There is many standards for our breed within all the different associations, mainly all of them are the same, with just small adjustments in how they are written and how specified they are. Some are very general while others are very detailed. Our standard has not changed, though it seems like our cats have? This is not a good development if you ask me, I guess we all can remember and see what happened to the Persians. 

Do we want this for our breed? I will try to create articles about the change of the breed and stuff like that but that will be in another article.
