Comparison of Bicolors' standard CFA and other associations.

GCCF

Recently in GCCF (Great Britain) an addition to Persian standard in GCCF were published '...to refuse in the awarding the first place in the class of kitten and awarding the title in Open Classes ( in CFA it is equivalent to the disqualification ) to the animals, having an upper part of nasal mirror upper than lower eyelid.' There continue to storm a debates about this problem, and GCCF takes additons to the standard of Bicolors about disqualification of animals with wrong proportions in the correspondence of colors. Defect of color is considered: " Plenty of white on the body " Absence of white marks on the head " As for GCCF standard right Tortoiseshell with White (equivalent CFA calico) and bicolored colors must not have less than 1/3 and not more ? of white in the color. Face must be both colored and white, legs must be white , a little quantity of basic color is accepted. Some of quantity of white on the tail part is allowed, but white tail part in full is a defect. " Van according to GCCF standard is basically white except marks of basic color, situated on the head, ears and tail part. Ideally right colored animal must not have little spots on the body and legs except three accepted.

This standard, of course, would fined that cats, who have more than half of white, but less than required for Harlequin. In 1989 CFA decided this problem to envelope that luxurious cats in full, many of which take part in the exhibitions and reach the final today.

FIFE

Standard in FIFE defines three separate color variants:

" Bicolor must have at least ? , but not more than 2/3 of basic color of hair (white flame on the face and white small strap on the back part of body are desired). " Color Harlequin requirs for at least ?, but not more than ? of basic color " Van requires for 1/6 of basic color (colors are for Tortoiseshell cats) and 5/6 of white. More precise definition of division of colors in color Van is two colored patches on the face, separated by flame, and one spot, beginning on the buttock part and enveloping all tail part. Three little colored patcheson the body and (or) on legs.

CFA

Standard CFA describes esthetis ideal without making experts become mathematicians. Judge is guided by the standard of color, whichdictates the quantity of white as privileged minimum. Contrary to the widespread wrong opinion there is no there never was percent of white in the standard of CFA. Expert by appraisal of the right of color is guided by 20 points, 10 points of which are added for colored and 10 points are for white marks. So, standard provides the operation factors of appraisal to discretion of judge, who decides himself how colors are balanced for definite type of animal.

WCF

Standard of colors of bicolor, harlequin and van practically repeats the standard of FIFE for the exception of an addition about desirability of presence of ended white ring on the neck and symmetric coloring of the face.
