Back to ; Shedu Verse | Shedu Information Overview
Arabian shedu cats is a crossbreed of finest asian shedu cats and classic ones.
These elegant and athletic creatures have both breathtaking speed and very high stamina. Also, they are very loyal and known for their good, friendly character.
Arabian shedu cats are the most recent branch of shedu cats and they are still not admitted as separate breed by OESR.
They are called “arabian” for the origin of the very first cats of this bright and unique type. This breed is very young and only on it`s way to be acknowledged by breeder`s community.
So far people strive to get very fast, slender, yet harmonic animals with outstanding conformation and speed qualities.
HEIGHT: 45 cm - 210 cm ( desired ; 170 - 195 cm )
WEIGHT: 15 kg - 900 kg ( desired ; 300 - 700 kg )
TYPES: Only one type of build ; Physical Traits.
- Arabians have, for reasons unknown, managed to genetically dodge 'dwarfism' as a possible trait.
COAT COLOURS: Shedu cat coat colors
MAX SPEED: registered record - 314 km
DIET: Carnivore
CHARACTER: differs. desired one is fiery, lively, loyal to one person.
PROLIFICACY: 1 cub ( up to 2 with medical supplements )
( rarely a third, always deformed or stillborn )
BREEDING LIMITS: Every cat must have their SPC or PBB or FP also known as breeding papers to be able to breed.
- Females start with 3 breeding slots. More may be achieved through AP or as prizes in different competitions.
- Females can be bred only once per breeding season. ( up to twice per season with medical supplements )
-Males start with 5 breeding slots. More may be achieved through AP or as prizes in different competitions.
- Males may be bred several times during one breeding season.
INBREEDING: Inbreeding within visible lineage is STRICTLY forbidden.
- ( Notice that in theory, first generation pure Arabian might be inbred within visible lineage. For example, your cat has a classic Shedu tom cat "Magic Paws 89" seen in visible lineage twice. It is okay. Yet you won`t be able to breed your Arabian Shedu to any other Shedu of any type, that also has "Magic Paws 89" in it`s visible lineage. )
- Arabians can not be bred to another Arabian that is related to them via pure Arabian blood at any way in lineage. Into account are taken parents of the starter Arabian Shedu cat. And Arabian Shedu cats, produced by them.

HOW TO BREED FOR AN ARABIAN SHEDU
Breeding Arabians is a very involved and labor intensive process and even expensive in some cases if you decide to buy stock or breedings from other players.
There are three 'plans' you can use to try to breed an Arabian Shedu Cat (featured below), but no matter what plan you choose the resulting cubs must also hit all the minimum stats listed to the right of this paragraph to be rolled for a CHANCE at being an Arabian.
!! Additionally, breeding two UNRELATED Arabian fails from the SAME plan (ie. Plan I Fail x Plan I Fail) can also give chances for Arabian cubs to be born!
!! NOTICE: Sub-sequent Breeding of Failed Arabian Attempts will not roll any chance of Arabian. (Ie. Arab Fail x Arab Fail = Arab Fail < this cub cannot be bred for further attempting at Arabian )
STATS NEEDED:
SPEED: 45
SUREFOOT: 35
AGILITY: 30
CONFORMATION: 33
TEMPERAMENT: 25
!! These are minimal requirements. They will change with time, as stats of other cats improving.
NEEDED STAT WILL BE:
(AS OF DECEMBER 2023)
SPEED: 45 ==> 55
SUREFOOT: 35 ==> 45
AGILITY: 30 ==> 40
CONFORMATION: 33 ==> 43
TEMPERAMENT: 25 ==> 35
PLAN I
PLAN II
PLAN III
IMPORTANT TO REMEMBER!
93,7+% of blood considered pure.
Please notice that gaining this blood and stat percentage is not a guarantee for an Arabian type offspring, since nature is always a lottery with chances.
Gaining needed stats and blood % gives you a chance to get an arabian built offspring. If the breeding between one pair failed to produce the arabs, it DOES NOT mean it can not happen in future litters between same cats. Keep trying!Each and every step of the breeding plan should be completed in order to achieve the arabian breeding project. That means that you can not use an imported cat with no known parents as a breeding partner for any step of the project other than starter!
For any new projects (started after December 2021) you can use only two custom cats (ordered fully custom imports) as the starters in any single project. Semi-customs, RNG-imports, etc do not fall under this rule. This restriction considers only full custom imports where you could select full genotype and desired physical traits.
FAQs
Q.
Is the order of breedings vital? You can`t change it?
A.
The order is vital. However, some pairings (especially in the first gen breeding) can be swapped among each other. But keep in mind that there are other restrictions that may stop your alternative pairing from a successful breeding. Therefore we highly recommend you to stick to the plan that you`ve chosen.
If anything can be changed 100% safely - you will find a remark under the breeding plan step.
For example, the 3d plan, that involves komainu crossbreeding in first generation.
You need to breed:
100% Komainu x 100% Classic heavy shedu* and
100% Asian shedu x 100% Classic slim shedu.
(*You can swap Classic shedus here safely.)
You can go:
100% Komainu x 100% Classic Slim shedu and
100% Asian shedu x 100% Classic heavy shedu.
This will still be legit and safe. And you can find this remark right under this step in the plan.
Q.
CAN I BREED AN ARABIAN OUT OF TWO 'FAILED ARABIANS' ?!
A.
Short answer: yes
- Need to be from the same plan (ex. Plan 3 -> 62.5 / 25 / 12.5) - Need to be unrelated
- Only the **first failed generation** can still create an arab, further linebreeding will NOT result in an arab
Any other breeding will NOT result in an arabian as it would dilute the required traits/builds/percentages. Please note that chances of success for such a breeding are lower than the 'official' attempt with perfect parents.
Q.
I have a cat with proper bodybuild, stated on it`s ref. Yet i know that cat has fenghuang cat in its lineage. And even being a 50/50 Abunai-Qilin it won`t fit in program as starter?
A.
AS STARTER - it will fit. As long as cat has fitting bodybuild and blood percentage (talking here about cat being 100% asian shedu, for example) it will be ok as a starter/
Q.
I have a cat with needed % of asian types blood, yet it`s bodybuild is singtoo!
Would that cat fit in the program as starter?
A.
At this point we do not have singtoo as a bodytype anymore.
Singtoo is considered a mane type. And if your cat is Old-type singtoo you still can use this cat as a starter anywhere where actual bodybuild is not mentioned, as in 3d plan, for example.
