    PERSIAN LONGHAIR BREED ADVISORY COMMITTEE Breeding Policy SUPREME UK OG & IMP GR CH GEMKIN STARWIND OVERALL SUPREME EXHIBIT 2012 & 2013 CONTENTS Introduction Origins of the Breed Pattern Groups Genetic Make-up Breeding System Inbreeding Genetic Defects Grooming Introduction With the formation of a consolidated BAC for Persian Longhairs, the requirement to pro- duce a breeding policy has given the BAC the opportunity to review the Registration Poli- cies and Standards of Points for Persians. Some of the policies for the individual pattern groups have not been reviewed or revised for some years. During this time, the Fancy has altered considerably, with the number of Persians being shown dropping dramati- cally, with a consequent reduction in breeders and breeding cats but also, on the plus side, the ability to show longhairs from Exotic or Exotic/Persian breeding at championship level in the section. The aim of this breeding policy is to give advice and guidance to breeders to enable them to observe what is considered “best practice” in breeding Persian Longhairs. The aims of these amendments are to: open up the gene-pool enable breeders to outcross make it easier for breeders to import outcross bloodlines The over-riding factor should always be to maintain health, and preserve the unique qualities of this stunning breed, coat colour, length and texture, beautiful large, round eyes and sweet facial expression, which makes them sought after both for showing and as wonderful family pets. Origins of the Breed The breed’s name refers to Persia, the former name of Iran, where similar cats are found.

  • Gross Causes of Neonatal Mortality in Devon Rex and Persian Kittens By
    Gross Causes of Neonatal Mortality in Devon Rex and Persian Kittens by Holly Omoto A THESIS submitted to Oregon State University Honors College in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Animal Sciences (Honors Scholar) Presented May 16, 2019 Commencement June 2019 AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Holly Omoto for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Animal Sciences presented on May 16, 2019. Title: Gross Causes of Neonatal Mortality in Devon Rex and Persian Kittens. Abstract approved: _____________________________________________________ Michelle Kutzler Post-mortem examinations were performed on 29 deceased Persian kittens from 13 different litters, and 30 deceased Devon Rex kittens from 18 different litters in order to identify gross anatomical abnormalities. Fifteen kittens were stillborn (8 Devon Rex, 7 Persian), 17 kittens died during the first day of life (16 Devon Rex, 1 Persian), 14 kittens died later in the first week of life (5 Devon Rex, 9 Persian), and 13 kittens died during the second week of life (1 Devon Rex, 12 Persian). The average age at death excluding stillborn kittens was 5.2±4.7 days for both breeds, 1.8±2.0 days for Devon Rex kittens, and 8.5±4.2 days for Persian kittens. The most common sign reported by the cat breeders before death was dyspnea, with 12 kittens affected (11 Devon Rex, 1 Persian). Postmortem examination findings included pyothorax (9 Devon Rex kittens), pigmenturia (4 Devon Rex, 2 Persian kittens). It is estimated that at least 22.0% (13/59) of neonatal mortalities were due to infectious etiologies, at least 6.8% (4/59) were due to noninfectious etiologies, (n=7), and up to 71.2% (42/59) were classified as idiopathic.

  • Apparently There Is Great Pleasure in Maintaining an Aura of Mys- Tery Around the Beginnings of a Breed
    THE EXOTIC SHORTHAIR Rosemonde S. Peltz and Joan S. Uzee THE BEGINNINGS: CAUSE AND EFFECT Apparently there is great pleasure in maintaining an aura of mys- tery around the beginnings of a breed. How ironic it is that a breed with the fanciful name of Exotic Shorthair was created to turn sin- ners into saints and to provide baptism for the ill-begotten. Perhaps in years hence the beginnings of this breed will have its own legend; but for now the record should be kept straight. The background of the Exotic Shorthair begins in England and concerns not only the British Shorthair there, but also the silver shorthairs in this country. It had been a common practice in England to cross Persian with domestic cats to pro- duce a cat of Persian type with a short, thick, dense coat. The cats in England were of many colors, but the primary cross that occurred in the United States involved silver and the silver tabby pat- itish Blue. Cream Pensylva tern. The color silver, which results from St3:tip of Heritage (Imp.) Br. the chinchilla alleles reducing yellow J. Richards, Ow. D. Hansen & melanin faster than black, occurred first R. Peitz. as a mutation in the Persian cat. There- fore, most, if not all, silver shorthairs have resulted from a transfer of silver from longhair to shorthair. It is conceivable, of course, that chinchilla occurred as a separate mutation later in shorthairs, but this would be extremely difficult either to prove or disapprove and is extremely unlikely. Year Book, 1972 403 The practice of crossing Persian to Domestic Shorthair was quite prevalent in the 1950's and continues to this day.

