THE HISTORY

Going to the search of the ancestors of Cat of the Norwegian Forests , possible to imbattersi in less fantastic devout history or.
The old relative popular legends to the cats of the forests come from sources that they support that the cats of house of the Vichinghi Norwegian were cats of the forests. The Vichinghi took with they the own cats in their wanderings in the world then known and beyond, and it believes that this is the explanation of the great number of cats semiselvati to semilong hair even finds to us to you in Normandia and in the USA.
Gi in the Edda, a handbook species to use of the poets written gives Snorri Sturluson around to 1220, and in which the arguments of which are collected all Bravo poet would have to speak, they are cited of the cats, associating them to two most famous divinit Nordic ones: Freya, the goddess of the love, than vague for the world trying its lost consorte Odur to edge of a wagon hauled from two cats from along hair; and Thor, the God of the thunder, than during its wanderings had to exceed a test of force consisting in raising a large cat.
In effects the Vichinghi held the cats for their pregevole attivit of hunters of rats, beyond that like house cats. The puppys often came give you to the braces of sposini like essential equipment for the new house, and considering exactly that the cats were sacred to the goddess of the love, whose wagon, as said, was dragged from cats, were be a matter of a gift extremely appropriated. Of other part, pu to seem absurd the idea of a wagon dragged from cats, less than is not come true exactly that the cat of the Vichinghi did not have to be the Felis domesticus standard, but Skogkatt , the cat of the forests or Cat of the Norwegian Forests, great ransom and powerful skeleton.
In the 1559 Danish clergyman Peter Clausson Friis , than to that time it lived in Norway and it was a lot interested to the nature, uniforms the Norwegian lynxes in three classes: the lynx-lupo, the lynx-vixen and the lynx-cat. Devout late it was clearly that all the Norwegian lynxes belonged to the same class. What Peter Clausson Friis called lynx-cat was perhaps the true Cat of the Norwegian Forests. decidedly possible, since also to the day today many similitudini between the lynx and the Cat of the Norwegian Forests are found. Devout the immediate ones are that both are cats of great ransom, equip you of high legs, long criniera and forelocks of hair on the orecchie. Beyond to this, both love the water and are many the history that speak about cats of the able forests to take fish in lagos and the streams, exactly like the lynxes.
They have been these similitudini between the lynx and the cat of the forests that have pushed devout and devout times people to having a not superficial interest for these cats.
In the villages there were many cats, naturally, but in the ancient legends there a particular type that it often comes cited a lot, and a great cat to long hair. For its ransoms and the characteristics similar to those of the lynx, the popolani thought that it was a hybrid between dog and cat, or, devout commonly, that average lynx was one.
In the legends collections they give Asbjornsen and Moe the cats of the forests appear various times. They come calls "Huldrekat to you", word that defines "a cat of the forests endowed of a driven in hairy tail" and that it derives from the name of the feminine spirits of the forests, Huldren, exactly. The Norwegian writer Gabriel Scott in 1912 a famous book for children wrote entitled " Slvfaks ", whose main personage was a cat of the forests from the same name.
The biological explanation of the apparition of the cats of the forests that their ancestors were a lot probably cats to short hair of the south Europe that was diffused in Norway cos like in the rest of the continent in preistorica age. Through the natural selection that has worked holding account of the different and difficult climatic conditions of Norway, they are survivors only the individuals with driven in hair and other adaptations to this rigid atmosphere.
In years thirty, the Norwegians interested to the cats began to observe the cats of the forests. Of other part, until the beginning of years seventy, when not that the cats of the forests, like effect of the ruralizzazione of the wild atmosphere and consequent the greater ones chances of survival of the domestic cats to short hair, were start to you towards the extinction, a serious program of breeding was not started. As it is known, the connections between cats to short hair and cats to long hair carry to prole to short hair, cosicch, in absence of factors like the scarsit of cold places that favor the long hair, the cats to long hair are assign to you to disappear in short times.
In December 1975 , enthusiastic breeders founded Norsk Skogkattring (Club of the Cats of the Norwegian Forests), and gi in 1976 the race officially was accepted from the FIF , devout the great organization interested to the cats in Europe.

Hour in front of very many job was found to us in order to find the animals adapted the breeding, making sure itself that the pool genetic it was enough wide in order to hold the far race from the risks of the connections between consanguinei. This job continued in Scandinavia until 1990, when decided to stop to recognize new coming from animals from the campaigns, the so-called the novices.

