I I will be there showing both days in Pleasanton.
Hi everybody. I'm new to this. This will be my very first cat show. I've been told that I should enter my polydactyl cat, but I never knew how. I can't wait to see all of your beautiful kitties.
:)
Welcome to PT.:) Most of us are just going to the cat show. Our cats won't be there. I hope you can make it.:)Quote:

I printed out a few to bring with me.
Thanks for posting the flyer. I printed it and directions to the show out, so am ready to go! See you soon! :D
**hugs**
That was so much fun!!! Seeing all the beautiful kitties was amazing! I actually learned about so many breeds....many I'd never heard of before.
I did fall in love with two breeds. The Maine Coon (which I already loved before the show) and the Japenese Bobtail. They've got the best personalities. :D
I did get two pictures (woo hoo!) of two Maine Coons that I'll post later. I'm exhausted right now. LOL
It was so wonderful to meet Tracey and Karen (krazyaboutkatz and wolflady). They made the show MUCH more fun for me. :)
Now I'm off to take a little nappy poo. :p
Cindy, it was really nice to meet you! :) Those bobtails were really cool. I hadn't really seen very many before, and seeing them in the ring and how quirky their purrsonalities are made me like them so much more! I don't think I had ever seen a korat before, so that was cool. Other cats that I hadn't seen before included a long hair selkirk rex, long hair scottish fold and some la perms. I guess those haven't been shown in the CFA as long as they have in TICA, so just within the last year those have started to be shown at the CFA shows.
I think Cindy got a picture of Stevie Ray - LOL - cool name, huh? He was a very handsome main coon.
While we were there, we spoke a little bit with my breeder Linda who was helping with one of the rings. 3 of her kitties were there as well including Jeeves, Phinehas's son! One of Malachi's brothers was also there being shown. It was nice to see them again.
Tracey and Cindy made the outing more fun, so all in all it was a really good day! Hopefully we can do it again soon.
**hugs**
Sounds like you had fun. I :love: Maine Goons! Did they have a big red one like my Mishi dude?
I had a great time too but I always do.:) It was great to meet you Cindy and I'm glad that your first experience at a cat show was a good one. Hopefully there will be some more this year around our area so we can do this again.:)
Karen, you forgot to go back and buy that catnip hemp mouse for Malachi. He probably would've destroyed it quickly any way.;)
No, they didn't. They had a white one, several silver tabbie's, and I think that there were a few calico looking ones with mainly white bodies. I think that Cindy took a picture of one of these.Quote:

Here are the two pictures I took. And now that I have them uploaded I'm discovering they are horrible pictures. I'm sorry. :(
Next time I'll take more pictures because I won't be so in awe over all the beautiful kitties. :)
This is Stevie Ray. He is a little over a year old. Just before I took this he was sitting very regally in his cage and was entranced with a man that was also looking at him. Unfortunately I didn't get a pic of him with his beautiful eyes open.

And this is 5 month old Ashley. Apparently she wasn't entered in the kitten coompetition. I don't recall seeing her and that's the one category we watched the whole way through.

Awww! Cute pictures Cindy! I just love how big Stevie Ray's paws were and how big the kitten was for being only 5 months! LOL They looks so hugable, don't they? ;)
Yes, but these pictures do not do them justice. To see them in person is amazing!! The Maine Coons are SOOO large.....I :love: them!!!
I wish I could go back today just to take more pictures. But I'm working at ARF today. hee hee :)
:love: Maine Coons, and yes they ARE large. Wonderfully silky soft furry huge love muffins. The kittens are incredibly cute and funny.
I was there with Cleo a bi color black and white sphynx.
I had a bed with hearts on it in her cage.
This was my first time showing.
I did take pictures of Cleo in her cage.
Sorry I need not know to look for anyone with a pt hat.
I will be showing in Fresno next.
