Terms used to describe this breed include: friendly, good-natured, accommodating,playful, self-assured, hardy, uncomplaining, quiet, devoted, gentle and placid. Said to likechildren and dogs. Characteristically lazy until a rodent appears, when it becomes asavage hunter.Owner's GuideDomestic Breed: An old French breed, dating from the 1300s or even earlier. The name of

'Chartreux Cat' was first used for this breed in 1750. It is sometimes referred to as the'Chartreuse cat', the 'Carthusian Cat', the 'Monastery Cat', or the 'Blue Cat of France'.Sometimes known as the 'smiling cat'. In France it is called the Chat des Chartreux; inGermany it is the Kartuser; in Holland it is the Karthuizer ; and in Italy the Certosino .Appearance: A strong, heavily-built, broad-headed, short-haired, blue coated, orange-eyed cat with rather finely boned legs. Affectionately described by one American breederas 'a potato on toothpicks'.

History: A cat of obscure origin. As with several other ancient breeds, there are a numberof conflicting stories as to how it began:(1) It originated as a cross between an Egyptian Cat and a Manul Cat. There is noscientific evidence whatever to support this fanciful idea.(2) It was originally imported into France, in the 17th century, from the Cape of Good

Hope in South Africa by Monks of the Carthusian Order.La Grande Chartreuse, just north of Grenoble, in SE France near the Italian border, wasthe principal monastery of the Carthusians, a Roman Catholic order established in theyear 1084. Renowned for their yellow and green liqueurs, the Carthusian monks havealso become famous for their own special breed of monastic cat. The oldest reference tolink the monks with this breed is found in Bruslon's 1723 Universal Dictionary, in whichhe says: It 'is called Chartreux because of the monks of this name who owned the breedfirst.'. Thirty years later, a little doubt has crept in: 'Chartreux cats, perhaps namedbecause it was the monks of this name that were the first to have this breed.' (Chevalierde Jancourt in the Grand Encyclopaedia of 1753). Unfortunately there is no archival

evidence that they ever possessed such a breed. Replying to a query about the ChartreuxCat in 1972, the Prior of the Grand Chartreuse had this to say: 'We have never had theChartreuse order...at the Cape of Good Hope. As for the subject of a breed of cat whichhad been of use by the Grand Chartreuse, our archives stand silent. Nothing lets usassume that a breed of this type of cat had been utilized in any epoch of our long history.'.(3) It originated in the Middle East and was given to the Carthusian Monks by the knightsreturning from the Crusades. The fact that blue-grey cats were recorded from Syria,Cyprus and Malta, all places where the crusaders were active, has been offered in supportof this theory. But again, there is no archival evidence that the monks ever received thistype of cat.

(4) It originated in the Middle East and arrived in Europe about 450 years ago, where itwas exploited by the fur trade, its woolly pelts being highly prized for their fine, densetexture.(5) It began in Northern Europe and Siberia, where its thick, woolly coat protected it fromthe intense cold, and later developed into both the Russian Blue and the Chartreux. If thisis true, then the famous Blue Cat of France may simply have been a non-pedigreeEuropean domestic, wandering the fields and alleyways until it was taken up as a specialbreed. An early Encyclopaedia published in London in the 1780s suggests that blue catswere, at that time, the dominant form of domestic feline in France. The author of theencyclopaedia, George Howard, states categorically that : 'In France the cats are all of a

bluish-lead colour.'.

