In 1960, a small group of Canadians gathered to explore the possibility of forming a Canadian registry for purebred felines. Before this event, all registrations had to be filed in the United States or Europe and all cat shows held in Canada were held under the rules of American associations. The intent of the founding members is expressed in the Letters Patent of the Association: To promote the welfare of all the cats in Canada, to further the improvement of all breeds of cats in Canada and to maintain a registry of purebred cats. 1, record 1, English, - Canadian%20Cat%20Association

En 1960, un petit groupe d’éleveurs canadiens se rassemblaient pour explorer la possibilité de former une association féline pour gérer la félinophilie au Canada et pour créer un Livre d’origine pour les chats de race pure. Auparavant, toutes les demandes d’enregistrements devaient être acheminées aux États-Unis ou en Europe et toutes les expositions félines présentées au Canada étaient tenues sous l'égide d’associations américaines et selon leurs règlements. Les buts que se proposaient les membres fondateurs sont bien énoncés dans les lettres patentes de l'association : promouvoir le bien-être de tous les chats au Canada, améliorer les races félines et tenir un registre des origines félines. 1, record 1, French, - Association%20f%C3%A9line%20canadienne
