Keeping a stud
While there are a number of reasons why you may be thinking of keeping a stud cat, the most important goal, above all else, should be to improve the breed.

Prefixes
A prefix is an exclusive word that is associated with you and your cats. Known as your ‘breeder signature’ a prefix will identify your kittens aside from those of anyone else.

Breeders Scheme
The Scheme was created to provide a trustworthy environment for new owners to find a kitten that suits them.

Import & export
This page will give you the details you need to register an imported cat with GCCF, and the requirements for exporting

Breed Advisory Committees
There is a BAC for each breed with responsibility for the interests of the cats of its breed by monitoring and maintaining its Breeding Policy, Registration Policy and the SOP.
