Gemm

British Shorthair · line: Igor · both eyes blue · Published line, tested against the known variants and carrying none

Under the variant field this directory proposes, this cat would read DBE 161 x1p. A carrier of a variant nobody has sequenced, on a line this proposal gives a suffix to. 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.

How this cat is connected to the trait

1. Gemm, BRI ny 25 08 60
2. Kittystar Blue Sapphire, BRI n 24 03 60, the parent of Gemm
3. BG*Amur Dream, BRI n 01 60, the parent of Kittystar Blue Sapphire
4. Igor, BSH n 02 61, the sire of BG*Amur Dream. a founder of this survey; no variant has ever been identified in this line

That is 3 recorded parent links, and the animal at the end of it has never been tested, so the connection is a descent and not a result. Every step is a parent recorded in this register from a document; none of them is an assumption. The full genealogy is drawn below, and the sources for each animal are on its own page.

What is flagged on this tree

1. IGOR, GIVEN ON THE PAWPEDS PEDIGREE AS IGOR AZURE DREAM AND ON THE BREEDER CHARTS SIMPLY AS IGOR. THE FOUNDER OF THE LINE THE BREEDER CHARTS CALL IGOR, and the head of every chart headed 'line descended from Altai gene Igor'. HE IS NOT THE ALTAI GENE MALE HIMSELF: the charts draw a starred, unnamed animal above him, described as 'BSH x Altai registered as BSH?', and that animal is not entered here because no document names it. TWO COAT READINGS STAND ON HIM, BSH a from the chart crops and BSH n 02 61 from the registry pedigree, and neither is discarded; his son Amur Dream is BRI n 01, which is consistent with the second. Folded from igr-a01 and igr-b07 on 28 August 2026 by parentage: same mate, Onyx Magic Smile, and the same two offspring. S_FOLD_155
2. IGOR, GIVEN ON THE PAWPEDS PEDIGREE AS IGOR AZURE DREAM AND ON THE BREEDER CHARTS SIMPLY AS IGOR. Eye and coat, HELD APART FROM THE DIAGNOSTIC. This cat is blue-eyed in both eyes and is not dominant white and not colourpointed, but its white code is van or harlequin. VERY HIGH WHITE CAN PRODUCE BILATERAL BLUE ON ITS OWN, which a traditional bicolour cannot, so the coat is NOT excluded here and this cat is not counted in the diagnostic. The distinction matters most at the founders: it is where this register would otherwise overclaim.
3. ONYX MAGIC SMILE. ONE CAT ON FOUR RECORDS, AND THE SPLIT WAS HIDING A FULL-SISTER RELATIONSHIP. ONYX MAGIC SMILE APPEARED AS igr-a21, igs-19, igr-b09 AND sqx-92. Three of the four name the same parents in words, EC LORD CREME JONAS VOM WERNERWALD BY ICE LADY V PEO'S CAT, and the fourth records that Kittystar Brilliant's certificate gives her a different ancestry, WHICH IS ITSELF EVIDENCE AND IS KEPT | WHAT THE SPLIT COST. ALESTA AZURE DREAM hung on one copy and CHILLY AQUAMARINE AZURE DREAM on another, AND BOTH ARE OUT OF IGOR AZURE DREAM. THE TWO ARE FULL SISTERS OUT OF ONE MATING AND THE REGISTER COULD NOT SEE IT. Alesta is BSH a 09 with NO EYE CODE and is the dam of KOOPER SUPERQUEEN, 68. Chilly Aquamarine is BRI e 03 61, CODED, with three recorded offspring running on through the Azure Dream prefix. THE SUPERQUEEN 68 AND THE AZURE DREAM 61 SIT ON TWO FULL SISTERS OUT OF IGOR AZURE DREAM BY ONYX MAGIC SMILE | AND WHAT THAT MEANS FOR THE UNCODED SISTER. Alesta carries no eye code at all and her son is 68. Her full sister is coded 61 and 03, a bicolour, so the coat rule sets the sister aside as evidence. ALESTA HERSELF IS 09, WHICH IS ALSO THE EXCLUDED TIER. NEITHER SISTER CAN BE USED TO SHOW ANYTHING, AND BETWEEN THEM THEY STAND ABOVE A 68 AND A 61 | HOW THE MERGE WAS DONE. This register lost nine ALT by CEL crossings once before because a sweep moved the links POINTING AT a duplicate and left the duplicate's OWN PARENTS in place. HERE BOTH ENDS WERE MOVED: every child repointed to the canonical record and every duplicate stripped of its own parents, so no phantom branch survives. THE DUPLICATE RECORDS THEMSELVES ARE KEPT, because each is a separate document and this register audits by document

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.

EMS code

BRI ny 25 08 60

The code read out

British; black golden; ticked tabby; dominant blue eyes, written in the 60 series; NOT RECOGNISED BY THIS SURVEY: 08

The description held

A DOMINANT BLUE EYE CODE WRITTEN MID-CODE, 60, which is the convention the Azul charts and the ARBC certificates in this register use, and 03 bicolour white beside it. THIS ANIMAL STANDS ON BOTH SUPPLIED PEDIGREES, the Irven vom Wuerzburgerstern sheet and the Goodwin Daviway sheet, which is what joins those two lines to one another: his sire and dam are the same two animals the Irven sheet gives as the parents of Kittystar Garey, SO GEMM AND GAREY ARE FULL SIBLINGS OUT OF ONE MATING. That litter is where the Goodwin descent and the Wuerzburgerstern descent part. Their registration numbers are consecutive in one cattery's series for one year and are held privately as corroboration S_ICW_170 CORRECTED 29 AUGUST 2026 FROM A CODED REGISTRY SHEET. The pedigree this record was first entered from wrote colour in words; a World Cat Federation sheet supplied the same day gives the EMS index in a column of its own, and where the code here was built out of the words it has been replaced by the registry's own. S_WCF_172

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.

In the register

• Parents: Golden Soft's Yachont, Kittystar Blue Sapphire
• Offspring recorded in this register; a cat may have others: Leon, given on the pedigree without a prefix

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.
