  • Felinotechnic Terms Glossary
    FELINOTECHNIC TERMS GLOSSARY Adelphogamy Brother to sister breeding. Admitted Is said of a character allowed by the standard, without being searched for as a goal in breed selection. Affix Designation added to the animal’s name, mentioning the cattery of origin. It can be put before the cat’s name (prefix) or after it (suffix). It is the cat’s “surname”, in some way. Agouti Name given to a hair showing alternation of light and dark zones. That character is controlled by a gene whose A allele, wild and dominant, reveals the tabby pattern present in all cats: in a non agouti cat (having two aa recessive alleles), the agouti hair zones which should have been light coloured become almost as dark as the stripes. The latter being no longer distinct, the cat is often abusively said “non tabby”. Albinism Total absence of pigment, due to mutations affecting the tyrosinase enzyme coding gene (C locus in felinotechny). All Breed (judge) Is said of a judge entitled to judge all breeds. Allele One among several forms of a gene that is at a given locus. Example: for the L locus, we know L (responsible for shorthair) and l (responsible for longhair or semi longhair) alleles. For B locus, we know B (black eumelanin), b (chocolate eumelanin) and bl (light brown eumelanin that gives the colour called cinnamon). Allelic series An allelic series gathers all the mutations of a gene. In the same series, the classification always starts with the dominant allele, then, in decreasing order of dominance, the other alleles. Example: C series which is in charge of colour distribution on the body; C is dominant over cb (Burmese), itself being dominant over cs (Siamese), itself dominant over ca (light blue eyed albino).

  • 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.
