Registering Your CFA KittenHow to Complete a Cat Fancier's Association Kitten Registration Form
Instructions on how to fill out a kitten blue slip if your kitten is CFA registered, including tips on how to properly name your purebred kitten.
Kitten Blue SlipWhen you purchase a kitten that is registered through the Cat Fanciers Association, you will receive a blue slip from the breeder that you fill out and mail in to the CFA along with the registration fee. You should only have to complete sections A and C. The CFA will have completed section B for you, and the breeder completes section D.

Section C should be filled in with your own name and address. Breeding Rights?If you are buying the kitten for breeding purposes, a PIN must be in the red box.
