  • The American Curl
    The American Curl BREED SEMINAR TICA 2019 BY GRACE RUGA Introduction History and origins What influenced us as we wrote the American Curl Standard Defining the American Curl Core Identity Traits Understanding American Curl Ear Types This is what MORNING SICKNESS looks like with Warm Cat Treatment!! Shulamith’s first grandson, Master Luke Litter from first Curl to Curl breeding The American Curl was born! To assist us, in writing the Breed Standard for the American Curl, Jean introduced us to a book, called The Book of The Cat. In the early 1980’s this volume was considered the most accurate text available, presenting a short biography of each recognized breed with detailed drawings, some photos, a section on coat and color genetics, and basic cat care information. We were told in order to develop a breed we needed to choose a recognized breed similar in type and structure to the American Curl to use as our “outcross” breed. At the same time we were to write a Breed Standard for the American Curl describing our structural ideal and the traits that made the American Curl unique from all other breeds. Writing the American Curl Standard Choosing Terminology to reflect the breed identity and essence Here are a few of the pages from The Book of The Cat with visuals and/or vocabulary words we borrowed from a few of the breed’s descriptions in that volume. We highlighted terminology from the following breeds: -Turkish Angora - “Wedged head; body relatively slim. Tail long and bushy. Coat fine, long and silky -Somali – Long-haired Abyssinian.

  • Basic Cat Genetics
    1 Basic Cat Genetics Felis sylvestra All domestic cats are descended from a wild ancestor (probably either Felis silvestris or Felis lybica) a mackerel tabby patterned animal, and thus all domestic cats are of an underlying genetic tab by pattern. All cats have 19 pairs of chromosomes upon which there are many thousands of genes that govern the eventual shape, size, sex, colour, pattern and hair length of the individual animal. Over the generations a number of mutations have occurred a nd selective breeding has been used to isolate these to produce the various pedigree breeds we see today. 2 The mapping of the feline genome has indentified the genes that control coat, colour and pattern in cats along with those that control body size, shap e and conformation and those which control diseases and structural abnormalities. Genetics Gene: (from the Greek genos) is the hereditary factor transmitted by each parent to offspring which determines hereditary characteristics. Genetics: the scientif ic study of the heredity of individuals, especially of inherited characteristics. Genes: All animals have 20 - 25,000 genes; e very living being that is reproduced from two parents inherits characteristics equally from both of them. These characteristics are determined by genes, control mechanisms carried rather like beads on strings along two rod - like bodies, called chromosomes. For each particular trait or characteristic, there is a gene arranged in a particular order along the chromosome that controls the e xpression of that trait. Cells and Chromosomes: Living organisms are composed of cells. A typical cell contains a nucleus within which are DNA and RNA - the building blocks of life.

  • Selkirk Rex Cat Breeding Policy
    Selkirk Rex Cat Breeding Policy Guidelines for Healthy & Responsible Breeding 2 Forward This breeding policy has been written to accompany and supplement the Selkirk Rex Registration Policy and should be read in conjunction with that document. If there are any queries regarding either document, these should be referred to the Breed Advisory Committee delegates of the affiliated Selkirk Rex Cat Club. The aim of this breeding policy is to give advice and guidance to breeders of Selkirk Rex Cats, to ensure best practice prevails. The over-riding objective is to conserve and improve the SelkirkRex cat, working to meet all aspects of the Standard of Points, which describes the ideal for the breed. Breeders should learn how to gain the best out of their breeding plans by adding value into the Selkirk Rex and how to make decisions that can only better its on-going development. A balance should be sourced to balance the need for selective outcrossing to increase the gene pool and improve stamina and health with the need to breed Selkirk Rex with sufficient preceding generations of Selkirk to Selkirkmatings to produce consistent type. Co-operation between breeders, with the GCCF and internationally, will ensure that diverse breeding lines are maintained within the breed and the breeders have sufficient options to maintain low inbreeding coefficients.

  • International Society of Animal Professionals Newsletter June 2019
    INTERNATIONAL SOCIETY OF ANIMAL PROFESSIONALS NEWSLETTER JUNE 2019 Dear Members, In November this year ISAP will be 10 years old and it has certainly become well known in many countries. Our ambassadors work hard to spread the word and several foreign teaching establishments have joined us. There are 4800 members on our database but only about half of them are still active. Still, it is a big organisation of animal lovers. In May I was invited to Greece to welcome the graduating students of Kynagon Academy to ISAP. The g raduates are all trained to work as dog trainers and help with behaviour problems. A fantastic set up. While I was there my host family Dimosthenis Moumiadis and his wife Koula had two further foreign guests staying, one from Holland, Patricia, who had attended their course, flying from Holland to Greece every weekend for a year and a young lady, Yana, from Russia. We were truly an international crowd! Fortunately everybody spoke perfect English…! 1 In the late afternoon we had the graduation ceremony and this was followed in the evening by a delicious meal in a top restaurant. A beautiful day which I am sure the graduates will remember forever! But the best was yet to come…… One of the dogs Dimosthenis had bred recently had had puppies. The family was moving house and needed some peace and quite for the young mum and her puppies and so they moved into the Academy into a private kennel of luxury! And we were allowed to cuddle the little ones at certain times.
