Antonia is right; virtually all present day MCs share a substantial part of their lineage if you go back far enough. Three of our cats are very closely related to one another (within the last three generations). The fourth is a bit more distantly related.
Here is our girl Bella's pedigree on Pawpeds:
Chemicoons Bellagio
The above link expands back four generations, but if you select to expand back 10 generations people will probably find lots of overlaps with their cats since this gets back to the clones and even foundation cats along some lines. Because Bella's maternal grandfather, Calicoon Sherman, was bred for quite a while (I believe), she has clones only five generations back, and a foundation cat only seven generations back.
If you look at her foundation ancestors, you see she is 43% Andy and Bridget Katt and 73% Top Five:
Chemicoons Bellagio
Our other girl, Allie, is also in Pawpeds:
Coonbitzky Aldehyde of Chemicoons
While Sherman was one of Bella's grandfathers, he was one of Allie's great grandfathers.
Our youngest boy Zephyr's father is a brother to Allie (though not from same litter).Last edited by mcguy; 4th January 2011 at 10:58 PM.
