Butchie entered in the TICA cat show in October..UPDATE!!!!

[moosmom]

He's entered in the Household Pet category. I think he's going to do great!!! I sent in the application this morning.

The cat show will be at the Connecticut Expo Center in Hartford. There'll be a ton of vendors, dog agility trials. It's a great place to bring the family. October 23/24th. Bring a can of cat food and get $1 off your $7 entry fee. I hope to see some of you New Englanders there so you can meet and see how well Austin B (his show name) does in the rings.

[davidpizzica]

Good luck, sweetheart and Austin B! I'll be there in spirit to make sure he behaves!!

[Laura's Babies]

Ohhhh! I wish I could be there!!

[sana]

Good Luck and I hope you win Austin B :)

[phesina]

Oh, that's really neat! On his way to a few Blue Ribbons, I'm sure.

Best wishes for the show, Austin B!

[krazyaboutkatz]

I'm sure he'll do well.:) I'll be going to a cat show this weekend but just as a spectator. If I lived closer I'd be sure to be there to root for him.:)

Hey Donna, is there an Amtrak station nearby? I'm considering maybe going for a day. Depends on what's going on around here.

[moosmom]

Yes, right in downtown Hartford. I'll eve pick you up if you really want to be there!!! I have a futon you can sleep on too!!

[phesina]

Ooooh, I'm thinking of taking a trip to New England some time this fall to visit my friends around Boston and Providence.. maybe that would be a good time to do it and I could meet even more of my friends in Hartford!

[moosmom]

That would be AWESOME!!! Keep me posted.

[momcat]

I'll pick up a schedule at the station when Groucho goes to meet the Catmobile kitties heading to the Scottish Games in Catifornia. The PT Kitty Bagpipe Trio has their first public performance and they all want to be there. We definitely will talk!

[davidpizzica]

If you girls are lucky, I might be able to check in there by phone! I call Moosmom pretty often!

[Marigold2]

Best of luck.

[cassiesmom]

Moosmom, I was going to ask how Austin did in the show, but it's next month! Dopey me. But -- while I'm on the subject -- how's Austin? Could you give him some petting from me?

[Freedom]

Donna, do you know which day Butchie (and you) will be there?

[Bonny]

Break a leg (that is show biz talk) wishing you a big win Butchie

[moosmom]

It's a 2 day show. 12 rings. So I'll be there both days. The show is from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.

[moosmom]

How many of you PTers are planning on attending the Pet Expo. October 23 & 24, 10 am to 5 pm. Hartford Expo Center, off the Jennings Road exit on the I-91 SOUTH BOUND side.

I hope you all can come. Butchie and me will be there! I'm getting excited by the minute!!!:D:D

[momcat]

I'll definitely be there on Saturday. Already got the Amtrak schedule and will be getting my ticket later this week. Because of stuff going on here I can only do the one day. Donna, I'll call you later.

[phesina]

I wish I was still in New England.. I'd definitely be attending if I was!

Don't think I'll be able to make it from here, darn it.

[Freedom]

Plan to be there on one of the days; won't know which one until I see the weather. (I'd prefer not to do long distance driving in down pours.)

[neko1]

Awww wish I could make a road trip, but I'll be on an airplane going in the other direction:eek::p:o

[cassiesmom]

Good luck in the show, Austin B.! Wish I could be there!

[Pinot's Mom]

I'm sorry, I cannot be there, we have a jam-packed weekend. Good luck Austin B!! :)

[sana]

I really really wish i could go, but alas I live on the other end of the world. :( At least I can wish GOOD LUCK!!! Good Luck Austin B. And prayers for you that you win. :)

[moosmom]

Went to my friends house to make cage curtains outta 2 queen sized, green checked flat sheets and lace. Total cost: $14 (they run anywhere from 75-$150). People don't want to see the cage curtains (some can be REALLY extreme!!), they want to see this:

[Karen]

Hee hee! How fun! They have a nekkid dog as well as nekkid kitties?

Momcat, don't be too surprised if you and Donna get a call from me that saturday night, too!

[momcat]

David, I'm looking forward to your call!

[moosmom]

Davidp,

Let's set up a time to call. With YOUR busy social schedule, I can never reach you!!!

How about around 3 pm? This way most of Butchie's rings will be done and I won't get any interruptions. You can always talk to Eileen (Momcat) till I come back or I'll call you back (as usual).

Went out and bought hand santizer (don't want my baby getting sick fom the germy people wanting to pet him), turkey baby food, paper towels. *note to self* don't forget small black clips to hold cage curtains up.

That's a good time, sweetheart. By that time most of the activities will be over and it'll be before supper. It'll be a mini PT meeting! I'll be there.

[Pinot's Mom]

Of course you'll post to let us know what happens!! Eileen knows my number if she wants to give a sneak preview. :) Good Luck Austin B!

[cassiesmom]

Moosmom, how did Austin's show go? :D

[Pinot's Mom]

I was wondering the same thing - haven't heard a peep!

[momcat]

I was at the Cat Show and am very proud of our sweet little Austin B. As for how he made out, we should hear about it directly from Donna. I certainly don't want to take anything away from his proud Meowmie.

The Expo was great! So many beautiful kitties...so little time!

[cassiesmom]

Bounce ... hoping Austin B.'s meowmie will tell us results :)
