Cat Breeders Victoria

As an Applicable Organisation, RPBA members residing in VIC receive reduced local council animal registration fees, and their animals are exempt from local council desexing orders.

In addition to this, breeding members (termed recreational breeders) receive exemptions from domestic animal business requirements under the DA Act.

For more information, you can refer to the Agriculture Victoria website.

If you’re on the lookout for a kitten from a breeder you can genuinely trust, this is where your search starts to come together. Below you’ll find a list of cat breeders across Victoria who have joined Responsible Pet Breeders Australia: a group that sets the bar a little higher when it comes to how animals are raised, treated, and rehomed.

Whether you’re based in bustling Melbourne, a leafy suburb, or a slower corner of regional VIC, you’ll find RPBA members scattered right across the state. And every breeder listed here has made a clear commitment to raise their cats with care, stick to fair practices, and follow Victoria’s breeding laws down to the detail.

We always recommend doing a bit of homework before picking a breeder. Check their member number through our verification tool, ask to see where the cats are kept, and have a chat about how they raise and socialise their kittens. A good breeder won’t shy away from these conversations. In fact, they’ll probably welcome them.

When you adopt through an RPBA member in Victoria, you’re not just taking home a cat. You’re backing better standards, more transparency, and a support system that exists to make responsible cat breeding the norm.
