4 PLEASE NOTE You may enter your cat in only one of Breed, Grand and Imperial Classes, and the class entered must be the one competing for a certificate towards the lowest title it does not hold. Thus Untitled cats may be entered in the appropriate Breed/Colour Class Champions/Premiers/Mastercats may be entered only in the appropriate Grand Class Grand titled cats may be entered only in the appropriate Imperial Class Imperial or Olympian titled cats may be entered only in the appropriate Olympian Class. Any cat may be entered for Best of Breed only: all cats not entered in the appropriate breed class will automatically be considered for Best of Breed (judged by the judge of the Breed class) unless you explicitly withdraw them from such consideration. If a cat you have entered wins a higher title after you make your entry but before the published closing date of the show or any extended closing date published on the GCCF website, you MUST inform the show manager, so that it may be moved up a class. Introduction of EMS breed Codes In all paperwork produced for shows, cats breeds are described by EMS codes rather than old GCCF breed numbers. This does not mean that you need to enter the EMS code on your entry form. It is as ever recommended that you take the registration details from your registration or transfer certificate if that includes an EMS code, then you should certainly use it. Alternatively, if you can use the GCCF online services to look up the details for your cat, then you can use the EMS code you will find there. But failing either of these, please use the GCCF breed number as on your registration or transfer certificate - do not try to translate it into an EMS code. Whatever you use it will be translated to an EMS code in all official paperwork. Variants Balinese, Oriental Longhair and Bicolour Variants and Pointed Oriental Longhairs are shown in the class for the breed they resemble, and against the standard of points for that breed. If recently registered, their registration certificate should contain a second breed code (in parentheses) and this defines the appropriate breed class for the cat. Alternatively, using GCCF online services the breed as which a cat is to be shown is also given among its details. This and not its main breed number should be the one quoted as the cat s breed number for its show entry.

5 SHOW RULES, PROCEDURES AND REGULATIONS This show is licensed by the Governing Council of the Cat Fancy and is open to all. Copies of the GCCF Rules and Bye-Laws are available from the GCCF Office, 5 King s Castle Business Park, The Drove, Bridgwater, Somerset TA6 4AG. Please make sure that you read and understand these and this schedule before entering the show. IGNORANCE OF THESE RULES WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED AS AN EXCUSE FOR THEIR BREACH. ELIGIBILITY Siamese, Balinese and Oriental Adults, Kittens and Neuters are eligible for competition at this Show if registered with the GCCF. Other cats may be entered on Exhibition. All registrations and/or transfers must have reached the GCCF Office 10 days before the date of the show or the exhibit will be DISQUALIFIED. If you have entered the exhibit in your name and it is transferred away from you BEFORE THIS DATE it will also be DISQUALIFIED because the entry form becomes invalid. If you have not yet got the registration number when you enter, write NAF (name applied for) instead, fill in the name you have applied for, and send the number and any change of name to the Show Manager when they arrive. SHOW ENTRY FORM This schedule contains details of the classes for both the SPSCC and SCSBE shows, and entry forms for both shows. Please be careful to use the correct entry form for the show you are entering. If you wish to enter a cat in both shows, you must complete entry forms for each. In order to exhibit at the show you must complete the official entry form and read and sign the declaration. The information on the entry form must be identical to that on the registration/transfer certificate except for the addition of GCCF titles see the section on Status of Errors later in the schedule. If the cat is registered in joint ownership either or both owners may sign the form. If you are entering a cat in single ownership and one in joint ownership, please use separate forms. If you are entering a cat on exhibition the show entry form must be completed exactly as for competition entries, marking the appropriate exhibition class in the Classes box. EXHIBITORS ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE CORRECT DESCRIPTION OF THEIR EXHIBITS AND FOR ENTERING THEM IN THE CORRECT CLASSES. Exhibits entered in the wrong class will be disqualified from the class concerned and it may not be possible to move them into the correct class on the show day. If you re-register the colour of your cat please let the Show Manager know immediately so that it can be judged as the correct colour on the day. Please check your entry very carefully to make sure that it is clear and legible, that you have entered your cat in the correct classes, that you have signed the form and that you have sent the correct money. If you find errors in your entry these may be corrected on Show day if it is too late to do so beforehand. Please be sure to indicate which exhibits have been entered in both shows. Please note closing date 1st Feb 2016 (receipt). Please send your entry promptly and do not wait until the last minute. You may details of your entry to the show manager (see entry form for details) to ensure its arrival despite the postal service. List FULL details of exhibit, parents, classes, payments & exhibitor (as on entry form) in the body of your but you MUST also send the signed entry form and cheque by post. Alternatively, online entry is available see links on the GCCF and club websites. If you do not have an address, please include a stamped addressed envelope for acknowledgement