Cats have lived with humans through different eras and cultures, but only a few hundred years were selected and mated with the aim of producing a particular breed with clear and defined genetics.

Compared to dogs that have evolved over time, with a variety of breeds, sizes, shapes, and characters, the breed variation is narrower. Unlike dogs, the variations in size and conformation of different breeds is not very different from the cat.

What is a pedigree? Pedigree simply means lineage. Pedigree cats (pedigree cat) is a cat whose pedigree is known to previous generations. This pedigree must be a written record (certified).

Pure Persian cats can be mated with a pure Siamese cat. Although both the genealogy of the cat is clear, the resulting child cannot be expressed as a new breed (Persian / Siamese) so that the resulting child has characteristics that are clear and consistent
