How We Met
I was left at the Vet's office for adoption and when Mom came in to pick up Revolution for her cats she noticed me. I believe it was love at first sight for both of us.

My Cat Blog
Molokai
Serene seascapes, unspoiled coastlines, untamed wilderness. We visit Molokai & travel back to a timeless place. This is an island that stays true to its Hawaiian traditions - tucked away from the hustle of the outside world; where no building is taller than a coconut tree; there’s no traffic & no traffic lights; where you can feel the power of Hawaiian culture from an area near Maunaloa, said to be the birthplace of hula, to the natural wonders of Halawa Valley.
Molokai is only 38 miles long and 10 miles across at its widest point. It is a friendly & family-oriented island that has deep connections with its Hawaiian ancestors. Unlike the visitor industry on the larger Hawaiian Islands, Molokai has preserved its true Hawaiian culture. More than one third of this island's residents have over 50% Hawaiian blood. Molokai residents farm, fish, hunt & gather many of their basic needs & they enjoy this lifestyle. Here we need to slow down, be less demanding, & respect the Molokai way of life. Molokai is the real deal. We are visiting the true Hawaii. We will enjoy & respect Molokai & her people.
Lining the northeast coast are the towering cliffs of the North Shore Pali. At 3,600 to 3,900 feet from sea base to top, they are the tallest sea cliffs in the world; their near-vertical plunge ends 2000 feet below sea level. We step cautiously to the edge to peek over. Whoa, that’s a drop! Later in the day, we do some ocean kayaking along the face of the cliffs; this is amazing beyond belief! We also discover secret, secluded beaches, sea birds, & cascading waterfalls which provide incredible, photogenic scenery
We then hike into the East End’s classic cathedral valley to see Hawaii back in time. It is believed ancient Polynesians settled in lush Halawa Valley as early as 650 AD. This area, half a mile wide and three to four miles deep, and blessed with beautiful vistas and towering waterfalls, is one of the island's most historic areas. Roughly two miles up the trail is the impressive, double-tiered 250-foot Moa’ula Falls. If you’re considering taking a dip into the pool, drop a ti leaf into the water first. Hawaiian legend says that a giant moo (lizard) lives at the bottom of the pool. If the ti leaf sinks, the moo is in no mood for visitors. If the ti leaf floats, it’s safe to enter. Our ti leaves are forming a veritable flotilla, and we slip gratefully into the refreshing pool. Soon we are splashing and playing like … well, kitties.
We have been invited to a luau by the residents of a small village near Maunaloa, birthplace of the hulu. After dining on succulent roast pig, and all the tasty side dishes, we are given grass skirts to put on for a hula lesson. Soon we are dancing and telling the stories of the island, looking almost like natives.
Tomorrow we will head for the island of Oahu, where our Hawaiian adventure will eventually finish.Come visit me, Q. Cherish - COTM March 2012.

ya know
what a sappy nose and teary eyes means? not only is the weather gonna change but janet's allergies are acting up and she can't take anything for them which isn't expensive as one called zyrtec is just that and she knows it works, just doesn't have the $$$ especially when both prescriptions come due, although one will run out by payday next week the other won't run out till the following sunday so both will come in around the sametime. she might get one this week and one next therefore split the cost as one is $4 and the other $15. sports day tomorrow/friday. sandy, ana,haley,angelsCome visit me, ana, haley, malachi is my boyfriend! whiskerscotm & sandy, angels, vote whiskers cotm!.

HI Greycee Mist
Day 30
Thank you for stopping by and pushing my votey button. You are the best furriends ever. I can’t believe we are already at the end of the month. I hope you enjoyed my catpaign. Here are my furriends and their rankings. I saw Gromit get her giant rosette at the Del Mar show. I am currently ranked at 38 but I don’t go to many shows and I need to place in those shows. These kitties go to most of the shows and always place. They are use to being in the shows, some have been going for years. Go to cfaswhhp.org, Past HHP winners, 2011-2012 to see their pictures. They are so pretty. Some were found on the streets, some were rescued at local shelters or rescue groups. Gromit was found in a back yard She is the oldest kitty showing.

high pressure over us, we're not gonna get much if any-thing this week or into wednesday of next week and temps into the lower to mid 70s so all in all it's going to be downright lovely outside! we can't complain as the windows in some rooms will be open, while others will be closed as it's still on the cold/cool side for mommy and master who like it into the upper 70s to mid 80s where it's comfor-table for them. sandy,ana,haley,angelsCome visit me, ana, haley, malachi is my boyfriend! whiskerscotm & sandy, angels, vote whiskers cotm!.

