1 Thanks you once again to Lesley, Georgina & Committee for my invitation, kept busy during the day. I selected Best of Variety Siamese & went for the Neuter, UK OLYG IMP GR CH & IMP GR PR LITTLEFEAT POWDERFINGER a Seal Tortie Point, I also did the Best of variety Burmese & this time opted for the kitten a Lilac, IMPROMPTU FLOWER POWER, who I thought looked lovely & made the final 3 for Overall Best in Show in spite of her very young age of not yet 4 months, My thanks to the Kirstyn for her services acting as my steward once again, we were ably assisted by not one but two Yes scheme candidates, to keep us on our toes, Eden-star & Ethan both of whom worked hard & showed an interest in the judging & show processes, which they maintained throughout, I sincerely hope their presentations went well & congratulate Ethan for completing his latest level. Final stage reports; No intention of going into a long spiel on beds, I am just going to ease you in gently, by starting to mention beds in the report, till I reach the point of indicating every exhibit which has a bed & if it impacts on handling, then I will make specific reference, to that exhibit. My engagement involves judging cats not beds! I am perfectly happy & willing to carry on a one-man crusade. If you don t want me to mention a bed, don t use one, simple. British Imperial Grand Champion, Female; IMP & 1 st Not Awarded. 2 nd PANTERS S GR CH BEAUBRITS PAWSY GALORE. BSH e Cream, at present this girl does not possess the degree of maturity that at this level she should have attained. Pretty girl round head, cheeks I d like fuller round brow, rather defined break, jutting jaw & sadly her bite is badly undershot. She has beautifully set, small neat ears which fit well into the head shape, Beautiful eyes well open & round good larger size to enhance their vibrant orange colour. Body was quite compact but needs to fill out more & I would like heavier bone, tail reasonably balanced. Coat good short length but requires more density & crisper texture. Her colour was hot & she is appears to be ticked base, as a result though initially looking clear & even she was also looking rather speckled as result, it could also be sounder, freckled nose leather. She was beautifully composed & her condition was excellent. Birman Grand Champion, Female; GR CH MYLNEK & HAYWARDS CH MYLWARD XANDRA SBI f Seal Tortie, very beautiful young lady looking so grown up. Head was showing good width across her cheeks, good muzzle, skull well rounded, slight dip in profile, hint of rise on her nose. Her chin taper minimally, level bite. Medium size, well placed ears with good width between. She has lovely eyes being well open & near round, the blue not looking so intense as on our previous encounter, though the expression just as lovely. The body was showing good maturity & weight, sturdy legs & short paws, her tail was bushy & its length balanced her body. Superb coat quality, it was full & had been so beautifully prepared, gorgeous ruff, slight hint of curl on the tummy, soft fine texture truly superbly groomed. Her points all showed both colours, though the seal was not so dominant on her front legs, but present nevertheless t& the contrasted strikingly again the coat which 1