If either (4) or (5) are correct, they beg an obvious question. How did this cat becomeassociated with the Chartreuse Monastery? A possible answer may lie in a reference tothe word 'Chartreux', in Bruslon's 1723 Universal Dictionary. There, mention is made of afine wool imported into France from Spain, called the 'Pile de Chartreux'. Bearing inmind the very fine, woolly coat of this breed, it may well have been that the cat wasnamed after the wool and that the monks of La Grande Chartreuse had nothing to do with


16/23

it. Later, their connection may have been assumed, simply because they had the samename. In this way, legends can easily be born and then repeated time and again until theyare part of a widely accepted tradition.Whichever of these stories is true, we do know for certain that the breed is recorded,named and illustrated by Buffon in his 18th century Natural History. And 19th century

British authors were also aware of the breed, although by then it seems to have becomeless common: 'Bluish-grey is not a common colour; this species are styled "ChartreuxCats", and are esteemed rarities'. (Charles Ross, 1868).By the 1920s, French cat breeders had started to take a serious interest in the Chartreux .In 1928, two spinsters, the Leger sisters of the Guerveur Cattery, began a selectivebreeding programme on the small island known as the Belle-Ile- sur-Mere. Theirfoundation pair were a male called Coquito and a female called Marquire. They madegood progress and, by 1931, were able to exhibit the breed in Paris. Sadly, however, theirefforts were interrupted by the chaos of World War II.After the war the breed was barely surviving and the decision was taken to re-construct it

using it non-pedigree French cats that had blue-grey coats. This was done until theoriginal shape and style of the Chartreux had been achieved. It is these re-constituted catsthat comprise the foundation stock of the modern Chartreux. (This also explains whysome authorities now refuse to distinguish between the British Blue, the European Blueand the modern Chartreux.)In 1970 ten of these new Chartreux were imported into the United States by theCalifornia breeder Helen Gamon. There, an enthusiastic group of breeders continued todevelop them until they had gained championship status.Personality: Terms used to describe this breed include: friendly, good-natured,accommodating, playful, self-assured, hardy, uncomplaining, quiet, devoted, gentle and

placid. Said to like children and dogs. Characteristically lazy until a rodent appears, whenit becomes a savage hunter.Related breeds: There are several breeds of blue-grey cat and the relationship betweenthem has been hotly disputed for many years. They are:(1) The Russian Blue; (2) The British Blue; (3) The Maltese; (4) The Chartreuse Blue; (5)Blue European Shorthair; (6) Exotic Shorthair Blue.Other blue breeds, not confused with the above, include:(7) The Blue Burmese; (8) Korat; (9) Foreign Blue; (10) Blue Longhair.Colour form: Only one colour is recognized: Blue-Grey (Genetically, this is a 'dilutedblack').

All About

Chartreux

Cats and

Kittens

The

Chartreux is a quiet cat, and makes a devoted companion and a good traveler. They arenot known for meowing, but emit a sweet chirrup and are experts at purring. Chartreuxgenerally accept children, other pets, and household noises with little fuss. They will evenadapt to a harness for getting exercise outside, as long as they decide where to go!

Very loveable and affectionate, your Chartreux will love jowl scratches, and will return itwith head butting, which is a sign of love. Chartreux owners moving from room to roomin their houses soon get used to seeing a grey shadow close behind. They are notdemanding, but you might feel a pulling on your leg while seated, indicating that the catwants to sit on your lap for a while and get a good petting. All in all, Chartreux makewonderful household companions and exhibit consistent devotion to their owners.

Its not unusual to find praying Chartreux, like that shown in the photo on the left.Some kittens start this spontaneously when very young; if you see this, you canencourage the little one by dangling a toy in front of the kitten. In any case, it seems to bea quite natural behavior for some Chartreux and they retain this characteristic behavior alltheir lives, frequently begging for food or affection by this praying attitude.

The Chartreux coat is short to medium in length, and ranges from ash to slate grey incolor. Plush and wooly in texture, it consists of down hairs close to the skin and longerguard hairs held up by kinkier support hairs. The hair starts out a light color next to theskin and grows darker farther out; the silver tips give the cat a lovely iridescent sheen.The degree of wooliness depends on the age, sex, and habitat of the individual cat.

