Hi Thalia
Please vote Rosie #252822 for COTD on Monday, 5/20
Recently a cat loving family had their red female cat, Angel Rhuby cross over the Rainbow Bridge. The cat mom of this family decided she would like to adopt another red female and as luck would have it, there was Rosie at the Petsmart Adoption Center. Rosie #252822 and her new mom bonded instantly and Rosie came to her new home that day. Rosie was at the shelter for over two months and was a bit wild. She didn't like being kept in a cage and would fight with the shelter workers when they tried to put her back in her cage. This was a big reason why Rosie #252822 wasn't adopted sooner; she was scared and the people looking at her were not patient with her until her new mom came along. Now at her new home Rosie #252822 is a cuddle cat with her daddy and loves to play with her brother Yogi. She gets along with the rest of her furry siblings and is a happy cat. Rosie #252822 will not eat dry food but she will eat any kind of wet food. She doesn't like dry treats either! Rosie loves to play with her furry mouse and the laser light. Rosie #252822 is happily spoiled now in her new home and we are very happy she has found a wonderful loving home. Rosie would be so honored to have a COTD badge to display on her page. Please visit Rosie #252822 on Monday, 5/20, and leave a vote for her so she can proudly have her own shiny COTD badge.
While making the rounds of visits on the CC, please go visit our May catpaigner for COTM, Whiskers #227256, and give his votey button a good whack so he can add your vote to his collection to become our King of June.. Also, please visit our Queen of May, Queen Spunky #161265, and letting her know we are all thinking of her and her family.Come visit me, Angel Oscar - I love Angel Cloudy, Finster - I am engaged to Destiny 62594, Nosey -- I Love Orzo & Biscuit is my guy, Sweet Jake - Loving Memory- I will always love you, Angel Lucky - I love Angel Shadow, Angel Rhuby-I love Sir Leo- Welcome Angel Sparky, Q Linguini-I love A.

This sweet kitty joined the angels in February 2013 after losing his battle with complications that developed after being hit by a car the month before. He’d survived having both legs broken & surgery, but was unable to walk & had to drag himself to the litterbox. He was very brave & stayed a very sweet boy during all of the pain, infections, examinations & becoming a foster; but the angels knew that his life would not be a full one with his disabilities & thus called him home. Please pounce by to paw ANGEL CRASH #248838 a vote today so that his foster mom will have a fond memory to cherish & so that this sweet angel can earn the honor of making his star the most brilliant in the night sky tomorrow night.
Congratulations to our newest royal cat QUEEN SPUNKY #161265!! Your campaign about the details of cat shows was stupendous & we learned a lot about how things work for the fabulous show cats.

Congratulations to our new COTM nominee WHISKERS #227256!! We’ve been keeping a close watch on you sweet boy because you’re one of those special kitties that bring out the best in all the others whose lives you touch.

She was hand picked for her new parents by her sister Wendy's breeder when she found out how sick Wendy was. But this sweet girl was already a mom so her new parents had to wait to bring her home. All of her kitties found their furever homes & then she had her Big Girl surgery. She was finally able to come to her new home in January. She wasn't sure if she wanted to stay at first, but her new parents gave her lots of love & support so we are happy to report she is settling in quite nicely. KAYLIN #251700 spends her days hanging out on Mom & Dads laps, playing with her toys, & napping in the sun. She also likes to tear through the apartment at top speed and has been known to do it in the middle of the night too. Her most favorite things to eat are the Roast Chicken that she shares with her parents, and her Blue food. She Loves to make new friends so won't you please stop and give KAYLIN #251700 your vote and make a new friend.

Hi Angel Thalia
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.
CFA SW Region Household Pets
2011-2012 Regional Winners
Best Household Pet
GROMIT
Seal Lynx Point Spay
Owners: Margaret & Julie Benzer
Second Best Household Pet DUKE Red Mackerel Tabby and White Neuter Owner: Candy Kalman
Third Best Household Pet PADRAIC Black Neuter Owners: Margaret & Julie Benzer
Fourth Best Household Pet ANGEL PAWS Brown Classic Tabby & White Spay Owners: Isabel & Pat Pomphrey
Fifth Best Household Pet SCOOBY DOO Black & White Neuter Owners: Isabel & Pat Pomphrey
Sixth Best Household Pet PHOEBE Dilute Calico Spay Owner: Helene Sakellis

Ninth Best Household Pet DUNCAN MACLEOD Cream & White Neuter Owner: Isabel & Pat Pomphrey
Tenth Best Household Pet LANCELOT Silver Classic Tabby & White Neuter Owners: Francene McKelvey
Some of these kitties were found in the yard of their pawrents or a furriend of their pawrents. Some were from rescues, One was a street kitty that has the scars from street life. Any kitty can be a star. You can be a star. Give it a try, you just might like being in a cat show.
Thank you for allowing me to be your COTM candidate for April. It has been so much fun. You can find the rankings of all the kitties that have placed in a ring, how many rings and where they stand now. Just go to the CFA website in your area or just look at the CFA website in my area.
Have a catriffic day. Enjoy lots of mom and dad time.

