The shot of the Sphinx being judged didn't turn out.

but the sight of the judge holding his sweet little tiny tail and describing the fine points of it's muscalture (sp?) was exceedingly sweet.

And a gorgous gray tuxie girl, about 6 years old, won in household pets division. Simply gorgeous!

OMG! Thanks for posting the pictures Amberlee and taking a picture of Isis for me. She was just breathtaking. Can you imagine 2 white chugs??!! That would have been so cute. I guess that's why Aaron goes to these shows with me....to keep me in check. I would have adopted that cat in a heartbeat!

*swoon*

Kelly, there was an absolutely gorgeous fawn Somali! I think all of us PTers voted for her as spectator's choice!

The shopping was great! I was restricted (again, thanks to Aaron!

LOL LOL) in the number of purchases, but there will be other catshows! I got myself a pair of cute little earrings. I should have bought one of the t-shirts I saw, but hopefully that vendor will be at the next show!
**hugs**

Great pics! I LOVE my new car! That was it's first "long" ride outside of San Francisco. I found myself "cruising" home at 80 mph!

NoahsMommy we all bought cat-themed earrings. I guess we'll all have to wear them at the Barbecue in July!

AmberLee I LOVE those trivets! I just might have to order some online!

We all fell in love with the Somalis. I went online to do more research. Petfinder has a few up for adoption, but they're all back east. Darn! Although I'm sure my two wouldn't want a new sibling!

A good time was had by all and now my two have gotten their obligatory after-cat-show grooming. No matter what I do, they will NEVER look like those show cats. I love them to bits anyway!

Sorry I couldn't make it to this one!!

From the way the weather has been acting up the past couple of days (er.. weeks), and the shower forecasts, I just didn't trust the weather.

It looks like you guys had a lot of fun though.. I wish I could have made it! I will definitely try to make it to the next one!

(The one in March?)

P.S.
I hope to see some of you next Monday, at the dog park meeting!

Yes, we sure had a great time today. I wish it didn't have to end. Oh well, now back to reality.

Thanks for posting the pictures AmberLee. I just wasn't in the mood to take pictures today.

I bought a very cute cat necklace and earrings to match. Here's a picture of it. It was hard to take a clear picture of it but the silver round things are little cat heads.

Here are the other 2 pairs of earrings that I bought. They're from Jewelia Designs and her web address is www.jfadams.net/Jewelia/.

The lady would also change the stone color for you if you wanted her too. So I picked out some of my favorite colors. RedHedd bought the same kind of earrings as the second cat earring picture only in gold.
