Breeder Course

Mandix Misser takes breeding and the welfare of their cats very seriously. While it is fun to breed and it gives much joy it is not something that you should engage in without having an understand and knowledge of the area.
Mandix Misser did not have experience in breeding when we started. It was therefore important to get an introduction and a basic knowledge of breeding. The Danish cat club Racekatten has designed a series of courses that intend to equip breeders with sufficient knowledge. Mandix Misser has now completed this series but continues with selected extra courses that benefit good breeding.

The Course Programme

The programme consists of 4 levels named red, yellow, green, and blue paws. Each paw correspond to 4 courses in various subjects. The red is required and a prerequisite for the next paws. The next levels are not mandatory.
