The FCCQ Inc. was first established in 1965 and is the oldest cat council in Queensland.
Listed elsewhere are the Clubs affiliated with FCCQ Inc. together with their contact telephone numbers.
Our shows are held once a month and are open to the public to come and meet the breeders and view all the different breeds of cats.
A code of ethics is issued to all new breeders to enable them to properly house and feed their cats which are of assistance to all in the management and breeding of cats. The FCCQ Inc. Council meets monthly and consists of an executive plus delegates from each cat club affiliated with the FCCQ Inc. making up our Management Committee The delegates bring matters of concern from their respective clubs and these are discussed and action is taken if required.
Elections are held annually by secret ballot with all FCCQ Inc financial members having the right to have their say by electing the office bearers with the exception of The Registrar who is appointed by the executive. Each club also casts a vote for the election of the executive positions.
The FCCQ Inc main objective is to promote responsible cat ownership for both family pets and the breeding of pedigree cats

Annual General Meeting
All FCCQ members are warmly invited to attend the AGM at 7.30 p.m. on Friday 2 July 2010 at the Nundah Historical Society Rooms, 1A Bage Street, Nundah (behind the Nundah Library). The full agenda can be accessed on the forms page
Notice of Special Resolutions
Two special resolutions will be considered at the meeting. The first is to amend clause 48 of the constitution (Financial year) to read: “THE END DATE OF THE ASSOCIATION’S FINANCIAL YEAR IS 31 DECEMBER IN EACH YEAR” rather than “30 April in each year”. This will bring the financial year into line with the show year. For 2010–11, membership paid by 1 July 2010 will provide membership to 31 December 2011 (i.e. 18 months membership for the usual 12‑month fee).
The second special resolution is “TO DELETE CLAUSE 18(3) OF THE CONSTITUTION”. This clause requires that Council delegates attend at least 70 per cent of management committee meetings each year and automatically removes delegates who do not attend three consecutive meetings. Deleting this clause will bring the Council in line with all other incorporated associations using the Model Rules, i.e. delegates absent from three consecutive meetings without apology may be removed from the committee.
As there is only one nomination for any office-bearer position, no postal ballot of members will be necessary this year.
