Cat Breeds Recognised by GCCF

Most are from the Supreme Cat Show web site where you can read more about these Best of Variety and Supreme winners. The photos of the new breeds (which have not had the opportunity to win Best of Variety) have been supplied by their clubs.

Although the total number of cats registered does not vary a great deal from year to year, different breeds rise or fall in popularity.
