Open main menu EditWatch this page List of cat breeds Page issues The following list of breeds includes domestic cat breeds and domestic × wild hybrids. The list includes established breeds recognized by various cat registries, new and experimental breeds, distinct domestic populations not being actively developed, and lapsed breeds. As of 2016, the International Progressive Cat Breeders Alliance (IPCBA) recognizes 73 cat breeds while The International Cat Association (TICA) recognizes 58, the Cat Fanciers' Association (CFA) recognizes 44, and Fédération Internationale Féline (FIFe) recognizes 43.[1][unreliable source] Inconsistency in breed classification among registries means that an individual animal may be considered different breeds by different registries. For example, TICA's Himalayan is considered a colorpoint version of the Persian by CFA, while CFA's Javanese is considered a color variation of the Balinese by TICA. The domestic short-haired and domestic long-haired cat types are not breeds but terms used (with various spellings) in the cat fancy to describe cats of a general type, by coat length, that do not belong to a particular breed.
