Breeding Exotic to Persian by: Sioban
Can you breed a CFA Reg. Persian to a CFA Reg. Exotic? If so what would the kittens be registered as? Would the short coats be considered Exotics? and the long coats Persians? Are they able to be shown? Thank you, Sioban

Breeding… yes! by: Lorraine Shelton
All the Persian (and Himalayan) colors and divisions may be bred together and registered in CFA. When Exotics are bred with Persians, only the shorthaired offspring may be shown in CFA, the longhaired offspring may be registered and bred to Exotics, but not shown.
The only genetically possible colors from the crossing of various colors/divisions that can not be shown in CFA are chocolate and lilac smokes and silvers (chocolate and lilac smoke *calicos* may be shown, however), smoke/silver pointed Himalayans, and bicolor (with white spotting) Himalayans.
TICA accepts all genetically possible Persian, Himalayan, and Exotic colors for show (including the cinnamon/fawn series) and allows the longhaired offspring of Exotics to be shown as well. –Lorraine

Answer to registration question by: Anonymous
“As long as both sire and dam are CFA registered as Persian, their registered colors would not disqualify kittens from being registered.”
This comes from the horses mouth – thanks CFA…

Crossing Persian Tabby with Persian Bicolor by: Michael
Question: Can you breed a red tabby Persian with a Bicolor Persian and still be CFA Registerable?
Answer: The answer is YES to the above question. A Bicolor is a either a solid or Tabby color with white. Mating tabby with Bicolor will probably result in a Bicolor with a Tabby pattern.
The end result is still registrable with the CFA. Cats without white are also possible.
