Switching from Breeders Assistant: a painless guide

Thinking of moving off Breeders Assistant? Here’s why breeders are switching, and how to bring your data across for free.

Breeders Assistant has been a faithful companion for many catteries, but it’s a Windows-only desktop program — tied to one computer, awkward to share, and no longer keeping pace. If you’ve been thinking about moving, here’s what you need to know.

Why breeders are moving

A modern, browser-based tool means you can work from your laptop, tablet or phone, with your data safely in the cloud and backed up automatically. No installs, no “which PC is my data on?”, and certificates that look genuinely beautiful.

How to export your data

Breeders Assistant can export your cats and pedigrees to a data file. We’ll point you to the exact option for your version — it only takes a couple of minutes.

We migrate it for free

Send us your export and we’ll import your cats and pedigrees into your new Perfect Pedigrees account for you, at no charge. It’s our way of making the move effortless.

What you’ll gain

GCCF and TICA-correct rendering, automatic EMS codes, instant COI checks, pay-to-print certificates, and a product that keeps improving. Everything Breeders Assistant did, brought into the browser.
