Cattery Registration
I wish to register my cattery name with IPCBA.  I understand the fee for registration is a one time charge only and the name approved will be for my exclusive use or for the use of those additionally named as co-owners.  I agree to abide by the rules and regulations of IPCBA as pertaining to catteries.