HI Greycee Mist
Day 28
Thank you for coming by and pushing my votey button . You are the very best furriends a kitty could ask for.
“Most cats, when they are Out want to be In, and vice versa, and often simultaneously.” Dr Louis J Camuti
“Any cat who misses a mouse pretends it was aiming for the dead leaf.” Charlotte Gray.
“If your cat falls out of a tree, go indoors to laugh.” Patricia Hitchcock.
“They come to sit on the table by the writer, keeping his thoughts company, and gazing at him with intelligent tenderness and magical penetration. It seems as though cats divine the thought that is passing from the brain to the pen, and that as they stretch out a paw, they are trying to seize it on its way.” Theophile Gaautier in his memoirs of Beaudelaire

HI Greycee Mist
Day 26
Thank you for all your votes. I am so excited. We are almost done with the month. I am one special little kitty.
Today is my Sister Callie’s first year Crossing Anniversary. She was so special. I knew when mom first rescued me I had to get Callie’s approval. I knew she was the boss. MOL
Now that we have talked about CFA Shows and TICA Shows I just don’t know what else to meow about. I am going to another CFA Show but we need to decide which ones. More traveling in the car. MOL In case I didn’t tell you, you can’t wear a collar at the show. Some rescues have a collar on and we let them know they need to take the collar off when they get put in the judges cage. At the CFA shows, we always cheer for all the kitties getting a rosette in the household pet category. We are the noisy bunch. MOL
I think I will leave some Cat Quotations. We are smarter than humans but they just don’t know it. Hehe
“The cat has been described as the most perfect animal, the acme of muscular perfection and the supreme example in the animal kingdom of the co-ordination of mind and muscle.” Roseanne Ambrose-Brown
“Poets generally love cats-because poets have no delusions about their own superiority.” Marion Garretty
Have a catriffic day and get lots of mom and dad time.

Hi Greycee Mist
Day 25
Thank you for coming by and leaving a vote. I am so happy you take time with your busy schedule to come by my page. You are all the best.
I don’t know about you but I think TICA sounds a little scary to me. I know some of you show in TICA and are use to it. I don’t know if could have judges looking and judging me like a purebred. I think my cuteness does pretty good for me . MOL
How many of you go to TICA shows and how many to CFA shows? Do you have to travel far and do you like the car? Mom is lucky we all don’t mind the car. We even go to stores with mom after we go to the vet. I don’t mind but sometimes I just want to be home. Right now I’m on the couch with mom writing up my blog. MOL
I have a question of the day. How many of you like to travel in a car? My sister Angel Callie loved to ride in a car. She always had to look out the window. I just like to relax and watch mom. So does Smokey and Angel. Angel Sassy didn’t like the car at all.
Have a catriffic day. Enjoy lots of mom and dad time.

Hi Greycee Mist
Day 23
Thank you for pushing my votey button. I appreciate you stopping by my page and all your support.
As you can tell, CFA is judges choice in finals for household pets and in TICA the household pets are judged by the same rules as purebreds.
I would be judged by color, markings, my fur. HMMM
Disqualifications. Biting three times. Surgically altering a cat for cosmetic purposes, examples are tail docking, prosthetic testicles, ear cropping, abnormalities not breed specific but rather occur in all cats. All or part of the tail missing except when board approved breed, having more or less than five toes on each front foot and four on each back foot unless proved to be a results of injury or as authorized by board approved standard. Polydactyls in any breed authorized approved standard shall be limited to no more than 7 toes on any foot. Undershot or overshot jaws or any malocclusion of the jaws, visible or invisible tail faults are disqualification at the discretion of the judge or as required by the board approved standard. Total blindness, inability to bear or support weight or walk normally, abnormal positioning of legs, feet while standing examples bowed or cow-hocked legs, splaying of the feet, or obvious toeing in or out of the feet. Small size not in keeping with the breed, inability to breathe normally with a closed mouth, abnormalities of the sternum.
Have a catriffic day and enjoy mom and day time.

HI Greycee Mist
The chirping cricket sounds like alot of fun. I do have some ice cream. I hope mom doesn't poop out. It's so hard to find good help.
Day 20
Thank you for all your support and stopping by and pressing my votey button. You are all so very special and it means so much to me that you stop by.
So have any of you looked for a show close to where you live yet? Are you going to send your mom or dad first to the show? Remember they can get all the information on how to show you at the shows website, or the flyer. You might even get showed without you knowing until it’s to late. Mom never tells me it’s almost time for a show. I figure it out by our outings to the stores then having my nails done and my bath. Mom you can’t fool me, I know. I just don’t know how far we have to travel.
Ok, now it’s time for all of us to find out about the TICA(The International Cat Association). Mom has the booklet with the show rules. I wonder if I will go to a TICA show.
All TICA shows are in Arcadia, Ca at least 2 ½ hour drive. SIGH I guess I am getting real good at traveling.
A kitten by definition is a feline under 8 calendar months of age. A Cat is a feline not less than 8 calendar months of age. Benched cats are cats, kittens, alters, and household pets present and qualified for an entire show. Registered cat a pedigree that has been filed with an Executive Office and assigned a registered number. A Recognized Breed is any recognized breeds of felines listed in the rules.
Wow this booklet is big. I’ll get you the information during the last 10 days of my catpaign and if we need more time during my reign.
Have a catriffic day. Enjoy mom and dad time

