How could you get pedigrees for persian kittens?

This is a little confusing but basically, we have 2 chinchilla persians, both pedigree ';show'; cats, they're only young so can't be spayed and neutered yet.

My dad wants to breed them though to have 1 litter and then get them done.

He wants to keep all the kittens so theres no ';adding to all the unwanted animals etc'; they will be very much wanted and loved and chinchilla persians are rare here theres NO chance of getting good ones from a shelter etc.



Only problem is... the male is a breeding/show cat so is on the active register... but the female is a pet/show cat so on the in-active register.

If they have kittens together, the kittens will be pedigree but we couldnt get them registered as pedigree because the mum is in-active...

Is there any way to get round this problem?

Could we not pay somehow to change her register? the breeder we got her from won't do it.How could you get pedigrees for persian kittens?
Obviously the breeder sold you the female at a show alter price. On the registration form the breeder can mark ';not for breeding or not for show'; or both. You cannot get this changed as all clubs will not change what the breeder has marked. If you bought this cat as a show alter you should get her spayed. Not to mention, cats should be blood typed before breeding to make sure they are not type B.How could you get pedigrees for persian kittens?
Most cats if sold as a pet are required to be neutered and spayed. Since the breeder will not register the cat, you should not be breeding the cats.
No, you can't. She's not a show quality cat so she shouldn't be bred. What sort of breeder did you buy her from that sold you an unaltered cat? Did they test for PKD? Not likely - which means the possibility of a litter of PKD positive kittens that could die as early as four years old.



Get your cat spayed. With over TWELVE MILLION kittens and cats put to death at shelters every year - no, you shouldn't ';be able to do what you want'; with a cat you paid $500 for - especially when you clearly bought it from a backyard breeder.



And FYI - Chinchilla Persians are NOT rare. And that's entirely untrue that there's ';no chance of getting good ones from a shelter';. We had THREE go through the shelter I volunteer with just in the last six months! Persians are one of the breeds most often surrendered to shelters since people buy them on a whim not knowing how much work they require to keep up their coats.
If she was sold as a pet only then she needs to be spayed, no if ands or buts about it. Cats sold as pets only are not quality enough to be shown or bred.

If you are truly just going to keep the kittens for yourself, then why does it matter if they have a true pedigree or not?