HI Angel Thalia
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 Angel Thalia
Day 27
Thank you for coming by and pushing my votey button. I am so lucky you to have so many new furriends and old furriends.
We are getting closer to the end of the month. I must admit, I’m getting a little nervous. So have any of you decided to try a cat show? Did it sound appealing to you? I must admit it is fun but sometimes the shows are just to loud for me.
“Everything a cat is and does physically is to me beautiful, lovely, stimulating, soothing, attractive and an enchantment.” Paul Gallico from “An Honourable cat
“I think one reason we admire cats, those of us who do, is their proficiency in one-upmanship. They always seem to come out on top, no matter what they are doing-or pretend to do. Rarely do you see a cat discomfited. They have no conscience, and they never regret. Maybe we secretly envy them.” Barbara Webster from “Creatures and Contentments”
Have a catriffic day. Enjoy lots of mom time.

HI Angel Thalia
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 Angel Thalia
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 Angel Thalia
Day 24
Thank you for pushing my votey button. I appreciate you stopping by and visiting me every day.
Penalties: Judges can penalize but not disqualify for unrepaired umbilical hernia, damaged ears or eyes as a result of injury, spots, patches, or sprinkling of incorrect color i.e. color faults other than lockets and belly spots.
Cats that have been declawed shall not be penalized. As you remember, you can’t be shown in the CFA shows if you have been declawed.
Household Pet Color Classification-Each household pet may be present to an Allbreed Judge in order to determine the correct color on each entry, prior to the start of judging, and that classification will hold throughout the entire show.
My color classification is Crème and White. I am medium hair length. I also have a kink at the end of my tail. That would be a disqualification as a pure breed in CFA but I could be shown as a household pet. A judge once told the visitor to the cat show when he was handling me that I had a kink at the end of my tail and it was a disqualification for pure breeds but it’s character for household pets. MOL I wounder what TICA would say about my tail.
Have a catriffic day. Enjoy lots of mom and dad time.

Hi Angel Thalia
Day 21
Thank you for all your support. I am so excited you stop by and press my votey button. You make me feel so special.
Today is the day I first won my COTD Badge. 4/21/2010.My sister Callie was Queen of April 2010. I feel so special running for Queen in the same month my sister was Queen. We sure miss Callie.
Vetted shows –A licensed practicing veterinarian acting or the club must examine each cat or kitten including household pets and entries for sale or exhibition prior to benching and shall disqualify any cat that shows evidence of fungus, fleas ear mites, or any infectious or contagious condition.
Non-vetted shows-Any exhibitor, judge or show committee member suspecting any cat of having fungus, fleas, ear mites, or any infectious or contagious illness may report same to the show manager.
Show flyers shall indicate whether a show is Vetted or Non-vetted.
Household pets are in two Entries in TICA :
Household pets Longhairs Non championships
Household pets shorthairs Non championships
Wow I guess I would be considered a longhair kitty. Some of my furriends in CFA’s are shorthairs so I might not get to see them. HMMMMM
Have a catriffic day. Enjoy mom and dad time.

Hi Angel Thalia
Have a good weekend with your mum
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 Angel Thalia
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.
Kitty kisses

HI Angel Thalia
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
Have a catriffic day. Get lots of mom and dad time.
Kitty kisses

