WCF Pedigrees – Genetic and Show Continuity
A pedigree issued in the WCF system is not merely a lineage document but an official record documenting the continuity of breeding and titles across multiple generations.
Pedigrees contain:
– ancestors traceable across multiple generations,
– official titles of ancestors (e.g., Europa Champion, World Champion),
– club registration identifiers,
– continuity of breeding lines.
In the case of Saba Birman, pedigrees certify not only lineage but also multi-generational, partially home-bred bloodlines in which World Champion and Europa Champion ancestors are documented.
Show titles and genetic lines are not separate elements but appear in an interconnected system within WCF official documentation.
The genetic background and documented bloodlines can also be tracked in detail in a separate system.
The pedigree thus certifies:
– genetic continuity,
– the presence of show results spanning generations,
– and long-term professional recognition of breeding work.
The pedigrees shown are official WCF documents that illustrate the system’s operation as examples. The pedigrees shown mark champion titles in red, clearly showing that the bloodlines of young Saba females include two World Champions and multiple Europa Champions, along with numerous International Champion Saba cats.
The WCF institutional system – from club registries through show results to pedigrees – provides a unified framework for the international interpretation of Saba Birman cattery’s work.
The pedigree is thus not an administrative element but one of the foundational documents of Saba Birman cattery’s documented system.
If you’re considering purchasing a Birman cat, it’s worth considering not only the price but also the documented bloodline and system behind it.
In the case of Saba Birman, behind the pedigrees stands a multi-generational, internationally recognized bloodline that significantly determines the true value of the kittens.
