Can you show me links to your cats titles, regional wins, or international wins on the TICA website or your title confirmations? Registration papers are NOT proof of show quality cats, which in folds means healthy.
This is your # 1 way to shut down a backyard breeder if you know what your are looking at. Registration papers are NOT proof of show quality cats. I could breed a deaf, 3 legged cat and give you registration papers. Registration papers just mean that both parents were purebred. If the parents had regional wins or international wins or titles, that would be included on it. We actually do NOT show our registration papers on our breeding cats. Since we have international breed winners, our cats in the same room with breeding registration paper and strangers is not a good thing. We will show you blue slips, which is what a breeder gives to you to register your kitten.
We DO show our titles certificates and you can see our cats scores on the TICA website under meet the cats.
Here’s a website that shows how championship titles and points work. http://www.pandecats.com/x/tica_titles.shtml
This helps you know what the points mean when you look up a cats show record. Any show quality cat can make QGC or SGC within 3-6 adult shows not counting the Annual award show or maxed out 250 cat shows such as the Portland shows. These bring out international contenders for the top 25 all breed cats in the world because they are looking for the high cat counts for finals worth over 200 points.
