We are going to the cat show May 9th in Fresno.
We will decide after if it will be Cleos last show.
Here are the pics from last weekend.

Thanks
People kept asking if she is a boy or girl.
All her things are pink.
My sister will be coming to the next show because she lives in Fresno.
Sherry blast off girl came and saw Cleo in person for the first time.

What a nice show set up. Cleo really looks good on pink. She looks very relaxed, like she's already an old pro at showing.

Thanks for sharing your photos! She really does look like she is totally at ease. She is such a cutie! I've been thinking about showing our Sphynx in HHP just for fun, but I'm not sure he has the right personality for it. Thanks for sharing your experience at the show! It's really neat to read the perspective of someone who is new to showing.

Good luck in Fresno!

Thanks Everyone,
Is he black and white also?Is he registered with Cfa or Tica?
All the brown spotted cats were winning everthing in HHP.
There were no Russian Blues there.
I would love to enter Sasha in HHP but that will never happen because she would go crazy.

Yes, Sprout is black and white. We don't have any papers on him, which is why I'd have to show him in HHP if I wanted to try it. I am worried he might get too anxious though; I can envision him yeowling non-stop if I put him in a show cage for hours. I wish I could show my Raggies in HHP, but their breeder does not want me to.
I have been thinking about possibly getting a cat to show, but I am not sure yet. I am going to go to an ACFA show in May as a spectator, just to check things out and learn a bit. I'm excited to see all the different breeds!

I will not keep showing Cleo if she does bad at the shows.
I told her breeder I would only try few shows and stop if she does bad.
I do not want to do anything that makes him look bad.
I do plan on getting a show quality sphynx this year once I learn more about showing.
There were so many Persians there.

She looks adorable Jacky!!!

I have already decided that if Zee does not do well this weekend I will not show him again. I just dont want to stress him or myself out if he ends up not being quite what the judges want to see.

She looks GREAT in pink!
Would you happen to know if there's a website or somewhere I could go to see if there will be any cat shows in Chicago? I would LOVE to attend one but I don't know if Chicago ever has any...

Anita isnt Zees breeder going to be there?
You are lucky you live near her.
There were breeders bad mouthing each other.
The show mgr loaned me a sheet then another breeder said terrible things about her.
Everyone was nice to us.
The guy with the 2nd best siamese in the country is nice.

You can't really measure how good your cat is from one or two shows. Just remember that.


Next time you should take some pics of the Persians!

I agree, judges opinions can vary greatly. Cat that wins everything one show, can get nothing in the next.

I would not quit is she doesn't do much in the 2nd show. If the cat enjoys the rings, I usually show them at least 1/2 the season or the entire season to decide how good they are.
