No recorded parent link joins this cat to a founder or to a tested animal. What the record rests on instead is the line recorded on it, Igor, which is a source's attribution and not a descent this register can walk.

What the pedigree implies
Possible carrier by descent. the Igor line, PAX3, allele not published, through Fantastic Blue X-TRA Cool of Golden Flame, King Rainbow Cat City of MaxelPoint, Wesley Maxelpoint; the Nadeya line, DBE-NAD, though no traced descent from the genotyped founder reaches this cat, through Antony, Beauty Anak Dari Bella, CH Artos von Quintana
This is computed from the recorded parentage each time this site is built and is not typed into the register. It is a deduction from the trait being dominant, not a statement by any source, and it is not the same thing as the record's own status field. Only a laboratory settles it for an individual. The full list is on latent lines.
What is flagged on this tree
Barby vom Wuerzburgerstern. Line. She is listed under the Azul and Igor line and her own pedigree does not support it. Four complete generations, thirty ancestors of thirty possible, carry no eye code anywhere and no cat of the Azul or Igor lines. Her ancestry is Russian and Moldovan golden and colourpoint breeding. The survey does not remove the line, because the listing may rest on a source this register does not hold, and records that the sheet does not carry it
Barby vom Wuerzburgerstern. Held back from the line reconciliation of 31 AUGUST 2026, for a ruling. By source she belongs with the pedigree ancestry pulled off the PawPeds sheets, every one of which carries no eye code. She is the one exception: her status is 'blue' and her code, BSH ny 12, carries no eye figure to support it. Moving her with the others would quietly demote a blue cat on a rule about codes she does not have. Either the status is wrong or the code is incomplete, and the survey does not choose. S_LINE_RECON
Barby vom Wuerzburgerstern. RULED 31 AUGUST 2026. The blue eye on this record has no source behind it and the status is withdrawn. Her record carried status 'blue' and eyes 'blue'. Her ONLY cited source is a PawPeds pedigree, and PawPeds does not carry eye colour; the record's own earlier flag says the sheet 'carries no eye code anywhere'. Her code, BSH ny 12, is black golden shell and holds no eye figure. Her phenotype note was EMPTY. So the register asserted a blue eye while its single source said nothing about eyes, and nothing else on the record supplied it. Status moved to 'unknown', which is what the vocabulary means: the source records no eye colour. The eyes field is cleared for the same reason, because it holds the source's words and no source said this. She links to no variant either. Ninety-one cats stand in her recorded ancestry, four complete generations, thirty of thirty on the sheet. TWO carry an eye code and both are 64, green. Not one carries a white figure. No cat of the Azul or the Igor material appears anywhere in it. And pointing would not explain her even if the eye were evidenced. Her dam, Wilma vom Wuerzburgerstern, is BSH ny 25 33 and therefore pointed, so Barby is an obligate colourpoint carrier; colourpoint runs on the sire's side too, nine of his fifty-nine recorded ancestors against fifteen of the dam's thirty. But a carrier is not blue-eyed. Colourpoint pales an iris only where the cat is homozygous, and such a cat is pointed and is coded 33. Her code carries no 33. Her attachment to this material is by mating and not by blood. She was put to Christian Solomiya, BSH ny 11 61, who does descend from Igor, and their daughter Karina vom Wuerzburgerstern, BSH ny 11 61, takes her blue eye down the sire's side. Barby contributes the mating and nothing traceable. And the cattery itself dates its programme after her. Its post of 28 September 2023 is headed 'Our first babys with a dominant gene for blue eyes'. That is the breeder saying, in writing and unprompted, that the blue eye arrived in this cattery in september 2023. Barby stands two generations above the kittens posted in October 2024 and is therefore older than the programme she was filed into. So not only is there no source for her blue eye, the cattery's own account puts her before the first blue-eyed litter it bred. Every Wuerzburgerstern cat born before 28 September 2023 falls under the same point and should be read the same way. What would restore the status. The cattery posts its blue-eyed cats publicly with the code written out, so a source could still exist: the posts give a male ny 11 08 61 born 5 May 2024, a male ny 11 61 born 15 July 2024, and Laurina and Lolita in October 2024. None of them is Barby, and no photograph of Barby has been supplied to this survey. If a post, photograph or registration for her turns up giving an eye colour, the status goes back and this flag comes off. The survey is not saying her eyes are not blue. It is saying nothing it holds says they are, and the cattery's own dating says they should not be. Four other records have the same fault and were found by the same test, a blue or odd status with no eye code, no photograph, and a PawPeds sheet as the only source: c16-09, c16-13, igs-03 and mco-06. Three of the four explain themselves in their phenotype notes and mco-06 is genotyped, so hers was the only one with an empty note and nothing at all behind the claim. S_BARBY_RULING
A flag is not an error. It marks a place where two sources say different things, or where an attribution cannot be made on the evidence held.

This directory is a working aid compiled from published charts, registry documents and breeder statements. It is not a register and it has no standing of any kind. The grade attaches to the animal, not to the line: a cat whose ancestor was genotyped is line-traced, not genotyped.
