GC Purssynian's Sunhawke of Abyriginal, DM
First fawn DM!
Any male cat which sires fifteen or more different Grand Champions and/or Grand Premiers and/or DM, or any female cat which is the mother of five different Grand Champions and/or Grand Premiers and/or DM will be awarded a certificate of Distinguished Merit and the suffix DM added to its name and any other titles it may have. "Double titles" such as the same cat being GC & GP, or GC & DM only count as one. A cat never shown or only shown to Ch. but that achieves DM counts equal to producing a grand offspring.
GC, RW Tinbats Bridget Jones' Diary, DM
A One-Litter-DM!
The list below
tries to show all Abyssinians which have achieved the title of Distinguished
Merit as of to date. You can help to keep the list as up-to-date as possible by
e-mailing me at ch.ruessheim@vetadm.unizh.ch
as soon as you hear about a new DM. Thank you!
