TCCI CATTERY INSPECTION INSTRUCTIONS

I. Cattery Owner

It is the obligation of the cattery owner to request inspection forms and to provide the name , address and phone number of the inspecting Veterinarian. The TCCI secretary will then send the inspection forms directly to the inspecting Veterinarian. A completed cattery inspection form MUST BE RECEIVED by the Traditional and Classic Cat International (TCCI) office DIRECTLY from the inspecting Veterinarian, after the inspection is completed.

TCCI requires a rotation of Veterinarians so the same Veterinarian is NOT consistently used year after year. To facilitate this process, please provide the inspector with the enclosed pre-addressed, postage paid envelope and your check or money order in the amount of $25.00 payable to TCCI.

II. Inspecting Veterinarians

Thank you for participating in this program, Traditional and Classic Cat International is relying on your professionalism to ensure only those deserving, high quality catteries receive cattery approval ratings. If, for any reason, you feel a cattery does not meet the minimum standards specified on the inspection form, then please annotate the appropriate areas(s) as "unacceptable." We request you do not pass any totally outdoor cattery (no shelter, no weather protection) or a cattery with cats and/or kittens exhibiting signs of poor condition or contagious disease.

Inspectors must be licensed veterinarians in the state in which the inspection is conducted. Inspecting Veterinarians can be active breeders, or participants of TCCI.

Please ensure the owner(s) of the inspected cattery provide you with the complete inspection form, a check or money order for $25.00 made payable to TCCI and a self-addressed, stamped envelope for you to mail the completed inspection form to TCCI.
Inspections not mailed by the inspecting veterinarian will not be accepted.
