Pairodocs
Turkish Van Show Results

Karen Hooker is our Record Keeper

Since our first litters of Turkish Vans, Pairodocs cats have been actively shown in The International Cat Association and the Cat Fanciers Association. While we don't have the time or energy to show as extensively as we used to (for which our cats are probably thankful!), we are pleased with the recognition that our cats have received over the years. The results of these efforts are detailed below. You can see photos and read the profiles of several of these cats in the "Meet the Cats" section of this site.

Cat Fanciers Association (CFA)

Pairodocs was instrumental in helping the Turkish Van to gain advancement to championship status in CFA in 1994. We showed the majority of the cats that were required for the breed to be recognized during the preceeding 6-year period that they were in the Miscellaneous and Provisional classes. CFA awards the title of Grand Champion and Grand Premier.

The International Cat Association (TICA)

We have been showing in TICA since 1988, when we acquired our first Turkish Vans. The breed has been recognized in this association since 1984. TICA's showing system is incremental, allowing multiple titles from Grand Champion to Supreme Grand Champion, each representing an increasing degree of difficulty.
