We, the undersigned, request that the Cat Fanciers' Association, Inc., respects its current registration rules for the Abyssinian breed and upholds the required 8 generations of full disclosure of ancestors for cats from foreign registries, if the certified pedigree process has to be used. If these 8 generations reveal that the cat has not been bred according to CFA registration rules (for example if it has been outcrossed to another breed including Somalis) it shall either be recorded in Cat's Ancestral Tracking Service (CATS) System indefinitely, or in the regular breed registry of the breed the cat was outcrossed to, if CFA standard allows it. Any offspring of a parent recorded in CATS cannot be moved to the regular breed registry without the approval of the breed council. We, the undersigned, also request that any registered offspring whose sire OR dam has been recorded in CATS, be moved back to CATS or be registered - if applicable - with the breed that has been used as an outcross.

Please note that the donation is NOT asked from the petition committee (we don't receive anything) but from

Please, report immediately to the Petition Committee should you receive harassment from anybody because you signed the petition, so we can put a stop on it. Thank you!


Мы, нижеподписавшиеся, требуем от CFA (Cat Fanciers' Association, Inc.) соблюдать существующие в данной системе правила регистрации для Абиссинской породы кошек и поддерживать требование безоговорочного обнаружения в 8 поколениях предков из иностранных регистров при выдаче сертифицированных CFA родословных. Если в оговоренных 8 поколениях любой абиссинский кошки обнаружено несоблюдение правил регистрации CFA (например, если в ее родословной есть ауткроссные вязки с сомали), это должно быть записано либо в Службе Слежения Наследственности Кошек (Cat's Ancestral Tracking Service (CATS)), либо в обычном регистре той породы, с которой был ауткросс, если стандарт CFA это допускает. Все потомство родителей, занесенных в систему CATS, не может быть перенесено в обычный регистр без одобрения Совета по Породе. Мы, нижеподписавшиеся, требуем также, чтобы любой потомок, чьи отец ИЛИ мать занесены в систему CATS, был также перенесен в CATS или был – если это допустимо – зарегистрирован в породе, с которой был ауткросс

I am honestly overwhelmed by the thoughtful messages so many of you have shared about preserving the integrity of our breed. This entire movement belongs to you because I am just the person who set up the page while you are the ones doing the heavy lifting.

I am honestly a bit overwhelmed by the way this has grown. This momentum belongs entirely to the people who took the time to read the details and care about the future of this breed.
