Notes
Note

Pink is used as the background colour to tie in with the Animalia category in the Tree of Life WikiProject.

The second-from-bottom table cell is for links to the external sites' pages for the cat breed standards.

The bottom table cell is for notes on the breed (i.e. Breed in developement, cross registration, etc.)

The following generic links for the breed registries are a good starting point for finding the URLs for each breed.

|[1], [2], [3], [4], ACF, [5], [6]

Note: the GCCF and FIFe don't have their standards on their home pages. GCCF standards may be found on individual breed club pages; see GCCF affiliated clubs. The FIFe standards don't seem to be currently available online. TICA standards can be difficult to find because they are .pdf files, and the search function on the TICA homepage doesn't find them.

Other independent organizations with separate breed standards should be in a final section of the article titled "External Links".
