Feline Control Council of Victoria

The Feline Control Council of Victoria (FCCV) is a long-established, member-focused cat association dedicated to promoting the welfare and standards of domestic cats across Victoria. Founded in 1962 and based in Bayswater, FCCV works to raise feline standards through education, responsible breeding practices, advocacy, and community engagement. The council supports breeders and enthusiasts by providing breed information and guidelines, encouraging ethical practices and good sportsmanship among members. FCCV organises and oversees cat shows and events that showcase different breeds and standards — for example, the March Madness Show listed for 22 March 2026 — and helps coordinate the exhibition side of the local cat community. The organisation also maintains regular communications with members and the public via its website and social media, offering news, event updates and resources. FCCV collaborates with sponsors and affiliated organisations, including veterinary and pet care companies, to support its initiatives and events. Overall, FCCV presents itself as a community-driven body focused on feline welfare, breeder education, promotion of breed standards, and the organisation of major cat shows and related activities for cat owners, breeders and enthusiasts in Victoria.