HI Greycee Mist
Day 19
Thank you for all your support and voting for me. I love it when you push my votey button. You all make me feel so special.
We have went through all my shows. Had ice cream at all the Hemet’s shows. I love the ice cream social don’t you? We have some of the back ground for the shows. I wonder if I left anything out? HMMMM
Oh yes, at the cat shows have you ever noticed that in spite of all the gorgeous, exotic and rare breeds being shown the largest crowds are with the household pets. We are all healthy, beautiful, some with special little head butts for the judges are everyone’s favorite. If you are friendly, not easily frightened, likes attention you too can be a show cat in the HHP category. We are a very special group of kitties. Some love to play with the judges, some head butt the judges, some play with the judges toys ( I don’t know why, a parrot feather or a little toy wand, please I like the better toys like my big feather wand or my catnip banana. The fling ama string is fun and the Da Bird is the best.
I know you have your favorite toys. Do you think you would play with some of those toys the judges have?
Mom goes to the vendors and gets the free samples for us and then look for my special toy in between our judging. There are a lot of cool toys and food/water bowls and other things. Some for our moms and dad and lots for us. I haven’t got a new kitty tree from one of the vendors or kitty bed but I did get a warm sack to crawl into. Yew gets one every time he comes to a kitty show and mom saw his. She got a warmer one for me and maybe next time I will get a cooler one.
Have a catriffic day and have lots of mom and dad time.

HI Greycee Mist
Day 18
Thank you for all your support. I really appreciate you stopping by and pressing my votey button.
Now a little something from the Pasadena show. For the first time not only did one person come by to ask how much mom wanted for me but two people asked. Mom said I’m not for sale. The second lady wasn’t convinced and kept asking mom and hanging around. She asked mom what kind of cat I was and she said a household pet. Mom had a feeling and didn’t want to say I am a Turkish Van at first. She said no what kind of cat. Mom said she believe I was a Turkish van and the lady said she knew that and they are very expensive cats. She asked again if I was for sale and mom said no. Mom knew if she had to use the litter box that the other mom’s and dad’s know who I belonged to and if someone tried to open my cage they would stop her. That lady showed up at one of the rings I was in and kept trying to ask the judge what kind of kitty is was but they don’t all answer questions when they are judging. Then when mom took me to go back to my benching cage the lady ask for me to go to a judge that was taking a break and she asked her what kind of kitty I was. The judge did say I looked and had the features of a Turkish van. Mom still said I wasn’t for sale. Can you believe she showed up again when I just left one ring for another after I won my rosette. We just couldn’t shake her. Mom said all the money in the world isn’t enough for me. I am one lucky kitty to have found my furever home.
I have heard at the Santa Monica show, which one day I will be attending has a lot of strange humans. One time some guy was dressed like a kitty and was trying to be a kitty. I heard some movie/tv stars go to that show with their family. I just hope nothing weird happens when I’m there. MOL

Day 17
Thank you for all your support and pawing by my votey button. I appreciate all the votes I’m getting.
Now I will tell you my rescue story. Mom went outside to put food out for the ferals. She went to the side of the garage to put some food for the tom cat. He waits there and some of the others are closer to the house. Mom put his food in his dish, he always stood by mom when she poured his food. Then all of a sudden 3 kittens came running out from between the shed and garage. We were so hungry. Mom looked at the tom cat and said this is new. He just stood and watched us. Mom said he was a very good kitty. Then mom went in to get a carrier but we scattered. The next day she caught one of my sibs then saw the other one, she was very shy between the garage and shed. She slowly put food down for her to eat then with the other hand caught her. She took her in and put her in the room with my brother. She never saw me, I wasn’t there. The next day she could here me, I was meowing but I was caught in the neighbors yard and it was a mess with a doggy barking at me at the end of a rope. Mom kneeled in the alley and pulled the fenced up. Put some food out and I came running. She was able to get me then took the food to the tom cat. I was with my sibs. We went to the vet and got deflead and got medicine for our ear infections. We were under weight and was 4-5 weeks old. My brother was only a 1lb and my sister and I was 2 lbs. When mom brought us out to the front room I knew this was my furever home. I even got on the couch to let Callie know I wanted to stay. I never got real close, I knew she didn’t like that. She looked at me then went to sleep. I knew I was in. Mommy found a home after one month for my sibs. They are together and inside kitties. The lady that adopted them was a vet tech that just moved to Oceanside, Ca It’s at least an hour away from where we live.
Have a catriffic day. Get lots of mom and dad time.

