE CODE HERSELF, SIB n 09 24
3. FINIST URAL GEMS. A HALF-BROTHER TO HALF-SISTER MATING, AND THE DOUBLED ANCESTOR IS THE BLUE-EYED ONE. Pavel Chatterie de Nice is out of FINIST URAL GEMS and OMEGA CHATTERIE DE NICE, AND BOTH ARE OUT OF GLASHA TAIGA STAR. His sire and his dam are half-siblings by the same dam, which is what the 12.5 per cent coefficient and the twenty-three unique ancestors of thirty record. GLASHA TAIGA STAR AND HER WHOLE ANCESTRY THEREFORE STAND TWICE IN HIS PEDIGREE, and that ancestry includes WCH (WCF) V*GRAND SINEGLAZIY ANGEL, SIB w 61, THE DOMINANT WHITE BLUE-EYED CAT, WHO APPEARS TWICE, once on each side. THE BREEDING IS WHAT A BREEDER DOES TO CONCENTRATE A TRAIT CARRIED BY A PARTICULAR ANCESTOR. It does not say which trait, and it does not make the white cat's blue eye heritable in a non-white descendant: dominant white is dominant and Pavel is not white, so he does not carry W. WHAT IT DOES SHOW IS THAT THE LINE WAS DOUBLED BACK ONTO THE SINEGLAZIY ANGEL DESCENT DELIBERATELY, and if that cattery held a blue-eye factor not linked to W, this is precisely the mating that would fix it
4. OMEGA CHATTERIE DE NICE. A DOMINANT WHITE BLUE-EYED CAT IN THE ANCESTRY, AND WHY IT DOES NOT EXPLAIN THIS LINE. WCH (WCF) V*Grand Sineglaziy Angel, SIB w 61, stands in Omega Chatterie de Nice's third generation, and Sineglaziy is Russian for blue-eyed. IN A WHITE CAT A BLUE EYE CANNOT BE READ: it may be the white gene, it may be a variant, and inspection cannot separate them, WHICH IS WHY THE LINE IS TRACED. DOMINANT WHITE IS DOMINANT: a cat carrying W is a white cat. Omega is SIB n 03 23 and her son Pavel Chatterie de Nice is SIB n 09 24 61, AND NEITHER IS WHITE, so neither carries W, AND THE BLUE EYE IN THIS LINE CANNOT BE THE WHITE-CAT BLUE EYE COMING DOWN FROM HIM. A dominant gene cannot skip the coat it produces. WHAT REMAINS OPEN is that a cattery breeding deliberately for blue eyes may also have held a blue-eye factor NOT linked to W, which would pass to non-white descendants exactly as this one appears to have done. BOTH ARE RECORDED AND NEITHER IS ADOPTED | HER OWN CODE DIFFERS BETWEEN SOURCES. This register holds her as SIB n 09 23 61 from earlier material and THE PAWPEDS SHEET GIVES SIB n 03 23, with a different white code and no 61. The register keeps the fuller reading and records the difference | THE BLUE TOPAZ LINE STANDS IN HER FOURTH GENERATION. CH Blue Topaz Grilyazh and W.Ch Blue Topaz Relax are both on her sire side and both are already in this register from the C3 chart, under the line 'Siberian, Altai or Barnaul unconfirmed'. THIS IS THE FIRST RECORDED PARENT LINK JOINING THAT MATERIAL TO THE CHATTERIE DE NICE LINE, and through her to the Great Joy cats and to Bonnie of Siberian Paws
5. OMEGA CHATTERIE DE NICE. Eye and coat, A DETERMINATION AND NOT A QUERY. This cat is blue-eyed in both eyes, carries a bicolour or locket white code, is not dominant white and is not colourpointed. THE CLASSIC WHITE SPOTTING GENE COVERS AN EYE WHERE THE WHITE HAPPENS TO FALL, WHICH GIVES AN ODD EYE AND NOT TWO BLUE ONES, so the coat does not account for this and a dominant blue eye is present in the line. IT IS NOT THE KIT ODD-EYE CASE. Its registry has entered no dominant eye code on it. WHICH VARIANT IS NOT DEDUCIBLE FROM A COAT CODE and none is adopted.
