Feline Registry

The Rare and Exotic Feline Registry was founded in 1984 to promote the responsible development of new breeds of domestic and feral/domestic hybrid cats.  Today REFR has over 270 catteries registered and over 5,800 cats registered. We recognize and register most breeds of cats conforming to uniform breed profiles.  The registry promotes the responsible breeding and health of all felines.
