When we have chosen our dream breed, it is time to find a cattery and a kitten that we would like, but we wonder if this kitten is in fact a purebred kitten. Currently, there are many unions, clubs, associations, that a person who is not informed does not know where such a kitty should be from.

Below is a little cheat sheet:

Purebred cat - a cat of a given breed with a 5-generation pedigree recognized all over the world.

Pedigree - a document confirming belonging to a given breed. It is a form of a 5-generation family tree. Only a recognized pedigree must have all ancestors with the indication of their color, pedigree number, name and kennel name as well as the logo of the organization.

Organizations - these are unions belonging to FIFe, WCF, TICA and CFA, which themselves belong to the world organization WCC (World Cat Congres) . Only such unions produce real pedigrees.
