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, Topaz foundation (C6 and C11), which is a source's attribution and not a descent this register can walk; and 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

1. SILVA. THE CATTERY WRITES 61 ON THREE CONSECUTIVE GENERATIONS AND CALLS IT THE ALT GENE EACH TIME. The descent on its own published page runs SEYMOUR, black-silver-tabby, ns 23 61, 'ALT Gen, blaue Augen'; to NIKITAL DAISY, BRI F1, ns 61, 'ALT Gen, blaue Augen'; to AURORA SUPERQUEEN, BRI F2, bs 61, 'ALT Gen, blaue Augen'; to CUPCAKE CINNAMON SUPERQUEEN, BRL (F3), 'ODD EYED (DOMINANT)', chocolate smoke. THAT IS A BREEDER USING 61 FOR WHAT PAWPEDS WRITES 68, AND SAYING SO IN WORDS | WHAT IT SETTLES. This register has held the 61 against 68 difference as an unexplained inconsistency between sources, on Yoshiki Ermine Trace, on British Gems Alora and elsewhere. THE FROM SHAM PAGE SHOWS ONE CAUSE OF IT DIRECTLY: a cattery writing 61, the ordinary blue-eye code, on animals it states carry a named dominant variant. EVERY 61 IN THIS REGISTER ON A COAT WITHOUT WHITE IS THEREFORE A CANDIDATE 68, and the register's counts drawn from 68 and 69 alone understate | IT ALSO RESOLVES THE CUPCAKE CODE CONFLICT. His own PawPeds sheet gives BLH bs with NO eye code. The PawPeds cattery listing gives BSH bs 69. THE CATTERY'S OWN PAGE GIVES BRL, WHICH IS BRITISH LONGHAIR AND SO AGREES WITH THE SHEET ON BREED, AND 'ODD EYED (DOMINANT)', WHICH AGREES WITH THE LISTING ON THE EYE. Two of three on each point. The register adopts British Longhair and a dominant odd eye | AND IT FILLS A PEDIGREE PAWPEDS RETURNED EMPTY. Cupcake's own PawPeds sheet returned ZERO ancestors of thirty, every cell blank. THIS PAGE GIVES FOUR GENERATIONS. The Superqueen origin question is now answered as far as any document goes: THE LINE RUNS TO SEYMOUR THROUGH NIKITA'L DAISY AND AURORA SUPERQUEEN, AND IT STOPS AT SILVA, whose parents the cattery itself prints as '??????? @Mail ru' | THE F NUMBERS ARE A BREEDING PROGRAMME WRITTEN DOWN. F1 Daisy, F2 Aurora, F3 Cupcake. Each generation is bred back to an unrelated from Sham or Great Fate cat and the eye is kept. THAT IS DELIBERATE INTROGRESSION OF A VARIANT INTO A BREED, recorded by the breeder in the ordinary course of publishing a pedigree

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.

In the register

• Offspring recorded in this register; a cat may have others: Nikita'l Daisy

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.
