Rocket's pedigree

Coefficient of Inbreeding (COI) is 0.0084
(extremely low)

Cedarwood Rocket Man of Aksum is an outcross to both our CFA breeding program and our TICA breeding program. We keep the CFA lines separate from the TICA lines, but use the CFA lines in the TICA lines for outcrossing. He is also registered in CFA as Cedarwood KV Rocket Man of Advance (Advance Abyssinians is Aksum Abyssinians in CFA).

Rocket is our second in-house stud. After I 'finally found' Baja, her breeder offered Rocket to me. I couldn't resist, he was so beautiful and had such a sweet face! He is a sweet boy, a real purrbaby!

Thank you, Karen Vance of Cedarwood Abyssinians, for putting so many years of hard work into breeding healthy beautiful Abyssinians, and for allowing us to have this beautiful boy! :-)

Rocket has been retired and was given to a friend. He only had one or two kittens in each litter so we are using our friends' stud males while our two upcoming stud boys - Murphy and Mikey - grow up.
