About the Vantastix Turkish Van Breed Club
Welcome to the Vantastix Cat Club home on the web!!
We are the oldest Turkish Van breed club in the United States and now
have members from across the globe! Vantastix is proud to be a Cat Fanciers
Association (CFA) member club.
Who We Are - Club Objectives
- To promote the traditional, van patterned native Turkish longhaired cat known worldwide since 1955 as the Turkish Van at cat shows and other public events, on the Internet and in the media.
- To encourage the selective breeding to the CFA standard of purebred Turkish Van cats, the use of CFA-allowable Turkish Van imports, and the accurate registration of all Turkish Vans.
- To actively participate in CFA sanctioned events and shows, and to sponsor rosettes, rings and rallies to promote interest in and knowledge of Turkish Vans through breed literature, slide or video shows, or breed booths at CFA sponsored shows.
- To cultivate friendship, common interest, and international understanding among the members, clubs with similar goals and purposes, and Turkish Van breeders, owners, and fanciers worldwide.
- To publish a quarterly newsletter printing news, views, issues, answers, and proposals as dictated or submitted by members or other interested parties.
- To advance in any way possible the interests of breeders and exhibitors and to promote the welfare of all cats.
- To promote the health, welfare, and humane treatment of the Turkish Vans through responsible pet ownership and breeding, and through support to groups that assist or rescue Turkish Vans in need.
- To mentor new breeders, exhibitors, and others interested in the cat fancy.
With the establishment of the World Wide web, we strongly feel that our goals can be helped by this marvelous electronic form of communication. If you agree with the objectives above and own a CFA registerable Turkish Van, we would love for you to apply for membership!! Come join us!!