Hi Angel Thalia
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 Angel Thalia
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 Angel Thalia
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 Angel Thalia
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 Thalia
Please vote Cassandra #205806 for COTD on Monday 4/15
The CMR crew is pleased to introduce to you another Special Recognition Cat: Cassandra #205806 for COTD. We are pawing and pouncing over to ask you to please vote for Cassandra for COTD on Monday, 4/15 (otherwise known as Tax Day in the human's world).
Cassandra's full name is Cassandra Lee Brown, which to us sounds like a good name. She was named Cassandra after a book her mommy read about a beautiful lady who had golden green eyes and long black hair. Yes, we would say this suits Cassandra #205806 to a "t". Cassandra also is a princess around her home. She is pampered and loves attention especially from her human daddy. Cassandra #205806 is dainty and little, weighing in at only six pounds and is the twin to her brother Montgomery George Brown. They were lucky kitties and both were adopted together into their forever home. When the mood strikes her, Cassandra #205806 can hide in the smallest of places and will close the cupboard door behind her leaving it almost impossible to locate her. Cassandra likes hamburgers from Burger King, cheese and hot dogs. She hates being interrupted from her naps and being ignored by her daddy. Please paw over to visit this sweetheart of a cat, Cassandra #205806 and leave a vote for her so she can proudly display a COTD badge to all who visit her.
While you are on the CC, please paw a vote for our newest campaigner for COTM, Spunky #161265 who is introducing us all to her adventures and advise about cat shows and the expectations from the cats and the judges. Please continue to visit our COTM, Queen Trixie #172636 who is continuing to lead us on zoo tours across the world and keeping us informed of the plight of endangered animals.
This is Sienna and family along with Linguini and family leaving you fresh roasted spring lamb with lots of catnip sauce and homemade oatmeal cookies for desert, thanking you all for continuing to support our candidates for COTD. Sending purrs and wishing you and your families peace and good health.Come visit me, Angel Oscar - I love Angel Cloudy, Finster - I am engaged to Destiny 62594, Nosey -- I Love Orzo & Biscuit is my guy, Sweet Jake - Loving Memory- I will always love you, Angel Lucky - I love Angel Shadow, Angel Rhuby-I love Sir Leo- Welcome Angel Sparky, Q Linguini-I love A.

Hi Angel Thalia
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.

Hi Angel Thalia
Day 12
Thank you for all your support. I really appreciate you taking time to press my votey button.
Ok, sometimes I do get real nervous at the show but mom has some of the Feliway calming spray and uses it in my cage before I go back in.
I have a nice little tote that carries my brushes, nail clippers. These are my own clippers (mom bought a new one for the house so I don’t have to share and in case I need to be clipped at the show). I even have some fans in case I get hot. At the show in San Diego, my second show the air conditioning broke and it was so hot. It was August in San Diego one of our hottest months. Mom went out after the show and bought some little battery operated fans and keeps them in my to go crate. She won’t let me get hot again. The air conditioning was fine the second day but we aren’t going to chance it.
I have some baby washcloths. Mom wipes me down after being handled so there isn’t any human sweat on my fur. My little tote can hang from the side of my cage. Some of the humans bought them from a vendor. They have little folding cages. Some kitties bring their own cages. They fold down and not wire. They go to a lot of shows. Mom said maybe someday I can get one but we need to go to more shows. I like my curtains so I think we can just stick with the wire cages that are provided.
Mom brings my kitty wipes too in case of an accident and I need to be washed up before being judged. I need to be dry too so I guess the fans come in handy. One show a kitty had an accident on the way to the show and the owner forgot her hair dryer. Mom lent her a fan and it sure work. That kitty was a purebred.
Enjoy lots of mom and dad time. Have a catriffic day.
Kitty kisses

Hi Angel Thalia
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.

HI Angel Thalia
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.

Hi Angel Thalia
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.

Hi Angel Thalia
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.

Please vote for Dixie 230112 Monday April 8
Cute as a button Dixie was dropped off at her future home where she now happily resides with her humans and fursiblings. She has learned how to love from them and quite often you can find her hanging out on her mom or grandmom's lap. She doesn't have any pet peeves but she loves jumping into open drawers. Isn't that a great trick? Her motto is an important one: "Spay and neuter your pets." I couldn't agree more. Please paw on by her page 230112 and leave her a vote for her very own COTD badge. And while you are in a voting mood, don't forget our current COTM candidate, the adorable Miss Spunky 161215. I know both will appreciate your visit.
Thanking you with purrs of catitude. Love, Sabrina and Sylvester & Sibs for the Catpaign & Mews Room page.Come visit me, ~*~Sabrina ~*~.

HI Angel Thalia
I hope your mum is feeling better.
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.
Kitty kisses

HI Angel Thalia
We hope summer comes soon too. We want our door open so fresh air can come in through the screen door. I am enjoying mom time on the couch.

Hi Angel Thalia
I wasn't in a new show. Mom moved some pictures around when she put up the picture of my shelf. I am so lucky to have a shelf of my own. it's cold here again with rain on the way in the middle of next week.
