Building & printing your pedigree
Once your cats are in, building a pedigree takes a few clicks. It’s free to build and view on screen — you only pay when you decide to print.
Build it on screen
- Pick the cat you want the pedigree for.
- Choose how many generations you’d like to show (three up to eight).
- The tree builds itself from your records and the shared pool. Titled and champion names are styled automatically, with titles shown in red.
Check the pairing first (COI & trial matings)
Before you commit to a mating, run a trial mating: pick a sire and a dam and Perfect Pedigrees shows you the resulting pedigree and a plain-English coefficient of inbreeding (COI) — in other words, is this pairing too close? It’s a quick way to make a more informed breeding decision.
Make it yours
Choose from our library of certificate styles — ornate, modern, regal, deco and botanical, in white or cream. Add your cattery logo and a photo of the individual cat or kitten, and colours are labelled automatically with the correct GEMS code. Each certificate also carries a scan-to-verify QR code. No logo yet? We can design one for you for a small one-off fee. (A full step-by-step branding walkthrough, with pictures, is coming soon.)
Print at home, or order a card by post
When you’re happy, you have two choices:
- Download a print-ready PDF and print at home — ready in seconds.
- Order a printed card by post — we print it on premium white or cream card and send it to your door.
Building and viewing is always free; you pay per print, with no subscription forced on the occasional buyer. Whole-litter bundles match the real “three boys, one girl” ordering pattern, and because your cats stay saved, reorders take minutes.
