A CFA International Cat Club - Est. 1972 Dedicated to Silver and Golden Persians and Exotics
The United Silver and Golden Fanciers Club is an international cat club sanctioned by The Cat Fanciers’ Association, Inc. and is dedicated to all things related to Silver and Golden Persian and Silver and Golden Exotic cats. We fulfill our membership requirements by publishing the United Silver and Golden Fanciers Quarterly publication, rather than hosting shows. USGF was formed in 1972 and shortly thereafter, the first USGF Quarterly was published.
Being in print for nearly 50 years, the Quarterly is the oldest breed specific publication of its kind. Publications offer insight to the care and management of breeding, raising, and showing cats and will keep you up to date with show results. Each publication features four distinct sections: Finals, Grands, Show Scenes and Spotlights, as well as interesting articles, including those related to the health and well-being of cats, member profiles, and a section for business card ads.
CFA Breeder Code of Ethics
As a breeder who uses the services of the world’s largest registry of pedigreed cats, I understand I have certain responsibilities to pedigreed cats and to the Cat Fanciers’ Association (CFA).
I am aware that I am representative of CFA breeders in my community.
I will breed my cats with the intent of improving the breed and to produce healthy, happy kittens.
I will deal honestly with the purchasers of my kittens and cats.
To the best of my knowledge and ability I will not, without prior disclosure, sell any kitten/cat that is sick or has been exposed to an infectious disease.
I will not sell or place kittens prior to their attaining a proper level of immunity against common infectious diseases.
I will place cats directly to the new pet owner or in a manner that will enable contact with the ultimate owner to provide on-going education and advice.
I will strive to house my cats in a manner exceeding the CFA Minimum Cattery Standard.
I will ensure my cats are kept in a healthy environment and I will ensure they receive the proper veterinary care as needed.
I will maintain appropriate cattery records and will correctly register litters and cats.
I will work honestly with my fellow breeders and provide timely and correct litter registration information to those who use my cats for breeding.
I will mentor new breeders to ensure they have a solid information foundation.