Between the pioneers the two devout ones remember to you are Else Nylund, name of breeding " Pan ", and Randi and Arild Grotterd that have given great contribution to the race with their breeding" Torvmyra ". The reason for which these two breedings are particularly remembers to you that vegono still it raises cats to you under these names, and to tutt' today practically impossible to find a cat in whose pedigree not ancestors are from some long part the relationship lines who come from "Pan" or "Torvmyra".
Other breeders, than for a reason or the other have stopped to raise Norwegians, but whose infuence pu clearly to be noticed in the race cos like appears to us today, have raised with the names "Colosseum", "av Baune" and "Pjewiks Forest".
The Norwegian pioneers were soon place side by side to you from Danish breeders, like Vibeke Poulsen, ("Dovregubben") and Dortemarie Kaplers ("Guldfakse"). In this moment nobody of these two breedings is producing Norwegian. Vibeke Poulsen was the owner of the first Norwegian arrived in Denmark, whose name Norwegian Wood' s April Dream, call with the nickname of "Sidser". Sidser was recognized like Cat of the Norwegian Forests in one exposure in Denmark, and mor to ET of 16 years.
The acknowledgment of Sidser gave beginning to all. Several cats were import to you in a short one lasso of time. The devout ones known still today are three males, rather anzianotti. Devout the old one, been born in 1980, was IC Rde Peer After he arriv GIC & EP Torvmyra' s Grand Soltario The devout ones loved of the three were EC Colosseum' s Gustav Graah , Distinguished, been born Merit in May 1981. These three stalloni are not obviously devout assets from much time, and only Torvmyra' s Grand still alive Soltario, but all they have largely contributed to the development of the race in Denmark and to its spread in Europe.

Bank I Bordet Darvish The COLORS Of the NORWEGIANS

Like mentioned in the standard, the Cat of the Norwegian Forests recognized in all the colors, with and without white man.

This includes all the designs tabby with and without white man.

Of other part, many of the terms commonly used in order to indicate the colors have mean to you different in the daily language.

Here therefore a short dictionary.

TABBY the genetic term in order us that we call a tigrato cat. The Cat of the Norwegian Forests pu to be found in four different variet of design tabby:
TABBY SPOTTED a cat whose design forms of the bullets (spot in English)
TABBY MACKEREL A cat "to lines", the popular name "tigrato"
TABBY BLOTCHED Called also Classic Tabby, it has the aspect of a marmoreo design
TABBY TICKED The cat has the tigrati head and legs, the uniform colorful body, so as to to be similar a wild rabbit

Some of the colors in which the possible one to find the Cat of the Forests have names many poetici. Who pu to imagine what can mean a called color "tortie smoke"? Exciting sound, but what is similar?

TORTIE Term common in order to define "tricolour" the so-called females. If they introduce a mixture of black and red tortie ", if of red Brown tabby mackerel and the Browns are calls" mackerel torbie ", etc are calls" black. The cats tortie/torbie are always females.
RED A cat whose color goes from the ginger to the carrot. All the red cats have a design tabby, and the great part of they is males.
CREAM A cat that to the human eye appears of less intense color devout rose or, the cream genetically one dilution of the red one.
SMOKE All the colors in which the base of the hair clear, nearly white woman, and the color increases until its flood densit going towards the tips, in the cats smoke not present the design tabby.
SILVER A cat silver a cat smoke in the which present design tabby. All the colors can be in varying silver. A "devout blue silver tabby" clearly of the blue correspondent "tabby", "black silver tabby" devout clearly of the correspondent "black tabby" (or Brown tabby that to say it wants), etc.
BLUE An entire blue cat has one tonalit grey uniform. Pu to vary in intensit from a gray dog of gun to color a pearl. The blue cats can also have a design tabby. Genetically the blue one dilution of the black one
DILUTION With the term dilution the difference of densit agrees of the pigment that they give the every color to single hair of the cat, a black cat has black pigment grains densit in its hairs, a blue cat has densit a much minor, cosicch to the human eye appears gray
RUFISMO the term that defines those geniuses that render the tone of the warm color devout. As an example, Brown tabby pu to seem grayish, or pu to have a color nearly apricot, or an intense brown, with black lines. The devout color of caused intense bottom from the geniuses of the rufismo.
GOLDEN Popular term for the cats from the warm devout colors with very many geniuses of the rufismo.
WHITE Term for a cat completely (genetically) white man. The cats white men can have to the birth a dark spot, call "thumbmark", than of norm to scompare before the life year.
ODD-EYES A cat with a blue eye and an other of color different, green or as an example yellow. This characteristic of typical norm of the cats white men or in cats with very many white man and least color.
NON-AGOUTI A cat that to the human eye appears of uniform color
AGOUTI A term that defines the fact that the greater part of the single hairs of a cat clearly uniform in bands of two different colors, devout and devout alternatively clearly dark.

In order to deepen the argument we advise you to consult the section dedicated to " GENETICS ".

Code EMS (FIF)

Acronym EMS is for ' Easy Mind System'. E' a code formed from numbers and letters thought in order "to identify" in simple and logical way the salienti characteristics of a cat, but not based on the genetic code of the subject. It describes the race to which it belongs the cat, the color, the design of the cape and the color of the eyes.

A code EMS formed from 3 CAPITAL letters, continuations from or devout VERY SMALL letters that define the color, continuations then from an appropriated numerical code that it defines the design of the cape.
