References & acknowledgements 14 Breed Origins & History In the west the Korat takes its name from a northern area of Thailand, a remote location near the Burmese border. It’s believed blue cats may have had the evolutionary edge there as the coat colour blended with the granite rock. In its homeland it’s most usually called the Si-Sawat, though there are also the older names of Doklao and Maled. These derive from the poetic imagery of the Tamra Maew, Thailand’s treasured ‘Book of Cats’ now to be seen as the Smud Khoi of Cats in the National Museum of Bangkok. The Korat drawing and verse as it appears on the ancient manuscript (Smud Khoi) Naturally enough, it is how the cat looks (phenotype) that is described with the body colour being likened to a seed head, lemon grass flower, clouds and sea foam, but they are important as they are the reason for the Korat’s modern Thai name of Si-Sawat (grey cat - where si is colour and sawat a mingling of grey and light green). -

THE BIRMAN, RAGDOLL & ASSOCIATED BREEDS CLUB ALL BREEDS CHAMPIONSHIP SHOW (OPEN TO ALL MEMBERS OF ACF and CCCA Affiliated Bodies) SUNDAY 19th June 2016 John Frost Stadium, Cheong Park Cnr Eastfield & Bayswater Roads, Croydon Melways Ref: 50 G8 JUDGING PANEL Ring 1 - All Exhibits HEATHER ROBERTS ‐ TICA USA Dr. Heather Roberts is an American International All Breeds judge in TICA and serves on the TICA Genetics Committee. Although originally from Texas, she has lived in California for the last 15 years. Currently she is the Dean of Sciences and Math at a small college in northern California. She is married to Jeff Roberts, also an All Breeds judge in TICA. The name of their cattery “PuraVida” reflects their love for paradise in Costa Rica. Heather breeds Singapuras and European Burmese and finds the incredible intelligence of the Singapura and the laidback personality of the European Burmese to be a nice balance in her life. Their breeding program focuses on healthy cats with loving temperaments foremost. She has also shown Bengal, Cymric, Siberian, Maine Coon, Somali, Bombay, and companion cats. She has had the extreme pleasure of judging in Australia and New Zealand several times over recent years. She enjoys the countryside, the new friendships, and of course the fabulous quality of the cats. She has imported cats from Australia and New Zealand for use in her own breeding program, and has exported cats back to Australia in an effort to truly internationalize some gene pools. She hopes to someday import a lovely Burmilla for her and Jeff to enjoy and promote in TICA. -

There are several concerns on the possible negative effects on PPG including anaesthesia, surgery and complications. The aim of this study was to evaluate the safety of PPG. Microsoft excel was used for statistical analysis. The information about 6646 purebred kittens who had gone through PPG before 27 weeks of age was obtained from the online retrospective survey. Database included cats from the different breeds and –age groups when the surgery was performed, collected in 2019. -

Tyrosinase Mutations Associated with Siamese and Burmese Patterns in the Domestic Cat (Felis Catus)
doi:10.1111/j.1365-2052.2005.01253.x Tyrosinase mutations associated with Siamese and Burmese patterns in the domestic cat (Felis catus) L. A. Lyons, D. L. Imes, H. C. Rah and R. A. Grahn Department of Population Health and Reproduction, School of Veterinary Medicine, University of California, Davis, Davis, CA, USA Summary The Siamese cat has a highly recognized coat colour phenotype that expresses pigment at the extremities of the body, such as the ears, tail and paws. This temperature-sensitive colouration causes a ÔmaskÕ on the face and the phenotype is commonly referred to as ÔpointedÕ. Burmese is an allelic variant that is less temperature-sensitive, producing more pigment throughout the torso than Siamese. Tyrosinase (TYR) mutations have been sus- pected to cause these phenotypes because mutations in TYR are associated with similar phenotypes in other species. Linkage and synteny mapping in the cat has indirectly sup- ported TYR as the causative gene for these feline phenotypes. TYR mutations associated with Siamese and Burmese phenotypes are described herein. Over 200 cats were analysed, representing 12 breeds as well as randomly bred cats. The SNP associated with the Siamese phenotype is an exon 2 G > A transition changing glycine to arginine (G302R). The SNP associated with the Burmese phenotype is an exon 1 G > T transversion changing glycine to tryptophan (G227W). The G302R mutation segregated concordantly within a pedigree of Himalayan (pointed) Persians. All cats that had ÔpointedÕ or the Burmese coat colour phenotype were homozygous for the corresponding mutations, respectively, suggesting that these phenotypes are a result of the identified mutations or unidentified mutations that are in linkage disequilibrium. -

Article Info Abstract Article history: Feline infectious peritonitis (FIP) is a common disease with high mortality rates in cats that occurs Received 22 March 2018 as either an effusive or non-effusive form. Confirmation of FIP in clinical practice is difficult and Revised 7 June 2018 Accepted 13 June 2018 remains a challenge because there are no pathognomonic lesions or specific diagnostic indicators. Available online 31 August 2019 Thus, clinical features were investigated to evaluate the hematological and biochemical parameters between FIP and non-FIP cats. A sample of 50 blood donor cats and 50 effusive FIP cats presented at the Kasetsart University Veterinary Teaching Hospital were divided into non-FIP and FIP Keywords: Biochemical parameters, groups, respectively. -

JAPANESE BOBTAIL Re-Elected Breed Council Secretary: Marianne Clark – Beavercreek, Oregon Total Members: 34 Ballots Received: 23 1.

Current: PEDIGREE REQUIREMENTS (last date showing is current): Date: 5 generations Date: Date: Date: Proposed: PEDIGREE REQUIREMENTS (last date showing is current): Date: 5 generations Date: Date: 2/19 3 generations Date: RATIONALE: Since we allow registrations from the streets of Japan and the Kuriles this policy of requiring 5 generations doesn't make sense. Other associations do not allow registrations of the street cats. In reviewing other CFA breeds that allow imports from country of origin there are variations. For example, the Turkish Angora only requires a 3 generation pedigree from other associations. 3 generations will also assure that street cats registered by TICA on judges' approvals will have at least a 3 generation of registered JBTs. More importantly, we can encourage FIFe registered cats to register CFA. FIFe only produces 4 generation pedigrees, so currently a FIFe registered cat would require 2 pedigrees, one for each parent to make the 5 generations.