  • Genetic Assignment of Domestic Cats to Breeds and Worldwide Random-Bred Populations
    doi: 10.1111/age.12008 Variation of cats under domestication: genetic assignment of domestic cats to breeds and worldwide random-bred populations J. D. Kurushima, M. J. Lipinski, B. Gandolfi, L. Froenicke, J. C. Grahn, R. A. Grahn and L. A. Lyons Department of Health & Reproduction, School of Veterinary Medicine, University of California – Davis, Davis, CA, 95616, USA. Summary Both cat breeders and the lay public have interests in the origins of their pets, not only in the genetic identity of the purebred individuals, but also in the historical origins of common household cats. The cat fancy is a relatively new institution with over 85% of its 40–50 breeds arising only in the past 75 years, primarily through selection on single-gene aesthetic traits. The short, yet intense cat breed history poses a significant challenge to the development of a genetic marker–based breed identification strategy. Using different breed assignment strategies and methods, 477 cats representing 29 fancy breeds were analysed with 38 short tandem repeats, 148 intergenic and five phenotypic single nucleotide polymorphisms. Results suggest the frequentist method of Paetkau (single nucleotide polymorphisms = 0.78, short tandem repeats = 0.88) surpasses the Bayesian method of Rannala and Mountain (single nucleotide polymorphisms = 0.56, short tandem repeats = 0.83) for accurate assignment of individuals to the correct breed. Additionally, a post-assignment verification step with the five phenotypic single nucleotide polymor- phisms accurately identified between 0.31 and 0.58 of the misassigned individuals raising the sensitivity of assignment with the frequentist method to 0.89 and 0.92 for single nucleotide polymorphisms and short tandem repeats respectively.

  • Animal Identification (Advanced)
    Animal Identification (Advanced) This Chapter Covers: ♦ Canine Identification ♦ Feline Identification ♦ Wildlife Identification Canine Identification You need to know dog breeds and groups, in addition to the information you learned in the basic course. The American Kennel Club currently recognizes 136 breeds of dogs and divides them into seven groups: ! Sporting Dog ! Hound ! Working Dog ! Terrier ! Toy ! Non-Sporting ! Herding Each group contains many breeds that have common features or a similar use. Zoonosis Control Division – 9/03 Animal Identification - 1 Animal Identification (Advanced) # Sporting Dogs The sporting dogs are placed into four basic categories: pointers, retrievers, setters, and spaniels. This group contains what we usually consider the hunting dogs. Pointers and setters are the breeds that "point" when hunting birds. Spaniels are generally smaller and are used to flush birds from cover. Retrievers recover downed birds after they have been shot. In general, these breeds are of good temperament and most make good family or companion animals. These dogs are very active and require exercise to stay in shape. Some of the more popular breeds in the sporting group are: ! American Cocker Spaniel ! Golden Retriever ! Irish Setter ! Labrador Retriever ! Pointer Other breeds in the sporting group are: * American Water Spaniel * Brittany Spaniel * Chesapeake Bay Retriever * Clumber Spaniel * Curly-Coated Retriever * English Cocker Spaniel * English Setter * English Springer Spaniel * Field Spaniel * Flat-Coated Retriever * German Shorthair Pointer * German Wirehair Pointer * Gordon Setter * Sussex Spaniel * Vizsla * Weimaraner * Welsh Springer Spaniel * Wirehaired Pointing Griffon Animal Identification - 2 Zoonosis Control Divison – 9/03 Animal Identification (Advanced) # Hounds The hound breeds are divided into two categories: scent and sight hounds.
