South West British Shorthair Cat Club

On the 26th November 2005 the South West British Shorthair Cat Club held its inaugural meeting which was attended by a group of breeders and owners dedicated to the British Shorthair breed.

​

The aims and purposes of our club are:

• To encourage and promote interest and understanding in the welfare, breeding and exhibiting of the British Shorthair

• To support shows for the exhibiting of all cats

• To provide the means for people interested in the breed and its welfare to meet together and discuss ideas and exchange useful information

​

We gained our affiliation to the GCCF in the Autumn of 2009 and then held our first show in 2011. We now hold a Championship Show here in the South West every year. Visit our News & Events page to find details of our next show.

​

We now have over 50 members and are always happy to welcome more - although based in the South West we welcome members from across the country and our membership currently includes British Shorthair lovers and breeders in Wales, the Midlands, London and Surrey.
