I guess this is a dumb question, but exactly how are cats bred? I know that you just let the cats mate, but is that all there is to it? Don't you have to carefully select the mating partners? I'm pretty dang sure there is more to it than meets the eye.

I'm asking because we want some new kittens but I don't know if there are certain steps we should follow. We currently have a female siamese that we would love to breed.

Can anyone give me some advice?

A cat breed is an infrasubspecific rank for the classification of domestic cats. A cat is considered to be of a certain cat breed if it is true breeding for the traits that define that breed. Various cat registries around the world record and certify the pedigrees. Only three percent of owned cats belong to a cat breed, and an even smaller percentage of those are suitable as show cats. A registration certificate proves that a cat belongs to a cat breed by showing the cat's pedigree back to at least four generations. The whole concept of cat breeds is a relatively new one.
