| Breed Winner in 1974-75, GG, BW, NW Velva's Cobalt Baron of Tsar Blu |
Although the award began in that season, CFA is retroactively adding the title to Breed Winners of previous years. In this article, Best of Breed was researched back to the 1966-67 show season where the best of breed cats were first listed in the CFA yearbooks.
The first year a Russian Blue qualified for the award was the 1966-67 show season, and these cats are listed below. Although CFA may not have yet updated their records to add the BW title to the cats listed below, the cats have earned the right to use the BW title.
For the Russian Blue, the first Breed Winner was GC, BW Tinnerdalens Njusia, a female, who earned the award in 1966-67. The first male Breed Winner occured the following year, earned by GC, BW Kit Kin Peter.
