On the Norwegian Forest Cat, has been written about almost everything. His impressive aspect and his name in it make think about a survivor of chill forest of Norway. Robust East and resistant cat, which can support the most intense colds, seems to take with it the same blood of the seasoned Vikingos. Nevertheless, his calm character and his frolicker's spirit, they are the characteristics that led it to being one of the most popular cats in Europe. There are several theories on his origin. One places him with the Vikingos in the ships in his multiple explorations. His usefulness to hut would be obvious since not even an alone mosquito survives the attention of the Norwegian Forest Cat In his origin we know with certainty that the cat of the Forest of Norway possesses information documented from the 16th century,

But newly in the year 1977 it was when the same one achieved the international recognition of the FIFe.. But it should wait up to the decade of the 90 to obtain the recognition of English Cat Fancy . The cats of the Forests of Norway had in his history a very black moment that almost takes them to the disappearance. This owed between other one sew, to it her crosses with stray cats of short hair in Norway. But lucky a group of fans was aware of the danger to which the race was exposed and with great effort they managed to recover her. Overcome the odd one of the Second War, this group managed to save to the national race of Norway, the Skogkatt, (Cat of the Forest) the way in Norway it is known. Of there in forward the way of the Norwegian Forest Cat towards the popularity it seems not to find any resistance. It is kept constant in growth not only in his place of origin, but in the whole world according to feline associations Carves: The Forest of Norway is a cat of big height.

In the shape of myths, legends, anecdotes and different histories there has been written of some form the special being of these felines. It calls the attention, and it will be for his impressive aspect, the variety of stories that attribute qualities of braveness, skill and opportunism to the Norwegian Forest Cat

In our cattery we have observed that the great majority of the individuals have a trend to show their interest in an open way for any animal or person who's in frony of them. They approach to smell, with its tail high managing, with gesture of curiosity, to see what's going on. A clear minority proves to be more cautious, to the defensive, etc.

They are cats with a clear social disposition. They are more content accompanied then alone. Be so much for animal or human company. A solitary cat shows to be affective in excess after being released, it is necessary vent. His activities are constant and looks for accomplices for any game, and up to be going to sleep. They look for the conviviality harmonically above all.

The males are not ruled by structures of army register and, as the lions, always they decide what is good for them, foreign to terms of hierarchy. The females on the contrary have a paper more measured in the herd. They are better organized , they have clearer which are their positions and privileges of each one and display an amazing role to maintain the needs of the troop. In ocassions we verify that they use a box for the solid and another for the liquids when they live in larger groups..

Individually there are big differences to observe, both of predisposition and of habits. Some of them feel the call of the 'athlete' and find ways of acceding to the inaccessible and different thing there affect that they all play, up to chasing their own tail. But jointly they have almost all who are brave, active, happy and social. That are very sure of themselves and they share this confidence with those that surround them. They are big hunters and more than one butterfly or little creature has paid this very expensive price when collision. And especially they are pragmatic and do the better of their life with what they have availably, being grateful for the good will with a disinterested fondness.. But beware they,have a well developed memory , for the good and for the bad.

 

The Easy Mind Sistem (EMS) simplifies and replaces the combination of letters and numbers previously used to identify cats. In the former system, the codes of identification were not uniform in all the races. In the EMS, they are. A black cat, for example, always is identified by the minuscule letter 'n' without mattered which is his race. A cat colorpoint, independently of his race, always is identified by '23' in his code.

With all this information, you might know the code EMS of your cat without having to search in his pedigree.

First, locate the first three letters of the code (in capital letters) of the breed of your cat.

Second, to find the color of your cat for your race (minuscule letters) to write it leaving a space between this one and three previous letters.If your cat is a 'Silver' this one will have always a 's' after the principal color, that is to say a black silver will be 'ns' and a blue silver will be "a" 'ace'

Third, if your cat has drawing, his correspondent finds to his design. All these cats, except the smokes (smoke), must have a code that identifies this design. The British, Persian and Burmillas can be Shaded or Shell. A Chinchilla is a Shell, which means that only the tops of the hair it has color. The code for Shell is '12'. In consequence, one Persian Chinchilla will take as a code ' PER ns 12 ' A Persian silver Shaded whose tipping spreads down below towards the root of the hair will be ' PER ns 11 '

The EMS, does not have a genetic base but it takes as an aim logical and easy being. With a bit of practice any interested party should be capable of speaking the EMS with such a fluency as his mother language. So you take the Pedigree of your cat and look at the qualifications of him and his forbears with the codes, you will see of one fo9rma easily since some spend qualities to one or another generation.
