You have reached the website of the International Havana Brown Society, also refereed to as IHBS. We are  a Cat Fanciers' Association affiliated breed club organized in 1974 devoted to the Havana Brown. 

The objectives of the International Havana Brown Society are: 

1. To promote interest in, provide a better knowledge of, and  improve the   Havana Brown breed of cat.
   

2. To encourage the restrained breeding of the Havana Brown to the Standard of our parent organization - CFA. 
   

3. To  sponsor shows for the exhibition of cats, primarily designed to foster the interests of breeders and exhibitors, and to otherwise, through the use of all means at our disposal, to advance this cause.
   

4. To promote the welfare of all cats.
   

5. To cultivate sentiments of friendship and common interest amongst Havana Brown fanciers worldwide.
