how many litters can be registered to a queen

Question
How many litters can a queen have registered to her? She is on the GCCF Active list.


Also how many litters can a male stud have registered to him?

Answer
There is no recommended number of litters for either male or female, but the female is limited by her productive cycle.  However, the GCCF will not be happy to register kittens any more frequently than 17 weeks apart without a VERY good reason.  The recommendation with the health and welfare of the queen in mind should be litters around 9-12 months apart.