Hi Greycee Mist
Day 16
Thank you for all your support. I really appreciate you taking time out of your busy day to press my votey button.
The last show I was in was The Food and Water Bowl XXI, San Diego Cat Fanciers. Jan 26 & 27, 2013 Del Mar, Ca. I was up against 46 kitties. I did tell you I didn’t like the Del Mar show. It was only 45 minutes away. Since I didn’t final, I never do at Del Mar mom helped Scooby Doo’s dad. His mom couldn’t make it. Scooby was in the finals with one of both of his sibs. Mom took him to the judges cage and brought him back with his Rosette. I don’t mind mom touching my furriends. I know them and sometimes I’m by them at the judges cage.
One of my furriends from Arizona was even in a movie. He is a very pretty black kitty named Padraic. I can’t remember what movie he is in but it’s a mew one. I guess he was chosen when he was in the Santa Monica cat show in August in 2011. He is a true movie star and I know him. I get benched by him a lot.
One of my furriends goes to a adoption center to show people how purrfect adopting a cat is . I don’t remember which adoption center his mom volunteers at. It’s nice to show humans how great kitties are. When a kitty wins a rosette a lot of the judges like to hear their story of adoption/rescue. There are so many great stories. I got to tell my story 5 times. MOL
I bet you all have great stories to tell on how you got your furever home. Whether you are a purebred or a rescue you were chosen and that makes you all special.
Have a catriffic day. Have lots of mom and dad time.
Kitty kisses, hugs and purrs

HI Greycee Mist
Day 15
Thank you for all your support and pawing by my votey button. It’s so special that you come by my page. It truly means a lot to me. I can’t believe we are already half way through the month.
My next show was Opposites Attract Cat Club presents the first annual A-Cat-A-Me Awards in Pasadena, CA Sept 15, 2012 . Again 2 ½ hour drive one way and I was up against 23 kitties.
I won another rosette in my 4th ring. It was the same judge that gave me a rosette in the Hemet show a week before. He’s the one that tells the visitors that he chooses a kitty he would like to take home.
Now you know how I got my shelf. 5 rosettes I have on my shelf. If I get any more mom says she will think how she is going to display by rosettes. Hehe I have pictures of my rosettes and me around my shelf. Now everyone knows whose shelf it is.
Instead of a toy, mom bought me a kitty stroller. She always wanted one for Callie but they are real expensive. Those of you who have stroller might have paid $150.00. My stroller $90.00. It was a very hot day that day. It was 100 in Imperial Beach where we live and we were north and inland. A lot hotter 118. Mom said we will stop on the way home to eat. We usually drive straight through. I got to go into Denny’s. I just slept in my stroller. It was so nice to be with mom. No one said anything either. When I popped my head up to look out, I heard the lady in the booth behind us said oh a kitty, that is a kitty stroller. I have heard of those. Then a teenager walked by and gave a double take. I guess he never saw a kitty in a stroller before. MOL
Have a catriffic day and have lots of mom and dad time.
Kitty kisses, hugs and purrs

HI Greycee Mist
Day 14
Thank you for all your support. It is truly appreciate. Thank you for taking time to push my votey button. I love for all of you to come by every day.
The first four pages in my gallery is from some of the shows. The pictures of me on the carpet is right after a bath. I don’t take pictures of mom after her bath so I don’t know why she does that to me. Some of the pictures are in my benching cage, some in the judges cage, some are me with a few of the judges and one of my mew kitty stroller mom bought me at my next show I’m going to talk about later. I even have my own shelf at home. Mom put it up after my next show too. The two small red/white rosettes are the new merit rosettes we get at the Del Mar Shows. They usually hand out merit ribbons for household pets at the shows but the Del Mar shows we get the Rosettes in the first ring only.
So much to learn about isn’t there. I don’t mind. It’s an adventure. Everyone loves and adventure. OK Angel doesn’t she is a scaredy cat and so was Angel Sassy. Don’t let them know I told you. Hehe
I really don’t even mind the long trips. Most of the shows are at least 2 ½ hours one way. Mom and I are usually gone 15 hours but at least I can sleep. Mom puts on music and tries different stations for me. It’s so nice to be the center of attention.
So have any of you decided to be a show cat yet? Will you like the bath and getting your nails done? Having strangers handle you? I know some of you are ready to step into the ring.
Have a catriffic day and have lots of mom and dad time.
Kitty kisses

