THE AMOUNT OF INBREEDING IN MY CATTERY

By studying pedigrees using this pedigree program available on the internet breeders are able to do trial matings. Select the stud they would like to use to help reduce the amount of inbreeding in their breeding program. If using that particular stud the inbreeding goes up try doing another test mating using a different stud. 

To go to the pedigree program click on the logo.

Log in and type in the name of your cat and the pedigree should be displayed. At the top of the pedigree click go to highlight INBREEDING and this will calculate the full amount of inbreeding for you.  You can always e mail me if you need help or cannot find the relevant information as I may be able to help you.

 

 

I have worked out the inbreeding co-efficient within my cattery to calculate the degree to which the ancestors are related. These ancient ancestors have still had a an effect on the inbreeding Co-efficient as I have moved through the generations. The table below shows this effect. It must however be born  in mind that the inbreeding comes from all the Persian, Colourpoint and Birman contributions.
