I made this chart in hopes of providing as many details as possible pertaining to KittyCatS history, and this information can cover all bases of anyone's interest, from a particular trait to that trait's date of discovery, the picture of the discoverer's first kitty with that trait (always an exciting moment!), down to any other details noted.

The discovery date can be confirmed with the original discoverer which is why I include it as well so I can always reference it later or ask the discoverer a question if needed, especially when someone else provides different discovery data that I may need to contact the currently noted discoverer for, particularly with older traits but it has proven handy as of late with a few of the newer traits such as the actual discovery date of several eyes in the past few months. And others have said they like knowing if their kitty descendant came from the original kitty with that trait and this chart can help with that. Whatever the reason people may end up utilizing this chart for, it's all done in good, light-hearted fun and the more details, the better to cater to everyone's interest in this history chart!