HI Greycee Mist
Day 13
Thank you for all your support and coming by to leave me a votey. You are all the best and I’m blessed that you take time out of your busy day to see me.
Ok some of you might have not like that fact that the show kitties get a bath. They get primped and blown dry. It can be scary. I know one day mom got out her hair dryer and I didn’t like the noise. I just watched mom and didn’t like her pointing the thing at me. My next show a judge told mom she should blow dry me after a bath so I can fluff up like a Persian. Mom said I don’t like a blow dryer but maybe if she finds a quiet blow dryer. I guess I will be getting a blow dryer. SIGH! I’ll see if I like it but I think mom is just throwing her money away. I don’t want to look like a Persian, if I did I would be a Persian. MOL
I don’t mind a bath. I have been real good for the groomer and now that mommy works again she gives me a bath. I do well for her too. I guess I shouldn’t have jumped in mom’s tub when it was full of water and swam a little before getting out. It just blew my cover liking water. One of my furriends mom gave a sample of shampoo she has for mom to try on me. It brings out the white in my furr. Mom used it on me for my last show. I did look shiny and pretty. I hope mom doesn’t find out. She might try it on me before I’m scheduled for another show.
Even after a bath, I’m a mama’s girl. I love to be close to mom. Even when she takes me to a show, after I come home use my litter box and eat, I go lay by mom. I guess I’m not to mad at her for dragging me to the shows.
Have a catriffic day. Get lots of mom and dad time.
Kitty kisses

Day 11
Thank you for all your support and coming by and hitting my votey button. I know you are all busy and I appreciate the time you take to come by my page.
At the cat shows litter is provided. I didn’t care for some of the litter so mom brings our litter. Some humans bring their own litter for their furbaby. Food samples are available at the show, or supplies may be available from one of the many vendors at the show.
Many people bring a small ice chest in which to keep open cans of food fresh. Their special treats is always nice to bring with you. A favorite pillow bed, favorite toy, or anything else to make your kitty feel more at home is nice to bring and set up in the benching cage.
You need to arrive at the show at least one hour before the show starts. You will need to set up the benching cage after you sign in and get your booklet and find out where you are benched. We arrive at least 1 ½ hours early for good parking and get set up. That way I can relax before the show starts.
If it’s a two day show, we don’t take down our things from the cage. We can come a little later because our benching cage is already set up. It makes it nice just to come and get in my cage. I really love my cage, all my things are in there. Then I get a mew toy from one of the vendors. Hehe Sometimes it’s nice to be shown.
Have a catriffic day. Enjoy lots of mom and dad time.

Day 10
Thank you for all your support. I really appreciate you hitting my votey button every day. It makes me so happy to see all you come by and meow to me.
I had told you of the two upcoming shows on the schedule so fair for the 2012-2013 season. Now the only shows scheduled for the 2013-2014 season are. Oct 5 Palm Springs and Dec 28-29 in Las Vegas Riviera Hotel. I know someday I’ll go to Las Vegas. I wonder if I’m old enough to gamble. Kitty needs more toys. MOL Shows are still being scheduled so that is why mom always tries to stay on top of it. OK sometimes she misses a show. Silly mommy.
In case you were wondering, the cage size is usually 36 inches wide, 24 inches deep and 27 inches high. One cat or two kittens are allowed per cage. Some shows have a “double cages” which are partitioned into two single cages. In this arrangement a single cage is 26 inches wide, 22 inches deep and 22 inches high. A double cage (extra charge) is 54 inches wide, 22 inches deep and 22 inches high. No more than one cat or two kittens may be benched in the same cage.
The cage covers must cover two sides and back. It is recommended that the top and bottom is covered as well.
The covering for the cage is to prevent your cat from seeing its neighbors. People who show regularly have spectacular curtains and decorations for their cages. I have a towel for my bottom of the cage but sometimes I just use an extra curtain to make my area extra fancy. MOL
Have a catriffic day. Enjoy lots of mom and dad time.

Day 9
Thank you for all your support and pushing my votey button. I am so happy so many kitties stop by my page. You are the best.
My next kitty show was Hemet Feline Fanciers presents Cats 2012 Sept 8 6 rings San Jacinto , Ca. A 2 1/2 hour drive one way. I was up against 21 kitties. I won 2 rosettes at the show in my first and fourth ring. My first ring it was the same judge that game me a ribbon at the Hemet show last year 2011. Mom and I were so happy. Now I have 4 ribbons/rosettes. WOW I’m on my way that’s five shows down.
I do better in the smaller shows. They aren’t as loud and not as big of crowds coming by to look at you in your benching cage and at the judge’s ring. If you have been in a kitty show, you know what I mean. So many people and noise. I hope some of you are interested in trying a show. It is fun and to have so many people telling you how pretty you are. I know how pretty I am but it’s nice to hear from someone other than mom. Some even ask to pet me. It’s up to your mom/dad if you want that. Sometimes we are getting ready to go to a ring so that would be a no. We do have the antibacterial hand stuff in case someone wants to pet us. Mom likes to keep me safe. Everyone that shows all the time has the stuff with them by the cages.
I hope you are enjoying some behind the scenes of the cat shows and how I did at some of mine. It is fun even if I’m nervous. Mom does take me to stores sometimes before a show or just because so I can get use to the noise. It is something some of the mom’s and dad’s suggest that have been doing the shows for a while. I guess it helps.
Have a catriffic day and enjoy lots of mom and dad time.

