Just thought I would share with you all, I got my TICA prefix through today so TALLICA is now officially registered with TICA & GCCF

Now I just need to wait a bit to use it!!!

Hi Everyone

I know this an old thread but thought it saves opening a new one.

I want to apply for a prefix nut need to wait 12 months for the GCCF one (unless anyone knows a club that will sign early for Birmans??)

If I apply for a Tica prefix now do my cats need to be Tica registered and is this awkward to do as they are both with GCCF at the moment.

Also how on earth do you all think of prefix names??

Just as I think i've found one I like I google it and someone else has got it first!!

Need to try and think of something unique but i'm useless lol

You can apply for both a TICA prefix and a GCCF one - but you will need to register your queens with TICA if they're not already registered with them, otherwise you won't be able to register your future kittens. It's not difficult - you just need your GCCF pink slip and a copy of the pedigree, and you send it over to TICA and they send you the necessary bits and pieces back.

Hi All,

Question on Prefixes. How does the GCCF decide if a Prefix choice is adequately different to an already existing prefix?

Is there a set number of letters difference that is required? Or if it about the sound of a prefix name?

I've come up with a few different ideas but then I check the list of registered prefixes and occasionally there is something similar but different already in existance. Not sure how close you can be.

Any thoughts?

Thanks xx
