		Registered owners of all GCCF registered cats/kittens accept the jurisdiction of the Governing Council of the Cat Fancy and undertake to abide by this general code of ethics.

		An offer should be made at the time of sale to help with the rehoming if at any time circumstances require the cat to be found a new home.

	Oriental Longhair Cats in the UK
		Norwegian Forest Cats were recognised by the GCCF in 1989 and granted Championship status from June 1st 1997, Ragdolls were recognised in March 1990, with Championship status from June 2001, and finally the Tiffanies (longhaired Burmese and Asians) in September 1990.
		The Origin of the breed in the UK In the late 60's and early 70's, Kernow Gerza and Kernow Koptos, offspring of a mating between a Sorrel Abyssinian and a Seal Point Siamese, were used by Maureen Silson in her breeding programme.
		Cats being the cussed little things they are, it is always a fair bet that in a mixed litter the longhaired kittens will be pointed and the solid coloured kittens will turn out to be variants!

	Ursinha British Shorthair Cats and Kittens
		I showed Millie as a kitten and young queen with the Governing Council of the Cat Fancy (GCCF) and her first litter was born in 1995.
		I had fun showing him with the Cat Association for a couple of years, especially when he was named CA Exhibit of the Year in 1991.
		A lot of my cats' registered names are also Portuguese words - this has grown out of the fact that I spent three years working in Brazil during my time with the Foreign and Commonwealth Office, and was at that time fluent in the language.

	IAMS vivisection exposed
		The GCCF currently licence 12 cat shows a year and state that all of their 139 affiliated cat clubs have a strong interest in the welfare of cats and the GCCF themselves have a "specialist interest in cat welfare".
		After our last encounter with them at the Supreme cat show last month (see report below), it seemed that IAMS were determined to step up their publicity drive with representatives giving out promotional flyers and holding one of the largest displays at the show.
		The GCCF refused to: expel IAMS from the Supreme (in so doing the GCCF would lose the large cheque IAMS paid for its huge 'stall'); make a public statement against the vivisection of cats in general, or IAMS vivisection of cats in particular; or meet with representatives of Uncaged Campaigns.

	Cat Fancy - Magazines Store

		The cat is out of the tree and is fine in her new home.
		More often than not, though, I find myself disappointed with the magazine, especially after I've finished reading it.

	Homepage of the Norwegian Forest Cat Club UK
		There are lovely tales of the acquisition and registration of many of the most famous early cats - for example, Timotei, who was rescued from under a tractor in the fields of a Norwegian farm and was so oily and greasy that he had to be thoroughly washed in a certain brand of shampoo.
		The Norwegian Forest Cat as we know it today has developed through natural selection, as only the toughest cats with the thickest waterproof coats and other special features would be able to survive in Norway's harsh climate.
		The exact origins of the Forest Cats will never be precisely established, but one thing is certain: NFCs can be found in Norwegian folklore, where it is said that these cats were the family pets of the Vikings.