good
we'll see you in a little while. janet's got a hbp/choles-terol check at 8:30 as mommy has to be retested so she's tagging along and then has a side trip to the bank to put her refund into her savings as most will go to pay for natty's car insurance once he gets his license, and she'll pay hers in full to get that done for the time being seeing she's fighting the state insurance board on a sur-charge as that arrived here on saturday and went out yes-terday in the mail. garden work outback later after she's home and likely we might run into her as well as nat as she did ask him to get some raking done of pine needles from the inside of the fence and from her herb garden. all of which likely won't be done by the time she gets home, but did ask him to get right out there, but knowing him like she does he'll not get out there right away. sandy,ana,haley, angelsCome visit me, ana, haley, malachi is my boyfriend! whiskerscotm & sandy, angels, vote whiskers cotm!.

Day 8
Thank you for all your support and pushing my votey button. You are the best.
Ok, my fourth show was you guessed it, back in Del Mar San Diego Cat Fanciers presents The Food and Water Bowl XX Jan 28 & 29, 2012 8 rings 45 minutes away. I really don’t like this show at all. The hall has a big echo. It’s a show hall the fair uses so it’s basically a big warehouse that humans sell things at the fair. When you have lots of humans and the speakers it’s one big YUCK for me. I know other kitties don’t like it that loud either. I was up against 51 kitties. Mom keeps all the flyers and booklets from the shows. I guess it’s for me to remember my show days. I just soon forget some of them. Hehe
I didn’t get any rosettes again. I just don’t do well with the big shows. I do let all the judges hold me and check me out. I don’t like to play with their toys. Most kitties don’t but some do. If the judges wanted me to play then they should bring the toys I like. MOL
This year so far there are shows up in Ontario, Ca March 16 scheduled and then April 27 & 28 in Palm Springs. We want to do a Palm Springs show but we are going to wait until after my catpaign. There are always shows in Palm Springs. Palm Springs has 2 one day shows with 6 rings each day. You can do one or both shows. We would most likely just do the one day show then come home that night. That’s another 2 ½ to 3 hour drive one way. That a long time in the car with mom. I don’t mind riding in a car, I just nap or look at mom.
I don’t know if I told you but a ring is a judge. So if I have 8 rings that means I see 8 judges. Each judge holds me and looks at me. That’s a lot of strangers touching me. OK some of the judges I have seen before but still I don’t see them on a daily basis. Mom checks the website a couple times a month to see the schedule. It changes as the shows get booked.
I hope you are enjoying the catpaign and getting lots of information. I hope it’s not information overload.
Enjoy your day and get lots of mom and dad time.

HI Greycee Mist
Day 7
Thank you for your support and your votey. I appreciate you coming by every day to visit me. I hope you are enjoying my catpaign and a look into cat shows.
It is fun and scary at the same time at the shows. People are coming by your benching cage looking at you and asking if they can take your picture. I think I should get a can of fancy feast mornings if they want my picture but does mom say that NOOOOO she just says yes. It’s not her picture they are taking. I know you all agree with me. I’m the Star.
You mostly see the same humans and kitties. Sometimes there are newbies and we help them with their cage set up and how it works. They bench a newbie with some of the kitties that have done shows for a while. I know not every kitty is cut out to be a show kitty. Mom knew I was the one. I will run to the door if I hear someone knocking. I just need to know who it is. I played with her nieces and nephews. Mom says I just have it. I don’t know what it is and I just might not want to have it. If Callie was here I know she would know what it is and would let us all know.
You can look under Cat Fancy Association or CFA and The International Cat Association or TICA to find shows in your area/region. You can find the information on showing and what you will need. I like getting a mew toy. Mommy and me time is the best. I don’t have to share mommy with my sisters. Of course they are alone while we are gone. Hehe
If you have been in a show, I would love to hear about it. I know some of you kitties have even won some rosettes. Let me know what category you show in too.
Have a catriffic day. Enjoy mom and dad time.

