    Welcome to CFA


    I put down my book, The Meaning of Zen, and see the cat smiling into her fur as she delicately combs it with her rough, pink tongue. 'Cat, I would lend you this book to study but it appears you already read it.' She looks up and gives me her full gaze. 'Don't be ridiculous' she purrs, 'I wrote it.'
    - From Miao by Dills Laing

    I love that quote because it sums up how we approach the relationship with our cats. The best we can hope for is equal footing. This phenomenon is the magic of all cats.

    I welcome you to the CFA website to find your special magic. Within these pages you will find the cats of CFA. The varieties of our breeds form a wonderful and varied mosaic. We have cats with a look and temperament to fit your personal style. I encourage you to visit this site often. I know you will fall in love. When you do, that CFA registered pedigreed cat will change your life forever. When you decide to enrich your life with one of our CFA registered breeds, we are here to help you. Take advantage of our free services to help you find the newest member of your family.

    We are glad to share the magic.

    The Cat Fanciers' Association is proud to be the largest registry of pedigreed cats. Since our inception in 1906, we have been dedicated to our mission of promoting the pedigreed breeds of cats and enhancing the well-being of ALL cats.

    We invite you to explore our website. As you will see, we accomplish our mission through many different avenues: education and outreach programs, CFA licensed cat shows, support of charitable organizations, and cat rescue and disaster relief initiatives. We are very excited to present our cat show spectator outreach program, the Ambassador Program, and our newest education and outreach program, CatsCenterstage, with its interactive community forum. In addition, you will find valuable resources and information on a variety of topics, including cat health and behavior, pedigreed breeds, and how to enter your own cat in a CFA licensed show. We know that you will find something here that meets your needs!

    On behalf of the Cat Fanciers' Association Board of Directors, our partner sponsors and our 500+ member clubs around the world, thank you for taking the time to visit. We hope you'll return frequently to see what's happening in a truly magical, world class organization, The Cat Fanciers' Association.
