Cattery Name Registration

按此連接中文網頁.

The purpose of a cattery name is to identify the breeder and/or owner of a cat or kitten and to identify the line of breeding. A new cattery name will be registered for an initial five (5) year period. The fee is $75.00.

You must read the following prior to placing your order for a cattery name:

CFA Cattery Name Registration
Price: $75.00 (initial five year period)
Please complete all information below.
NOTE: Processing of a cattery name application will take approximately 14-21 business days.

NOTE: The 3 boxes below, showing that you have read and understand the cattery name application process, MUST be checked in order for your cattery name application to be handled by Central Office.
   I have read and understand the regulations regarding cattery names.
   I have checked the list of registered cattery names and the one(s) listed below are not already in use.
   I understand that submission of this form is not an automatic approval of the cattery name(s) selected below. If the chosen cattery names below are not available, Central Office staff will contact me via email for resolution.
NOTE: Cattery names may not exceed twelve (12) characters, including dashes, hyphens, blanks, etc. A newly registered cattery name must be at least a minimum of two letters different from any existing registered cattery name. Double letters (tt, ee, ss, etc.) count as one letter. The use or non-use of an “s” indicating plural at the end of a word does not constitute a letter difference.

List your choices for your cattery name. Do NOT enter a word which you are not willing to accept as your cattery name. Second, third or fourth name choices WILL BE USED ONLY if first or preceding choice is not available. ENTER ONLY THOSE ADDITIONAL NAME CHOICES YOU ARE READY TO ACCEPT AS YOUR CATTERY NAME if we are not able to register your first choice.You are not required to enter second, third or fourth choices, however, failure to do so may cause delay if your only choice is unacceptable due to a conflict with existing cattery names.

CATTERY NAMES MAY NOT BE MORE THAN 12 CHARACTERS (letters, dashes, hyphens, spaces, etc.)

A registered cattery name can be renewed for an additional five (5) year period. The fee is $50.00

Permanent Cattery Name Request

Cattery owners now have the option of paying for a permanent recording of their chosen cattery name at any time. Breeders have the option of paying for a permanent name designation with the initial cattery name request or at any time they would like to have this procedure done. This fee would be in addition to the charge for the initial cattery name request. Once the permanent cattery name request is requested and accomplished no further renewal fees will be required.

If a new person wants to establish a cattery name and opts for a lifetime permanent name with CFA the charge would be $75 for the initial process and $100 for the lifetime registration fee for that name.

The current option of a $50 fee for the 5 year time frame would remain in place for those breeders not wishing to request a permanent cattery name. If at any time a breeder wishes to request the permanent name the fee would be $100.

If you are requesting a permanent cattery name IN ADDITION to a new application, please use the appropriate sections of the page to request the new application first. Then, use this section to add the $100.00 permanent cattery name fee.
