The Blue List Registry
is the brain child of Carol Ann Brewer, the breed founder.
It is not just an indication of the cat's pedigree - ancestral
lines - but an official Registry. If a cat is not on the
Blue List Registry, to be blunt, it is not 'Blue Listed',
whatever its pedigree happens to be. Saying a cat is 'Blue
List eligible' is like saying it is 'TICA eligible'...
it means nothing unless the cat is actually registered.
It is an unfortunate truth
that while many breeders claim that they have Blue List
Pixie-Bobs they have never even submitted them to the
Registry for a review. Yes, that's right... a review.
Even a cat of very good lines might be rejected if it
has more than one major fault (re: the Show standard)
or more than three minor flaws. You can ask to see the
certificate proving that a breeder's cats are truly what
they claim them to be. However, another important resource
for anyone considering the purchase of a Pixie-Bob is
the website of the International Pixie-Bob Conservancy.
The Blue List Registry
is operated by a closed group of devoted Pixie-Bob breeders
- most of whom are the first breeders who struggled for
the breed's recognition by TICA. They are also known as
the Pixie-Bob Founding Board. This is a very small breed-devoted
organization that is operated independantly of any other
cat association. Please click on the certificate below
to learn more about the Blue List program. You will be
transported to the official website of the Pixie-Bob Founding
Board and they are the best authority for explaining how
the Blue List Registry operates.
On this website, you will
be able to identify the officially Blue Listed cats from
a list published online by the Pixie-Bob Founding Board.
Their owners/breeders will also be able to display the
following image in their advertising and on their websites.