2 has a very delicate light glow creating a subtle warmth on her lower back area. Stunning clean white feet markings, good gloves & socks, with tapered gauntlets to just below the hocks. Gorgeous condition & she has such a wonderful degree of confidence, sells herself beautifully. 3 weeks ago I gave her a CC I am delighted to follow it up with a Grand, as the ad states She s worth it. RES GR CH BROWN S CH BROFIELD FORGET-ME-NOT. SBI a Blue Point, still a degree of maturity to achieve particularly in view of her age advantage. Head has quite good width at the cheeks, good muzzle, round skull, slight dip in profile, chin & bite both good. Ears are medium size, ideally could be a fraction wider in set. Her eyes have a lovely depth of blue, near round shape. Body was very deceptive in its weight in relation to her size, good legs & paws, bushy tail. Her coat ideally I d like it fuller, to give greater lift, though it was well prepared, adequate amount of ruff. Body of cooler tone with some light tonal shading, excellent contrast to the slight darker blue points. The gloves were a little uneven, the gauntlets tapered if slightly ragged at the taper. Very sweet temperament, her condition was excellent. Seal Point Birman Adult, Male; 1 st CC & BOB. COUPLAND & BROWN S BROFIELD DENNIS THE MENACE Very well grown & mature lad for his very young age, appears to have made the transition from kitten to cat with remarkable ease. In spite of the disadvantage of youth, he has a broad masculine head, wide at the cheeks, strong muzzle, round skull, slight dip to his nose which has a tiny rise, chin, good, level bite. The ears widely set medium size. His eyes are not quite full round in shape, the colour ideally I d like to see a little deeper shade of blue. Well muscled & developed strong body, broad chest, solid weight, strong legs, short paws, bushy tail. Good amount of coat, which was well prepared, the colour could show a little more warmth to the body colour to create a more honey beige tone, good contrast to the points which again in an ideal world could show more warmth, still to complete & he has a touch of brindling at present. Gloves were relatively even & his gauntlets, were tapered to below the hocks, good socks. is condition & temperament both excellent. Also Considered for BOB. MOTT S IMP GR CH JANDOUGLEN STEORNBHAGH Much more mature & this shows in his more mature head type, good width across his well developed cheeks, his muzzle I d like a little more development, broad skull, slight dip, & slight nose bump, chin good as was the bite. Medium size ears, set wide apart. His eyes are almost round when alert & have a good depth of blue. Mature weighty body strong chest well boned legs, good paws, tail medium, length could be bushier. His coat really required a far greater degree of grooming, he had a large knot behind his right ear, & his abdomen area required more attention, top coat rather flat, need to make the most of his ruff. Dense seal points, contrast evident to his coat, but this was a little lack lustre. His temperament was excellent, physical condition was excellent, gloves relatively even, his gauntlets are low & could taper more evenly, could look so much better with more prep. Particularly at the level he is competing at. British Cream Adult; Considered for & Awarded BOB. SUTCLIFFE S CH CINDER SCASTLE BAILEY This lad has lovely look about him, if somewhat pretty for a boy, 2

3 apple round head shape, his cheeks round & full, round on the brow, chin adequate & bite untidy with some missing teeth & gingivitis. He has beautifully small well placed neat tidy ears. His eyes are beautiful, large & round well open shape, intense orange colour & such a lovely gentle expression. Body cobby & low on his well proportioned legs & good size paws, balanced medium tail. His coat was short & dense, just a little softer than ideal. The colour is a soft very even cream colour & pretty sound too. He just needs to acquire a bit more masculine appearance. His condition was splendid, his temperament extremely relaxed & gentle. Real pussycat. Also Considered for BOB. PANTERS S GR CH BERAUBRITS PAWSY GALORE. British Dominant Tortie Adult; 1 st & CC LEE S FERGAN TEQUILA ROSE. BSH f Black, slightly borderline award, head still to round more & fill at her cheeks, some muzzle pinch, round on her brow, chin okay, bite difficult to assess. Her ears are set wide apart, though she is inclined to bonnet them a little & she still has some tufts on the tips. The eyes were open & round, beautiful deep vivid orange colour. Body still some development to achieve, proportionate legs & paws, tail balanced length, albeit it I d like it heavier. Her coat was short, good texture. Shows a combination of black with lots of red evident. Condition was excellent, not a happy girl, needs to refine her manners. British Brown Spotted Tabby Adult, Male; 1 st & CC ADAIR S CHARMODEN SIMPLY-OTTO This lad initially was looking a little pretty though happy enough top demonstrate to the girl next door, he was indeed a boy. More to come in the maturity stakes but round & his cheeks are well filled, round on the brow, chin was firm, level bite. His ears are smaller medium size, set well apart. He has lovely eyes, well open & round, good larger size, deeper shade of golden orange & lovely expression. His body is cobby & has well proportioned limbs round paws, balanced medium length tail. Coat short & dense. Well spotted body including his tummy, cheek ribbons, spotted whisker pads, M, well defined lag bars & tail rings, some linkage behind the shoulders. His colour was generally warm with black pattern, outer edges of the paws, heels & tail tip, some grey at the roots. Handled well but did get somewhat uptight later, lovely condition, just a degree of maturing to achieve. British Brown Spotted Tabby Adult, Female; 1 st & CC WATKINS S SCARLETT- ROSE BAILEY Still somewhat immature but then she is only just over 9 months. Head still to broaden & fill out more, muzzle a little fine, round on her brow, chin requires more depth, bite good. Ears medium size, still to widen off more fully, but this is possibly an age issue. Eyes open & round, deep muddy coppery tone, still to settle fully. Rather gangly girl as yet & a little high in the leg, tail balanced length. Her coat was short, though marginally soft. The facial markings are well defined, showing spotted whisker pads, cheek stripes, M on her brow, lines break over her neck, body spotting a little variable, with some linkage present, & she was showing some agouti invasion, strong leg barring & tail rings. The colour looked a little cold mainly due to agouti invasion & though showing a little grey next to the skin, the remainder was impressively rich apricot. Her condition was excellent 3

