   Membership Information
 


On behalf of the Breeders and Enthusiasts of all traditional cats, thank you for expressing your interest in our group. We are a not-for-profit organization founded in March of 1987 to Protect, Preserve, Perpetuate and Promote the Traditional Siamese Cat. We have since expanded to include Traditional types of all Breeds.  

"...I just wanted to thank you for being you and creating this wonderful organization and registry. I'm proud to be part of this organization and just wanted to say Thank You!" (Frances)

We have made significant progress in bringing back this now very rare type of cat, which features great beauty, loyalty, and personality, along with excellent general health and longevity. This Association binds together our members who share the same interests, and who are among the thousands of previous or present owners of these very special cats. Our members receive a monthly Newsletter containing news about our members and their cats, updates on current standards, reports of promotional activities, educational articles, details and reports of Association meetings, reports of club activities and shows, and includes our Kitten Referral Service. 

"...God Bless your efforts to preserve Traditional Siamese cats.  My wife and I share our home (and or bed!) with five Traditional Siamese cats.  We love them dearly, and we want other people to be able to share their lives with these wonderful kitties." (John)

We have our own registry for ALL TRADITIONAL TYPES OF CATS AND KITTENS, AS WELL AS FOR HOUSEHOLD PETS. Registry rules and a list of breeds already accepted are available to all who are interested. To support our efforts, you are cordially invited to join our Association. To receive our Rules, join our Friendly group, or to receive our Breeders list, just check the appropriate box, clip and return the coupon below to the address indicated. 

"...thanks for all your help, hard work and promptness.  You do excellent work and I look forward to a long future with the Traditional Cat Association, Inc." (Laurie)

We thank you again for your interest and support. 

...Thank you for taking time with me and responding to a stranger in a kind manner, a unique attribute in these times. It has helped me better understand and cope with the loss of my friend.

"I continue to educate people when ever possible about the Traditional Siamese and the history of TCA.  People find it fascinating!  I am amazed myself at what a great service you have done for the Siamese breed. I have helped a few people get started with their new catteries and have even helped a woman who belonged to CFA for years.  She told me recently that there is no comparison, that TCA feels so much friendlier and supportive.  She feels like she really can get excited about her cattery for the first time!  I think it helps people to do things right when their cattery and kittens are registered with TCA and when they have access to helpful people like yourself and your website."  (Nancy).

I remember talking with Diana years ago...we apreciate all you have done in teh last 20 years.  Your care and dedication is Wonderful.  After 35 years, we are still a 2 Siamese Cat family...we now have our 4th Coco, adn 5th Tiki.  All have lived long and happy indoor lives. (Donna & JP)

"... I appreciate everything you have done, and I am very happy and PROUD to be a member of TCA!!!!!" (Laurie)

Thank you.  I'm constantly impressed by your organization, and will be a TCA member for life! (Kelli)

"Wow!  Your organization amazes me!  You are SO FRIENDLY!  How awesome. I want to be a part of this!! I have sent a photo of one of my girls.  Isn't she a pretty thing?  She will be switched from CFA to TCA.  Thank you for being so nice! All the best.  (Vicki)

Thank you so much for your generous support toward us.  We are very grateful.  You really have helped make us what we are and this is actually the first time I have really noticed that.  I would like to add you two (John & Diana) to the list of thanks to our support staff.  You really do stand behind your breeders and support us in everything we do as long as we adhere to being good, loving, responsible breeders and I wonder what other association can say that. Chantel

I am so impressed with you and your efforts.  I think you have made a difference in forwarding the breeding of Purebred cats.  I think we need to do this to carry on the attributes and differences of each breed. And I know John has been a big help in this effort.  Sharon.

"Tell your husband that I appreciate the Newsletter and all the work the two of you do for this organization.  I am so pleased I joined TCA, INC. last year. Diana is wonderful. Even though I have been registered with CFA and UFO, TCA is tops." Sylvia