HI Greycee Mist
Sorry about mittens. I have get well hugs for her.
Day 5
Thank you for your support and pawing by me a votey. You are the greatest.
My next show was The Happy Cat Show San Diego, Ca Aug 6-7, 2011 6 rings 45 minutes away. I was up against 31 kitties. I missed the show in April at the same place but that’s alright. This show was only 15 minutes away. I did well again but no rosettes. Mom says it’s alright if I don’t win. I always get a mew toy for every show I’m in. Mom buys it from a vendor at the show. In between my judging, mom is able to see the vendors and what else is happening at the show. Talk with her furriends and I relax in my kitty bed with my toys. I have a rolling crate with my curtains, litter box, bed, toys, and other things I need. It’s my to go box and is always ready except mom puts my dishes, food, camera and other things we don’t keep in there all the time. I did get a lot of curtains from my furriend Highland Piper #171322. He is a European Burmese. He doesn’t show any more and he sent me his curtains. I always get compliments on his curtains. They are very pretty. I have some on the table before mom puts my things in too. I’m so love my mommy and me time. The smaller shows aren’t loud and you don’t have the echo like the Del Mar Show.
The shows also have lots of rescue groups and shelters with kitties up for adoption. We get a lot of kitties adopted and some of those kitties waiting for adoption are being judged too. The shelters/rescues entered a kitty or two and sometimes some have more. Everyone watching is told they are awaiting adoption and to make it even better, some kitties even win rosettes.
Have a catriffic day and enjoy your mom and dad time.

Day 3
Thank you for supporting me and pushing my votey button. I appreciate you stopping by to visit me. Thank you for putting me in your taglines too.
My first show was only 45 minutes away. I went to the groomer and was very good for Miss Bobbi. She gave me a bath and did my nails two days before the show.
Mom had to go and get a couple yards of material for my curtains and she was a yard short. MOL I have a benching cage I stay in while waiting to be judge. I need my curtains up so we don’t see the other kitties. I have a litter box that I don’t use, mom has food and water for me that I don’t eat or drink and my kitty bed with some toys. I do lay in my kitty bed. Don’t worry, it is normal for some kitties not to use the litter box, eat or drink during the show. Only my furriends that have been going to shows for years and to most of the shows eat and use the litter box. I do love my benching cage. When mom gets it ready then takes me out I jump into my cage. It’s safe in there. I also have another cage, it’s called the judges cage. It’s up by the judge. Mom has to listen for them to call the household pets and my number. I then go and get in the cage with my number on top and wait for the judge to get me out. Mom was nervous how I would react to my first judge but I just let him hold me and look at me. Mom didn’t get a picture because she was watching to make sure I didn’t take off. MOL
I was real nervous. The Del Mar show is very loud and there are so many people there to watch us. Yes, most of the people watch the Household pets. We always have the largest crowds watching us. Each judge is different. Household Pets do not have standards like the pure breeds. We do have to be at least 4 months old, not declawed, in good health with no evidence of fleas, ear mites, etc. Cats 8 months of age or older must be spayed/neutered. Nails should be clipped on all four paws before leaving for the show. HHP’s are judged on condition (general good health), uniqueness, temperament, and grooming. Most people bathe their pet one to two days before the show. The judges loved the household pets because it’s judges choice on who wins. I have one judge that has given me a rosette twice. He always says he picks the cats he would like to take home. I guess I’m real special. MOL
Ok, more tomorrow or I will just keep on meowing. MOL Enjoy your mom and dad time.

it was
pretty out there minus the whipping cold wind which made it feel more like the 20s and the snow flurries flying around from the great lakes which of course here in the valley never amount to much of anything. the wind is sup-posed to die down a little today and warm into the mid 40s then 50s tomorrow and die down even more. janet's already been out walking just after 6 this morning with pepper as she was up and ready to go. nobody else stirred a muscle till around 7:30-8 as usual and nat was the dead last out of bed by 8:30. sandy, ana, haley, angelsCome visit me, ana, haley, malachi is my boyfriend! whiskerscotm & sandy, angels, vote whiskers cotm!.

Hi Greycee Mist
Day 2
Thank you for supporting me and pawing me a votey. As you know, I show in the CFA and I’m in the Southwest region. The CFA Southwest Region(Region 5) was one of the first CFA Regions to score household pets for regional awards. The Northwest region(Region 2) and Japan (Region 8) have also been scoring household pets and presenting regional awards for many years. The regions that show household pets are Region 1 North Atlantic, Region 2 North West, Region 3 Gulf Shore, Region 5 Southwest, Region 6 Midwest, Region 7 Southern and Region 8 Japan. Region 7 is the most recent region to present regional awards for the 2007-2008 show season. You can get a lot of information that I give you on the CFA website. I am getting it from the Southwest Region’s website. The other regions are Region 4 Great Lakes, Region 9 Europe and International Division (Asia/Latin America)
My show year runs from May 1 through April 30. The Southwest Region encompasses Southern California (Bakersfield and points South), Arizona and Las Vegas, Nevada. Usually the top 10 household pets are presented awards except for the Del Mar, Ca Show in January. It’s the biggest show in the region We have at least 45 household pets and the top 15 get awards. All the other shows are smaller and you only have 20-25 kitties in the household pet category.
My first show was The Food & Water Bowl XIX Jan 22 & 23, 2011 Del Mar, CA 8 rings. I was up against 45 household pets. Mom didn’t know it was the biggest show in the region until we got there and someone told her. She still says she started me out in a shark tank. I don’t know what a shark is. I was very nervous.
Tomorrow my first show and how I felt.
Kitty kisses,

