Hi everybody,

I'm just about to post a thread in the Breeders corner about how my kitten did on the weekend but I thought I would post the photos here so everyone could enjoy them. I think I ended up with 180 photos but since I don't like using the flash at the show, many of them weren't good so I narrowed them down. I hope you enjoy them!
my Nana and I took 2 cats and 2 kittens to the show.

Firstly photos of my kitten 'Captivating Telling Tales' - "Tales" she's 5 months old and she is a Blue Silver Tabby Harlequin female Exotic.











I tried to get her rosettes in the photo but I covered the 2nd Best in Show Rosette!

Here they are on my wall (excuse the cat in the photo, that's her 1/2 brother Bart but they are actually Tale's ribbons!)




Tales THIRD Breeders award of merit from her THIRD show. Her brother also won me one so that's four from the one litter so far and Bart (The cat in the photo above and Fluffy won me 3 between them at the end of last year) so that's 7 in 8 months!

Here is 'Champion Captivating Sweet Escape' or "Fluffy", who is a Red Tabby Bicolour Persian female - 13 months old.

In a way we sort of had a 5th cat at the show. They have displays and photos of each breed and they use my 9.5 year old neuter every year, except the picture is of him when he was just one year old, so here's Silver Double Grand Premier Captivating Tickle Me Elmo!

Tale's Daddy was at the show his name is "Bronze Double Grand Champion Grafton For Your Consideration - he is a Blue Silver tabby bicolour male Exotic. We call him Con.


Con being brushed by Nana

Nana's kitten is called Wildfire Starlight Express or Twinkle, she did the best out of our babies at the show. I prefer Tales though!
Her head is much rounder.



Twinkle being judged





A kitten that Nana bred was at the show her name is Grafton Hot Fuzz or Lottie, she's the same colour as Elmo - a red tabby bicolour.

The first time Turkish Angora's have been on exhibition at a show. They were so devine.

Now onto some photos of the SH's. Which I know you've all been dying to see!


Meet Molly - she's a 4th generation Seal Burmese. Her coat just doesn't show it! Isn't she gorgeous. She cleans everything up at the shows. She's not in the pedigree section, but in the companion section.

I love the Bengals and that Caramel Siamese.
I also love the Russian Blue.
The sphynx was there (a couple I believe) but I didn't get any photos of them sorry, Jacky. Thought you would like the Russian though!

Tales is so full of energy. I think in the full 10 hours that we were at the show, she was asleep once for about 5 mins. She loves people!

Thanks everybody - replying means a lot to me!

Aw, Sam. Looks like you and your Nana did a great job at the show! Your kits are beautiful, as usual. I like the Norwegian Forest cat and the BSH as well. However, you know which of the other cats (besides yours) is my favorite, don't you? The Black Persian boy, Cars. He's bee-yoo-tee-ful!

Cars is lovely! He's a 1/2 brother to a boy I used to own "Pepperbox Moon Bear" Don't know if you were lurking when I had him?? He was a stunner, now my Uncle has him on his farm. I'm not a huge fan of black cats!

Yes, I remember him! He was my favorite of your brood. It's ok if you aren't particularly fond of black cats. We all have our flaws.