4 she was very apprehensive & rather worried, as high as I would be prepared to go at this stage. Considered for & Awarded BOB. BUJALSKA-AXON S UK OLYG IMP GR CH DELPHINIUM SWEET WILLIAM Masculine broad head & full cheeks, rounded brow, chin firm, level bite. His ears are widely set, perhaps a little wider at their base, than ideal. Large well open round eyes, deep golden light orange tone. Huge lad with wonderful bone, thick muscular neck, deep chested mature very substantial body, strong legs, round paws, heavy medium length tail. His coat was dense & has a pleasing degree of crispness & it breaks as he moves. Well spotted body with well defined facial tracings, leg barring & tail bands. Black heels & tail tip, some greyness at the roots & whilst I would prefer it wasn t there in extremely few brown Tabbies of any pattern are devoid of it. He was in wonderful condition as always & whilst I have not seen him for some considerable time, his temperament still remains as exceptional as ever & this sets him apart, British AOC Spotted Tabby Adult, Male; 1 st CC & BOB CHANCE S LEKATI CAPTAIN MORGAN. BSH b Chocolate, handsome lad. Head was beautifully round with well filled cheeks, round brow, good muzzle, chin was good, bite level. His ears are set well apart, smaller medium size. Large wide open round shape to his eyes, with a beautiful colour of intense bright orange. At not yet a year old he still has some filling out to do in the body, which was noticeable on his flanks where he is still quite narrow whilst not of of keeping with his young age, good legs & paws, balanced tail. Coat quality still a little soft but with density, & a very good shorter length. Beautiful tracings to the face, body pattern was beautifully spotted & the contrast was excellent which defined the spotting beautifully, broken spine line, smaller spotting behind the shoulders, excellent le bracelets, well marked tail rings. Rich chocolate pattern in a warm coppery ground colour contrast well defined, deeper chocolate heels & tail tip, as well at the outer edges of his paws. He was lovely condition & such a gentle relaxed chap. British AOC Spotted Tabby Adult, Female; Dilema class. 1 st & CC. KIDD S WELLMAR MOONBEAM. BSH c Lilac, attractive type miss, head well rounded for her young age & her cheeks, filling well, rounded brow, good muzzle, her chin & bite both good. Ears were on the smaller side & though still to widen off more fully were nevertheless neat. Ideally I d like her to open up her eyes a little more fully, the colour though was bright vivid orange. Body was cobby & the size & development in keeping with her young age, she does have a suspect area which I confess I gave the benefit of some doubt, but good legs & paws, balanced tail. The coat quality & density were both excellent, short & with a very good crispness for her young age. This girl has amazing pattern for a dilute, admittedly you have to take a step back to fully appreciate it, but the spotting was splendid, well traced on the face excellent leg barring & tail rings, slightly darker pattern elements against the paler ground colour, coloured heels. Her temperament was incredibly sweet & gentle, excellent condition. 2 nd ADAIR S LIMATZ DAY DREAMER. BSH a Blue, beautiful type for her young age, apple round head shape, lovely fullness already apparent 4