of your entry (If you do have an address, please remember to put it on your form - and please remember to check your in case of queries) PRE-SHOW PREPARATION Please make sure that your exhibit is clean and healthy before arriving at the show. All exhibits must be vaccinated against FIE, FVR & FCV ( cat flu ). The full course, or booster, in accordance with the manufacturer s recommendations, must have been completed more than seven days before the show. The certificate must have been issued by a veterinary practice/hospital and the last vaccination entry signed by a Veterinary Surgeon or by a listed Veterinary Nurse under the direction of a Veterinary Surgeon. Cats with an invalid vaccination certificate will be rejected under Section A. Cats unaccompanied by a vaccination certificate will also be rejected under Section A unless the exhibitor undertakes to provide proof of vaccination by sending the certificate to the GCCF Office within seven days of the show. Failure to do so will lead to disqualification from the show and the cat s name will be placed on the rejection list until proof of vaccination is received in the Office. Please note that homoeopathic vaccination cannot be accepted for the purposes of showing under section 4 rule 5.

6 The vaccination certificate must be completed with the full details of the cat and the owner. Please check your cats claws and, if necessary, trim them before the show - be sure not to cut the quick. If you have to bath your cat please be very careful which shampoo you use. Many shampoos and grooming products sold for cats contain colouring matter and if you use one of these your cat could be disqualified. The use of any products, including skullcap & valerian, rescue remedy, sedatives for travel etc, which change a cat s appearance or physical reaction is forbidden and will lead to disqualification. ARRIVAL AT THE SHOW Exhibits will be received at the entrance to the Show Hall from 8 until 9.45 on the morning of the show. All exhibits must be brought to the show in suitable secure containers (top-opening preferred) and must be accompanied by their owners or representatives who must remain within call throughout the period of the Show except when the hall is cleared for judging. Exhibits will only be accepted on condition that the Club shall not be held responsible for any loss or damage to any exhibits, containers or property in any way. If a cat cannot be removed from its container safely it may not be vetted in. All exhibits must be examined by the Show s Honorary Veterinary Surgeons who are authorised to exclude any exhibit that they consider unfit for competition. No exhibit may be penned before being examined. Exhibits must show no signs of ill health, parasites, skin lesions or use of drugs. Coats and ears must be clean. Entire males over nine months of age must have both testicles present in the scrotum. Pregnant or lactating queens or queens who have kittened within twelve weeks before this show may not be exhibited. Declawed cats may not be exhibited. Rejected exhibits must be removed by their owners and entry fees forfeited. Owners of rejected exhibits, together with their other exhibits, may also be debarred from entering the Show Hall. THE DUTY VETERINARY SURGEON S DECISION IS FINAL CLEARANCE If your cat is rejected from a show please note the following points: 1. When sending your clearance certificate to the GCCF Office please include your copy of the rejection form. 2. Please do not send these certificates by recorded delivery post as this can cause considerable delay. If you wish to be sure they have arrived enclose a stamped addressed postcard which can be signed and returned to you. 3. Exhibitors should not attend shows until they have received a letter from the Office accepting and confirming clearance. Take this letter with you to any shows you attend within one month of its issue. PRESENTATION Take pride in presenting your exhibit. Be sure that it is comfortable, warm and relaxed. You must provide each exhibit with a white litter tray (with its usual litter) and a white water bowl which must stay in the pen all day. Food may be given (in white bowls) but must be removed before judging starts at am and not replaced until Each exhibit must have a clean plain white or near-white blanket or blankets without distinctive marking or edging, which may be arranged in such a manner to assist the comfort of the cat. Cellular blankets are not allowed but white Vet-bed or like material may be used if preferred. The only source of heating allowed in the pen is a hot water bottle or heat reflecting material, which must be out of sight under the blanket. No written or printed matter of any kind other than the official notices and award cards may be placed on the pens of exhibits in competition. None of the equipment in the pen may bear any distinguishing marks. JUDGES ARE INSTRUCTED TO PASS ANY PEN THAT IS DISTINGUISHED IN ANY MANNER. One small toy may be placed in the pen when you return to it at Exhibition pens are designed to form a display and may be decorated in any way you wish, but please make sure that there is ample room for the cat to be comfortable. Catalogue vouchers and exhibitors passes will be handed to you at vetting-in. There will not be any tallies at this show so please check your pen number carefully and make sure you pen your cat correctly. Show equipment, litter, accessories etc. will be on sale at the show hall. Aerosols, sprays and toxic disinfectants may not be used in the show hall. Exhibits actually received into the Show Hall cannot be removed without the permission of the Show Manager. The Show closes at 5.00 pm and no exhibit may be removed from its pen before this time. Anyone breaking this rule could be DISQUALIFIED and forfeit any prize money and awards. Judges are empowered to withhold any award in any class if the exhibits do not, in the Judge s opinion, possess sufficient merit.

