Cats have coexisted with humans through various ages and cultures, but only a few hundred years ago they 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 racial variation of cats is more limited. Unlike dogs, the variations in size and conformation of the different breeds are not very different from the cat.
What is a pedigree? Pedigree It simply means lineage. Cats with Pedigree (pedigree cat) is a cat whose genealogy is known to previous generations. This pedigree must be a written record (certificate).
Pure Persian cats can mate with a pure Siamese cat. Although the genealogy of both cats is clear, the resulting child cannot be expressed as a new breed (Persian/Siamese), as the resulting child has clear and consistent characteristics.