HI Greycee Mist
Day 1
Thank you so much for asking me to run for COTM. I am so honored. This is the best bunch of kitties and I am so happy to be with you all.
Some of you might not know but I am a show cat. I have been in seven shows starting in Jan 2011. We don’t go to all the shows but it’s nice just to have mommy and me time. I’m going to tell you a little of how I felt in the shows, some of the rules and you can come to my gallery and see some of the pictures from the shows.
I have won 5 rosettes and mommy put up a shelf for me to display my rosettes and my pictures are around the shelf with my pretty rosettes around me.
Just so you know , you don’t have to be a purebred to be shown. I’ll tell you about that first, mom has me in the category of HHP( Household Pet). I will get into some of the purebreds afterwards if I have some time. I go to the CFA(Cat Fancy Association) shows. My last show one of my mom’s furriends gave her a booklet for the TICA(The International Cat Association) shows. They are starting to go to those shows too. We’ll read the booklet and let you know a little about those shows too.
I hope you enjoy my catpaign and that I can answer your questions about the shows. I know there are a few of you out there that go to shows too. Tomorrow we will start off with my first show, how I felt and some background.
Enjoy your mom and dad time. Kitty kisses

good morning!
we'll likely be late on sunday morning due to janet's crammed schedule as of right now she might have an hour if she's lucky to herself besides on her walk unless she does sunrise service. after one of those she's grilling out for breakfast an annual event here now 5 years going, then starting to get things ready for lunch, although not to much will have to be done seeing just warming things up as she's redoing the green bean casserole and making it again, throwing out the other as those beans didn't quite get done. fence posts are in the ground around the edge of the garden and janet's feeling it this morning around her neck and upper back! stiff is the word, but work might help to unstiffen it. sandy, ana, haley, angelsCome visit me, ana, haley, malachi is my boyfriend! whiskerscotm & sandy, angels, vote whiskers cotm!.

Hey Friends!
Making a few more rounds, just to see how you are doing. Mom is feeling better and we are well too. Mom was home. She worked on getting some things together for taxes. She says she needs help this year since she is switching onto Social Security and not sure which tax form will work best. She is trying to find free resources for Seniors.Come visit me, Our Precious Angels #75646, Heffner #130639-----VFP Goalie, Barney's Daily Inspiration, Handy Andy #149735 VOTE WHISKERS 227256 K.

guess what?
here we did warm up a bit as the wind direction changed from the northeast to the southwest by the afternoon so the melting got started and the top of the roof is being seen once again as most roads are nice and clean once again. janet was online for half of the day, then outside between times walking 3 times and working magic in the kitchen once again with pork chops two kinds cranberry marinated and stuffing with gravy as well as a mashed pot-ato casserole which all liked the meal with mixed veggies last night and tonight it's with corn or peas. sandy, ana, haleyl, angelsCome visit me, ana, haley, malachi is my boyfriend! whiskerscotm & sandy, angels, vote whiskers cotm!.

So many of our dear furriends ...
... have come by to wish Mom and me a Happy 14th Adoptiversary! Some were unable to make it that day, but have been over since to see us. We appreciate each and every visit. We even had visits from brand new furriends ... what a nice gift that was.
Mom is trying to find enough vases to put all the beautiful flowers into. I have nibbled my way through a huge amount of tuna, chicken, cheese, and all sorts of delights. (Cherish gives a tiny, ladylike burp.)
It does appear I have a diabetic condition, but right now it is under control with diet and cuddles and lots of brushing. Mom is handling the diet part; I am making sure the cuddles and brushing get done. Just call me Dr. Cherish. My water intake is back to normal, as are the little urine deposits I leave in my litter box. Hey! Mom even got me a new litter box. How cool is that?
The new car is working out well so far. The pawrents will take it in for a check up soon, and then over to the car wash. Parts of it really need a bath. Our old Jeep is headed for auction for parts; that bad. We are just fortunate the car broke down so close to home and not while on a long trip or on our terribly busy freeways. No brakes, no steering control could have led to a most undesirable outcome. So, Mom has me, she and Dad have the nice used SUV for now, and I ... well, I have all of you! Truly we are blessed.Come visit me, Q. Cherish - COTM March 2012.
