Summarize the following:
If you have a pedigreed cat or dog, you'll have a registration certificate issued by the pedigree association. For cats, this may be a "blue slip" from the Cat Fanciers' Association (CFA). Pedigreed dogs in the United States are registered with the American Kennel Club (AKC). Registration certificates are organized similar to car titles. There are boxes on the back of the certificate that you can use to transfer registration of your pet from yourself to a new owner. Make sure you provide a complete mailing address for the new owner. This is the address the pedigree association will use to mail the new owner a new certificate. Dogs may require a supplemental transfer form. This is usually the case if the dog has had more than 2 registered owners. The new owner may not have to sign the registration certificate for the transfer. However, you must sign it as the old owner. After signing it, make a copy for your own records. The procedure for dogs is slightly different. There is another section of transfer information that must be completed and signed by the new owner. The new owner then sends the certificate to the AKC. Beneath the boxes for transfer information on the back of the certificate, you'll find the address where you need to send the certificate. The pedigree association will send a new certificate to the new owner. Include a check or money order for the transfer fees. These fees are typically around $20 or $30. Check the website of the pedigree association to find up-to-date fee information.
Locate the pet's registration certificate. Fill in the transfer information on the back of the certificate. Sign the certificate as the old owner. Mail the certificate to the pedigree association.