Kittens may show some barring, or faint stripes, and some rings on the tail, which usuallydisappears by about two years of age. You can see from these two photographs the resultof this mixture of hair types: the characteristic breaking or wool-like appearance. Thethree-year old female on the left shows this beautiful texture to perfection, as well as thedesirable flat whisker pads. The male on the right shows the heavy coat to be found onsome males as young as three years of age. Your Chartreux will benefit from (and willabsolutely adore) a daily brushing to remove the dead hair as it sheds, especially asWinter turns to Spring and then Summer. Ive found that a good tool to use in addition to


18/23

a brush is a roller lint remover!

When you look your Chartreux in the face, you will be first and foremost struck by thesweet, smiling expression, one of alert intelligence and satisfaction. The eyes will be fromorange to a deep copper color, with a slight upward slant to the outer edge. The picture onthe left shows a 6 month old male with gorgeous deep copper eyes; that on the right is ofa 16 month old female with beautiful orange eyes. The nose is straight and of mediumwidth. The muzzle is small and narrow, with no puffiness to the whisker pads. The earsare medium in height and width, set high on the head and erect.

The cats head will sit firmly on a short neck directly on a large, muscular, well-roundedbody. The chest will be deep, and the Chartreux will have broad shoulders. The overallimpression is of a large cat supported by relatively slender legs and smallish, roundedfeet. There is a marked difference between the male and female cats: although the generalproportions will be the same, females range from 8 to 14 pounds (3.5 to 6.4 kg), whilemales range upwards to 20 pounds (9 kg). Now thats a lot of cat! You will be able to notea heavy, muscular appearance, and a short neck. In profile, the cats face will display a

gentle slope to the nose; the ears will be very well proportioned and set high on a massivehead. The standard Chartreux tail is moderate in length, heavy at the base and oval at thetip.

Without any doubt, quality breeders announce their litters on their website upfront andidentify clearly the parents of their kittens. Be careful with breeders who refuse to sharebasic information.

Equallyimportant:try to find

informationabout howwell thekittens aresocialized.As a rule ofthumb themoreChartreuxcats and theirkittens are

integrated in normal family life .. the better..The most important part of the socializationphase for a kitten is between 0-6 weeks.. Be cautious with breeders with too many breedsand too many different animals to care for..as there is only so much time in a day.. andpets need a lot of attention to be happy.

Another potential clue is to check if the address of the VET who regularly follows thehealth of the breeders Chartreux cats and kittens is mentionned on the breeders website.I believe that providing this information is a sign that a breeder has a long term relationwith a professional VET to care for the well being of his Chartreux cats which is apositive sign to be taken into account in the overall assessment of a breeders seriousness.

2. Comparetheinformationgiven in thebreederswebsite totheinformationprovidedwith otheravailablesources ofinformation such as official Chartreux breed association websites.. and look for breederswho are members of such organizations.

3. Once you have identified a range of breeders that may be of interest to you send an


20/23


21/23

Quality Chartreux breeders are in most cases family breeders who have selected verycarefully their Chartreux and take a lot of pleasure in nurturing their newborn kittens andfinding new families for them. Any breeder can tell you about the dozens of emails theyrecieve without any signature, address or telephone nr .. just inquiring about theavailability or the price. Please contact the breeders in an open manner, do mention your

name and address in an email..

Most Chartreux kittens cost between 850-1000 Euro..in Europe..including microchip andvaccins. In some case the price may be higher..

6. NEVER BUY A KITTEN WHEN YOU CAN NOT CHECK THE KITTEN SORIGIN/BREEDER AND PLEASE DO NOT SUPPORT BREEDING FARMS ASDEPICTED IN THE PICTURE BELOW THROUGH YOURPURCHASE/IGNORANCE. If you do want to adopt a kitten without knowing thebreeder please adopt a kitten (or cat) from an animal shelter.

Although the picture below depicts litte dogs.. breeding farms also exist with cats. Likeyou, I wish every kitten/puppy a good life..but when you adopt kittens from breedingfarms.. more kittens/puppies in these deplorable circumstances.. will be bred so instead ofhelping you make things to become worse.

Finally, Iwish yougood luckand a

pleasantjourney insearchingand findingyour dreamChartreuxkitten..if youhave furtherquestions,just let meknow,
