Crested versions of the Sheltie (the Coronet), the Texel (the Merino) and the Satin have their own standards and come under the remit of other Specialist Clubs.

English Crested versions of all smooth-coated Guide Standard cavies will be regarded as having a Guide Standard, this comprising the same features as for the corresponding Guide Standard cavy, plus the crest which must conform to the requirements laid down in the Standard for the English Crested.

Crested versions of Coated varieties such as Abyssinian, Rex, Teddy, Peruvian and Alpaca, and American Crested versions of Ticked or Marked cavies, are not recognised as either Standardised or Guide Standard cavies.