5 to her cheeks, well developed muzzle, round brow line, strong chin, level bite. Her ears were relatively small & fitted well into her head shape. Her eyes were round & well open, colour was sadly lacking any depth or intensity, being something betwixt & between just managing to scrape yellow. Body was well developed cobby appearance with good bone to her legs & paws, well balanced tail. Her coat was dense & has a lovely texture. Her colour caused me a real issue, as a Blue she lacks the warmth I d expect & I did wonder if she was just low grade silver, if so she still did not conform, I genuinely could not be 100% sure, I recall a similar issue again with a blue in exactly the same part of the Hall last year so this may be a lighting issue in the area, but her very cold undercoat exacerbated the problem. Well defined, face & leg barring, some linkage to her tail rings, the body pattern was showing some merging, but better on the lower body. Her condition & temperament both splendid, British Ticked Tabby Adult; Considered for & Awarded Bob. CHANCE S GR CH CHARMODEN HECTOR. BSH a Blue, for type I like this lad very much, full apple round head shape & full round cheeks, with some jowls behind, enhancing their appearance, well rounded brow, strong muzzle, chin good, bite untidy with some missing teeth. His ears are set wide apart, small & tidy in appearance. Eyes round when fully open good bright orange colour. His body was beautifully cobby & compact, short neck, broad chest, well proportioned legs & paws, tail slightly short for balance. Coat incredibly dense, short & with a wonderful crispness to it. His some facials slightly muted M on his brow, with creamy beige agouti ground just evident, also some on his chest & slight amount on his legs & tummy where he was showing spots on his tummy line, some limb barring suggesting he may be heterozygous, (emphasis on may be) his ticking was at best very minimal & was actually almost more akin to a slightly heavier tipped blue self, I did seriously deliberate the BOB as a result, some tail rings just evident. He was in lovely condition & had a wonderful temperament. British Colourpointed & White Adult; Considered for & Awarded BOB. SIMPSON S CH ATHALUS PU NAM. BSh b Chocolate, handsome lad, very typy & a little shorter than I would like to see. Very round & full with well developed cheeks, slightly heavier brow line & more defined break as a result, short nose, fair chin, good bite. Broad skull, with neat tidy smaller ears, set well apart. His eyes I d like more fully round, paler blue colour. Short neck solid body, low on his well boned legs, round paws, well balanced tail, quite heavy. His coat though soft was short & dense just to crisp up more. Inverted white on his mask, with white also on his legs & paws, some tonal body shading his points are very dark & more seal toned than chocolate, with some colour on his nose leather also. He was in excellent overall condition, very shy but exceedingly gentle chap. British Golden Adult, Male; CC Not Awarded 1 st. COLEMAN S ABALUKI HOT STUFF This lad was out of kilter. His head lacked width & fullness at his cheeks, & rather fine muzzle, rounded brow, his chin requires depth, bite good. His ears are medium size, still to widen off more fully. I d ideally like his eyes larger & more fully 5

6 round, black eye liner, good green colour. His body is at present very rangy, long body & rather tall as yet, lacking in weight & muscle tone, tail also on the longer side. His coat typically longer than ideal, & requites more density, & a greater degree of crispness. The colour is beautiful rich apricot, showing heavier but even tipping, with some leg barring & vestigial tail rings also some necklets also evident. Black paw pads, as was his smudged heels. Needs time to mature & bulk up, his condition was sound, he was a bit prickly & not very relaxed. British Golden Adult, Female 1 st CC & BOB. YOUNG S ABULUKI JESSIE S GIRL BSH Not the best in the class, very young & as yet rather petite, Her head though still to fill out was round in shape, perhaps a little fine on the muzzle, round brow, straight nose, chin & bite both good. Ears are well smaller size. Eyes well open round shape black rims enhancing their size & green colour. Small as yet but the proportions are correct though she would undoubtedly benefit with a growth spurt, good tail. The coat was still quite soft, reasonable density if a little longer than I d wish. Colour was beautifully deep golden tone, the black tipping was virtually even, with dense black smudged paws extending a little up the heels & outer edges of her paws, also the tail tip. Some muzzle paling. Black lips & paw pads. Very sweet natured & her condition was excellent. This was a very generous award on my part, as she has a considerable amount of development still to achieve. 2 nd WILKINSON S ABULUKI DANMOSO DEVIATION Undoubtedly the best to the 3 & very pretty (looks can be so deceiving at times)but with a problem which prevented the Challenge. Head is typical of her colour/pattern, round but to mature & fill more fully, the muzzle to develop more fully, round on her brow, chin could be deeper, unable to check her bite. Her ears were set well. like the vast majority of her breed, the eyes are lovely, black rims, well open & round in shape, good colour green, very sweet expression (in the pen). Body where I would expect a golden of her age to be, well proportioned limbs & paws, medium length tail. Her coat was a little long (golden) & still very soft. Attractive facials, with paler area beneath her eyes & muzzle. though looking very cool toned in the, pen, during her brief period out of the pen to examine her undercoat it was very rich & warm with very impressive even tipping over her body, more subtle on her brow. Black paw pads & lips, brick coloured nose leather, Condition excellent, temperament extremely fiery & volatile, pity as she was the obvious winner. British Black Silver Classic Tabby Neuter; 1 st PC & BOB BRASSINGTON S IMP GR CH JORJEEZ DIAMOND GEEZER Cracking lad, I handled recently & looking just as good today. Head was well developed with full round cheeks, strong muzzle, rounded brow, small rise on his nose, strong chin, bite level.

