Turkish Van Points
Below you will find the points that says WHY we are against the none pattern
Turkish Van.
- The Turkish Van cat was developed as a
distinct breed of cat based on the naturally occurring van patterned cats in
Turkey.
- The term Van Pattern was named after the Turkish Van cat and is now used
around the world.
- The Van cat was NOT named after the van
pattern.
- The vanpattern was named after a breed
that only came in van patterns and
was uniquely known for the pattern.
- The van pattern was NOT named after a breed that came in solid,
bi-color, tabby or tortoiseshell.
- A solid white or black cat does not have a van pattern.
- Turkish Vans in colors other than van pattern were created through
intentional introduction of other colors.
- A genuine Turkish Van only has van patterned ancestors and only
produces van patterned offsprings.
