Pedigree papers.


Having bought a Siberian kitten 3 weeks ago, we have yet to receive any registration papers from the breeder.
We are delighted with our new'lodger',but I can't help wondering is he the real Mccoy?
Is this delay acceptable from a recognised breeder?

Hi and warm welcome to Catsey!!

The GCCF who register the kittens can be quite slow in processing litter registrations. I brought 2 of my pedigree cats home without the 'pink slips' as the paperwork hadn't come back from the GCCF. It didn't take long before I got the paperwork through, so I wouldn't worry too much. Why don't you give the breeder a ring to find out what is happening??

Were you given a copy of the kitten's pedigree??

The breeder should have provided you with at least a 3 generation pedigree. I'd be inclined to give her a ring and ask for the pedigree to be forwarded to you and find out what's happening with the kitten registration...

He was born on the 5th of March 2007.He is now taking over the house!
We previously had a Persian Bluepoint for 16 years which is sadly missed.