Strong neck, mature well muscled body, cobby appearance, strong legs & paws, good tail. Very good coat, which had a good degree of density, short & with some crispness apparent. Well defined facial tracings, cheek ribbons, striped legs, good tail bands, well defined, butterfly over the shoulders, good dorsal lines, good near 6

7 matching oysters, black heels, very good silver ground colour. Wonderful condition, such a handsome composed gentle natured lad. Russian Blue Adult, Male; 1 st & CC PECK S MIAKUSH ASGIER ZEUS Young lad but with excellent development. Head showing pleasing degree of maturity in regard to his age, he has a good shorter wedge, muzzle though generally good has still to acquire more prominence to his whisker pads, slight angle at the eye line in profile, good chin, level bite. The ears are tall in set, with pointed effect to the tips, light internal furnishing & good larger size. Eyes of fuller almond shape, in a slanted marginally deep setting, wonderful green colour. Body is long & lithe well grown & with good muscularity, long slender legs & oval paws, broader base to the tapered tail of well balanced length. His coat was really superb, obvious double qualities, with good density to his undercoat, soft fine to coat. The blue was even & he has a good amount of translucent tipping to create soft shimmer. His condition was splendid & he has a very relaxed composed temperament. 2 nd COOPER S SITHEE FLYING SOLO months, well grown lad, worthy of a CC in his own right. He has a short wedge, but as yet the small age difference making huge difference in their current development, this lad being finer on the muzzle, profile straighter than ideal, this is exacerbated due to the slight taper to his chin, bite marginal scissor. His ears are quite large, set tall & the look enhanced by the pointed effect to their tips, sparsely furnished. Eyes of wide almond shape, slight slant, good depth of green. Body still to acquire a greater degree of masculinity, albeit perfectly in keeping with his 9.5 months of age, Long & slender, very elegant, slim limbs, small neat paws, tail of good length slightly thicker base. His coat ideally requires a little more undercoat, fine, soft top coat. The colour was a soft blue tone the translucent silver sheen still to become more apparent but again in keeping with his young age. He was a very amicable good natured youngster in excellent condition. Russian Blue Adult, Female; 1 st PECK S MIAKUSH AELIA AAFJE Litter sister to male CC winner, This girl has a very short wedge, muzzle development is good, profile has just enough evidence of angle, would benefit with a little more depth of chin, her bite level.

Body is well grown for her young age, quite an elegant appearance, her limbs are quite slender, oval paws, broader base to her tapered tail, almost balanced length. Interesting coat, she has quite a dense undercoat, though it does not stand as well as her brothers & the top coat not the same quality, with a slightly more wispy effect. As a result the tipping to create sheen is not so obvious as yet. Her condition was splendid & her temperament was beautifully composed. 2 nd WILLIAM-ELLIS S SERENNOL SONYA Short wedge, requires a little more prominence to her whisker pads, shallow angle in profile, her chin I would have liked a stronger chin, her bite untidy.