Any person in any way interfering with or removing any exhibit from its pen during the Show, except with the permission of the Show Manager, will forfeit any award that may be due. THE COMMITTEE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO: 1. Appoint other judges should those advertised be unable to fulfil their engagements and to appoint further judges if required. 2. Fix and limit the number of exhibits to the show and to accept or refuse entry without giving reasons. 3. Cancel, amalgamate or divide classes. 4.

Retain a percentage of the entry fees to cover essential expenses in the event of the show being cancelled for any reason. An announcement on the GCCF or clubs websites of any alterations or additions made to the schedule or regulations shall be deemed sufficient notice thereof.

8 STATUS OF ERRORS - WHAT TO EXPECT MINOR ERRORS. These warrant a notification for your reference if the error occurs more than once and it is apparent that registration details were available at the time of entry or before the date of the Show. Continuous repetition of the same error after notification will be referred to the Executive Committee. Examples of minor errors include: (a) (b) (c) (d) (e) (f) (g) Spelling errors. Separation of cat's name that should be one word and vice versa. Administrative/breeder's prefix omitted from, or partially incorrect name given for, exhibit. Overseas title preceding the name of an exhibit, sire or dam, etc. Full breed number known but not given. Sire and Dam reversed or named incorrectly. Breeder joint when single and vice versa. INCORRECT DATE OF BIRTH. This is usually classed as a minor error unless it affects an entry into classes based on age groups, when it could warrant disqualification of the exhibit from such classes, but if the incorrect date of birth affects the age suitability as a whole, then the exhibit will be disqualified from the Show. N.B. AGE LIMITS: Kittens not less than 14 weeks and under 9 calendar months on date of Show, Adults not less than 9 calendar months on date of Show INCORRECT NAME OF EXHIBIT/OWNER/BREEDER If registration/transfer details were obviously available at the time of entry or before the date of the Show, disqualification is inevitable. The following discrepancies are those which usually arise :- EXHIBIT REGISTERED OWNER (EXHIBITOR) BREEDER Totally incorrect name Joint when they should be single, and vice versa Declaration not signed by registered owner(s) Totally incorrect name or names N.B. The breeder of a cat is always the registered owner of the dam on the date of the cat's birth. REGISTRATION/TRANSFER NOT RECEIVED BY GCCF 10 DAYS BEFORE THE DATE OF THE SHOW. These entries will be disqualified. Remember, the effective date of all registrations and transfers is the first date of valid receipt by the GCCF, and if you enclose your own stamped addressed acknowledgement card with your application form this will be stamped with the GCCF Office date of receipt. TRANSFER OF EXHIBIT FROM EXHIBITOR TO A NEW OWNER RECEIVED BY GCCF MORE THAN 10 DAYS BEFORE THE DATE OF THE SHOW. Entries such as these will also be disqualified as the Exhibitor's entry form becomes invalid. INCORRECT CLASS ENTRY. These will be disqualified from the class concerned - so always check with the Show Manager if in doubt about which class to enter. If a breed number is changed officially, it is important that you notify the Show Manager immediately. Exhibits entered in Grand classes must have gained their title before the published closing date if the show. CAT REGISTERED ON THE REFERENCE REGISTER. Some cats registered on this Register are not eligible to be shown and, therefore, these entries could be disqualified. One exception to this is when a new breed becomes recognised, and then cats of the breed may be shown, even if they are registered on the Reference Register as long as this was the only reason for the Reference registration. Exhibitors may appeal against any disqualification resulting from the Show checking, giving their reasons. The appeal will be referred to the Executive Committee if considered valid and, if not, a letter of explanation will be sent to the exhibitor(s). The above advice, however, is aimed to keep your show entries trouble-free, not to mention the show checking.

