Help & Guides
Everything you need, explained simply
If you can use Facebook, you can use Perfect Pedigrees. Our guides walk you through every step in plain English — no jargon, no assumptions. And if you ever get stuck, a real person is one message away.
Start here
Our short guides cover the essentials. Pick the one that matches what you want to do.
Getting started
Create your account, sign in (including the easy magic-link option), and find your way around your own dashboard and private database.
Adding your cats
Two easy ways: type names in with autocomplete, or just upload photos and PDFs of the pedigrees and let us do the typing for you.
Building & printing
Build a pedigree on screen, check a pairing with COI and trial matings, then print at home or order a printed card by post.
Getting help
Stuck on anything? Here’s how to reach us — contact form, email and WhatsApp — and what to expect when you do.
COI & trial matings
Run a trial mating before the cats meet, read the COI and diversity figures in plain English, and check whether a pairing is too close.
Branding your certificate
Add your cattery logo and a photo of the cat, choose a white or cream style, and let titled names in red and the QR code do the rest.
Printing & posted cards
Preview free, pay per print to unlock the clean PDF, then print at home or order a posted card on white or cream — redownloads free.
More guides on the way
As we open the founding-member beta, we’re adding picture-by-picture walkthroughs for each part of the app. Coming soon: creating announcement cards, and sharing your pedigree as a live online link.