6. PAVEL CHATTERIE DE NICE. THE FIRST REGISTRY EYE CODE THIS SURVEY HAS SEEN ON HIM, CONFIRMED ON HIS OWN SHEET. He is SIB n 09 24 61 on three PawPeds pedigrees read 19 August 2026. He is white-spotted at 09, not dominant white and not colourpointed, and WHITE SPOTTING GIVES AN ODD EYE AND NOT TWO BLUE ONES, so his coat does not account for him | A HALF-BROTHER TO HALF-SISTER MATING, AND THE DOUBLED ANCESTOR IS THE BLUE-EYED ONE. Pavel Chatterie de Nice is out of FINIST URAL GEMS and OMEGA CHATTERIE DE NICE, AND BOTH ARE OUT OF GLASHA TAIGA STAR. His sire and his dam are half-siblings by the same dam, which is what the 12.5 per cent coefficient and the twenty-three unique ancestors of thirty record. GLASHA TAIGA STAR AND HER WHOLE ANCESTRY THEREFORE STAND TWICE IN HIS PEDIGREE, and that ancestry includes WCH (WCF) V*GRAND SINEGLAZIY ANGEL, SIB w 61, THE DOMINANT WHITE BLUE-EYED CAT, WHO APPEARS TWICE, once on each side. THE BREEDING IS WHAT A BREEDER DOES TO CONCENTRATE A TRAIT CARRIED BY A PARTICULAR ANCESTOR. It does not say which trait, and it does not make the white cat's blue eye heritable in a non-white descendant: dominant white is dominant and Pavel is not white, so he does not carry W. WHAT IT DOES SHOW IS THAT THE LINE WAS DOUBLED BACK ONTO THE SINEGLAZIY ANGEL DESCENT DELIBERATELY, and if that cattery held a blue-eye factor not linked to W, this is precisely the mating that would fix it | HE IS THE ROUTE BY WHICH A BLUE EYE LEAVES THIS CATTERY. Ch. Omega Great Joy, SIB n 09 22 61, is out of him and her daughter Fortuna Great Joy is SIB f 09 22 61; his son Aaron Coccola Siberiana carries the descent into Italy and to Bonnie of Siberian Paws in Germany. THREE COUNTRIES AND THREE PREFIXES FROM ONE ANIMAL | HE IS THE CAT A TEST WOULD BE WORTH MOST ON IN THE SIBERIAN MATERIAL, because his coat excludes the alternatives, his descent is documented in four complete generations, and everything downstream of him rests on what he actually carries
7. PAVEL CHATTERIE DE NICE. Eye and coat, A DETERMINATION AND NOT A QUERY. This cat is blue-eyed in both eyes, carries a bicolour or locket white code, is not dominant white and is not colourpointed. THE CLASSIC WHITE SPOTTING GENE COVERS AN EYE WHERE THE WHITE HAPPENS TO FALL, WHICH GIVES AN ODD EYE AND NOT TWO BLUE ONES, so the coat does not account for this and a dominant blue eye is present in the line. IT IS NOT THE KIT ODD-EYE CASE. Its registry has entered no dominant eye code on it. WHICH VARIANT IS NOT DEDUCIBLE FROM A COAT CODE and none is adopted.
8. CH. OMEGA GREAT JOY, GIVEN ON THE SHERKAN SHEET AS CH OMEGA DREAT JOY. THE BREEDER'S PAGE SETTLES A CONFLICT BETWEEN TWO REGISTRY SHEETS, AND IT SETTLES IT ONE WAY. PawPeds gives her SIB n 09 22 61 on her daughter Fortuna's pedigree and SIB n 09 22, with no 61, on her son Sherkan's, both read the same day. HER OWN BREEDER STATES SHE HAS BLUE EYES AND PUBLISHES A PHOTOGRAPH OF THEM. THE SHEET THAT OMITS THE 61 IS THEREFORE MISSING IT, and this is the clearest demonstration in the register that THE ABSENCE OF AN EYE CODE IS NOT EVIDENCE THAT A CAT IS NOT BLUE-EYED. Every count in this survey taken from eye codes is a floor for that reason | WHAT THIS DOES NOT SETTLE IS SHERKAN. He is out of the same two parents and carries no code on his own sheet, and no breeder page for him has been seen. HIS EYE REMAINS UNKNOWN | THE TWO SHEETS ALSO DISAGREE ON HER DAM, giving CH Zhasmin Siberian Samotsvet, SIB ns 03 22, on one and Zhamin Siberian Samotsvet, NEM n 03 21, on the other. THAT CONFLICT IS NOT SETTLED by anything read here, and Siberian against Neva Masquerade is the distinction that decides whether colourpoint is in this line at all
9. CH. OMEGA GREAT JOY, GIVEN ON THE SHERKAN SHEET AS CH OMEGA DREAT JOY. Eye and coat, A DETERMINATION AND NOT A QUERY. This cat is blue-eyed in both eyes, carries a bicolour or locket white code, is not dominant white and is not colourpointed. THE CLASSIC WHITE SPOTTING GENE COVERS AN EYE WHERE THE WHITE HAPPENS TO FALL, WHICH GIVES AN ODD EYE AND NOT TWO BLUE ONES, so the coat does not account for this and a dominant blue eye is present in the line. IT IS NOT THE KIT ODD-EYE CASE. Its registry has entered no dominant eye code on it. WHICH VARIANT IS NOT DEDUCIBLE FROM A COAT CODE and none is adopted.

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.