9 OLYMPIAN GRAND CHAMPIONS AND OLYMPIAN GRAND PREMIERS The title of Olympian Grand Champion has three levels: Bronze, Silver and Gold. For each level of the title, a cat must be awarded five Olympian Certificates by five different Judges (but the judges need not be different between different levels). At most one of the five certificates required at each level may be awarded at a specialist Breed show. To compete in an Olympian Grand Champion Class, a cat must be a full Imperial Grand Champion by the published closing date of the show. Only one prize, with a Reserve in case of disqualification, will be awarded. The title of Olympian Grand Premier shall be granted to neutered Cats under the same Rules and Conditions as for Olympian Grand Champion. IMPERIAL GRAND CHAMPIONS AND IMPERIAL GRAND PREMIERS The title of Imperial Grand Champion shall be granted to a Cat awarded five Imperial Grand Certificates by five different Judges. To compete in an Imperial Grand Champion Class, a cat must be a full Grand Champion by the published closing date of the show. Only one prize, with a Reserve in case of disqualification, will be awarded. The title of Imperial Grand Premier shall be granted to neutered Cats under the same Rules and Conditions as for Imperial Grand Champion. GRAND CHAMPIONS AND GRAND PREMIERS The title of Grand Champion shall be granted to a Cat awarded three Grand Challenge Certificates by three different Judges. To compete in a Grand Champion Class, a cat must be a full Champion by the published closing date of the show. Only one prize, with a Reserve in case of disqualification, will be awarded. The title of Grand Premier shall be granted to neutered Cats under the same Rules and Conditions as for Grand Champion. CHAMPIONS AND PREMIERS The title of Champion for Cats and Premier for Neuters shall be granted to Exhibits winning three Challenge Certificates at three Shows, under separate Judges. A GCCF Challenge Certificate will be offered for each Adult/Neuter Breed Class of recognised Breeds with Championship status. COUNTERSIGNATURES In the event of a change of judge of an Open class occurring after the closing date of the show, and provided that the exhibitor informs the show manager, prior to judging, that a certificate has previously been awarded by the replacement judge, the show manager shall appoint one other judge who shall judge the cat and if the cat is considered worthy, countersign the certificate, which shall then count towards Championship status. If the replacement judge at the first show has also previously been booked for a subsequent show, the closing date of which is before the date of the first show and where the actual entry has been made and received before the date of the first show, then at the subsequent show this judge can be regarded as a replacement judge for the purpose of requesting a countersignature When a cat which has been awarded a certificate at the Supreme show is entered under the same judge, for the equivalent certificate, during the following three months, then at one subsequent show this judge can be regarded as a replacement judge for the purpose of requesting a countersignature CORRESPONDENCE All correspondence must be accompanied by a stamped addressed envelope if a reply is required. Any complaints relating to the Show must be forwarded, in writing, to the Show Managers within seven days of the Show. WITHDRAWALS All withdrawals must be made in writing. No withdrawals can be accepted after the published closing date for entries or any extended closing date published on the GCCF website. If your cat is ill and you enclose a veterinary certificate we may be able to refund some of your entry fees, at the discretion of the Committee, depending upon when such notification is received and how much work has already been done with regard to your entry. The Show will close at 5pm, unless the Show Manager decides otherwise. No cat may be removed from its pen before this time. Any exhibitor interfering with or removing any cat from its pen during the show, except with the consent of the Show Manager, will forfeit any award that may be due to his or her exhibit. THERE WILL BE NO EARLY REMOVAL PASSES NO SMOKING IN THE COMPLEX ABBREVIATIONS LH Long Haired, SH Short Haired, M Male, F Female, MN Male Neuter, FN Female Neuter, SOP Standard of Points, AC Any Colour, AOC Any Other Colour, GCCF Governing Council of the Cat Fancy
