This Yahoo!Group is set up to be a discussion group only for the members of Oriental Shorthairs of America, Inc. (OSA). The club also has a public website ( http://OSAClub.org ) open to all.

*You must be a member of OSA to participate on this list.* Membership will be confirmed. Please see our public website if you are interested in applying for membership.

This list is intended to be a low volume list for meeting announcements, and OSA general club business. This list is not intended to replace the plethora of general discussion lists for Oriental cats currently in place.

Oriental Shorthairs of America, Inc. (OSA) is one of the largest registered clubs of the Cat Fanciers Association (CFA) and is a non-profit organization. It exists to promote and support Orientals, as well as the welfare of cats in general. Our club has business meetings four times a year which are announced in the club minutes and/or the the club newsletter, "Tails of the Orient". In addition, the meetings will be posted in the "CALENDAR" section. Email reminders will be sent automatically to all members of this group. Minutes of the meetings can be found in the "FILES" section.

Web and PDF versions of the latest "Tails of the Orient" can be found in the "FILES" section. Tables for members to list their new grands, litters, and DM's can be found under the "DATABASE" section. If your cattery has a web page, please add it in the "LINKS" section!

Suggestions of other things which will make this a useful resource to club members are welcome!!!
