TICA, The International Cat Association, is the International Cat Association. With the world’s largest genetic registry of breed cats and the largest number of registered domestic cats, TICA is the first and largest association in the world to allow non-breed cats to compete and win titles. It is dedicated to promoting the reliable breeding of purebred cats, preserving the uniqueness of each breed, and ensuring predictable appearance and character in offspring.
Headquartered in Harlingen, Texas, USA, TICA manages hundreds of cat shows in 104 countries each year. Currently, TICA recognizes 63 cat breeds, including the historic Abyssinian cat as well as newer breeds such as the wolf cat, lion cat and leopard cat.
