Welcome to the website of the National Fox
& Tan Cavy Club. The UK's newest
specialist cavy club, catering for all the
recoginsed colours of the Fox, Tan &
Otter Cavy.
The aim of the club is to promote the keeping,
breeding and showing of these breeds along
with providing enjoyment to its members through
club shows & events, newsletters and
of course this website.
The Fox & Tan breeds were introduced
to the Cavy Fancy in 2000, at the Bradford
Championship Show, and they have never looked
back. They were received very well and quickly
established themselves as one of the leading
Rare Variety breeds on show. The breeds followed
their roots and attained their highest honours
to date at the Bradford Championship Shows
of 2005, 2006 & 2007 when a Tan and two
Foxes respectively won the title of Best
Rare Variety.
In January 2008 the breeds took another massive
leap and attained Full Standard Status and
are now competing for the title of overall
Best In Show. At the same time the Otter
Cavy was awarded Guide Standard status and
is already competing well in Rare Variety
classes.
