The following is a list of minority cat breeds that do not have the recognition of major national or international cat registries, such as The International Cat Association (TICA) in the U.S., Europe, and Australasia, the Governing Council of the Cat Fancy (GCCF) in the U.K., the Fédération Internationale Féline (FiFE) in Europe, or the Cat Fanciers Association (CFA) in the U.S., but are recognized by one of the smaller cat registries. Smaller registries include the Rare & Exotic Feline Registry (REFR), The Dwarf Cat Association (TDCA), the New South Wales Cat Fancier Association (NSWCFA) in Australia, and others.

abstract	The following is a list of minority cat breeds that do not have the recognition of major national or international cat registries, such as The International Cat Association (TICA) in the U.S., Europe, and Australasia, the Governing Council of the Cat Fancy (GCCF) in the U.K., the Fédération Internationale Féline (FiFE) in Europe, or the Cat Fanciers Association (CFA) in the U.S., but are recognized by one of the smaller cat registries. Smaller registries include the Rare & Exotic Feline Registry (REFR), The Dwarf Cat Association (TDCA), the New South Wales Cat Fancier Association (NSWCFA) in Australia, and others. Some minority breeds actively seek major recognition but have yet to receive it; for example, in regions where cat fancying is in its infancy, naturally occurring native varieties can be classified as a minority until they are fully developed into a formal breed. Others are bred for private reasons and inadvertently attract an informal following. Minority breeds may be recognized by "paper registries" or not at all; major recognition can be refused for a variety of reasons (including over-similarity to an existing breed). Some may have Preliminary Status and experimental standards already in place, but turn out to be non-viable. Discrepancies between breed names can often cause confusion; occasionally the name adopted by one registry is used elsewhere for an entirely different breed; for example the breed known in Australia as "Burmilla Longhair" is analogous to the "Tiffanie" in Britain, but Australia already has a quite different breed known as the "Australian Tiffanie" and both are different from the American "Tiffany" (also known as the Chantilly-Tiffany cat). Such conflicts are decreasing due to better communication between registries, largely facilitated by the World Cat Congress and the internet.