8 tapered tail. Her coat was double quality, with soft dense undercoat, soft fine top standing away from the body. Even blue colour would benefit with a little more translucent tipping.

Her condition was splendid, bit grumbly today (her mood from past experiences is variable) but not difficult. Beautifully developed her maturity combined with superior type, giving her a distinct edge. Also Considered for BOB. STARK S CH DUSHENKA VIOLA HEARTEASE She is at that age where her lack of maturity makers a huge difference, head on her wedge is short from the eyes down, muzzle prominence generally good, slight angle to the profile, her chin requires a little more depth, bite good. Her ears are quite striking, being fixed tall in set, sparse internal furnishing, good larger size. Slight slant to her eyes, which arte wide almond shape, very good green colour. Body is lithe, but still to mature & fill out more, being very slender as yet, long elegant limbs & small neat paws, her tail is long & well balanced. The coat quality is good having good density to her undercoat, soft fine top coat. Colour has good amount of soft sheen evident for her relatively young age, which creates a softer shade of blue.

OAKLEY S GR CH KREMLINKATZ KAZAK KAZAR Head wise this lad, was showing good type, relatively short wedge, some whisker prominence to create broadness, slight concave curve at the eye line to create slight angle, chin & bite both good. I d like his ears a little larger, set well, light internal furnishings. His eyes were a very good green, almond shape, slightly straighter set. Body was long but rather lean& lacked muscle tone, long legs oval paws, tail has slight taper. His coat was rather flat & required ore undercoat, to give density, top coat relatively soft & fine, but the texture appeared slightly dry. Some soft sheen softening the colour to the shorter areas. Gentle nature, I d just like him to be a little heavier. 8

9 Sorrel Abyssinian Neuter 1 st PC & BOB. BARKER S COPPICE FIREFLY Beautifully grow, perhaps slightly long as yet, his head looking a little narrow rather more even than I would wish & requires a little more evidence of gentle contours, his muzzle requires slightly more rounded effect, I d also like to see a little more evidence of curve at his cheek line, brow round gently hint of break in profile, his chin reasonably firm, level bite.

His eyes are beautifully rounded & fully open, excellent deep orange colour (he has a extremely gentle open expression).

BSH j Lilac Tortie, this girl has very good type & though still some maturing to achieve. Apple round head shape & well filled cheeks, rounded brow, strong chin & superficial examination of her bite, is at best questionable, though I am happy enough to give her a placing in a side class she may not fare so well in a Breed Class.

Head is a little longer than wide, with sculpted cheek line, muzzle has some prominence to her whisker pads, flat brow with sight break at the eye line, chin reasonable, bite level. Ears are large, wide at the base, light covering to the outside, angular setting. Body still has some maturing to achieve which at just over 9 months is perfectly understandable, but was weighty & well toned, proportionate limbs, long finger like paws, good length fine tail which she curls tightly against the body, slight lean forward when standing due to her well cushioned paw pads. The body has the finest of down, with no excess just the allowable fine covering over her nose & ears.

11 2 nd MANSARAY S IRREP MAHABUBA. ASH n BCR Brown Ticked Tabby Asian, Brown Ticked, whilst still to attain a more masculine appearance he has come on quite dramatically in a short period of time.

His ears are a larger medium size, now widening off, rounded tips with hint of tilt. Lovely eyes, large & well defined shape, dark rims attractive green colour.

I judged this lad a couple of weeks age & was really pleased to see how much he has developed in a short period of time. (what a difference a few weeks can make. Again another bed, but the temperament was such that it did not hamper judging. X2 nd PECK S MIAKUSH AELIA AAFJE 3 rd GARWOOD S GENIEMAU NEBULA. MAU n 24. Pleasing miss but her colour lacked warmth & not the warm bronze effect I would have wished. Another Bed. X3 rd LINTON-SINCLAIRE S ELFE FERRIQUE YASMIN (imp) DRX a Lovely if rather petite miss, excellent type but somewhat fiery, which makes assessment difficult. She did not wish to be separated from her Wigwam style bed & made her resentment very clear. The other exhibit also had a bed & was quite shy, so preferred digging tightly into the bed.
