Miss S Rabey

Many thanks to Grace Wylde and the committee for the invitation to judge the Non Pedigree and Pedigree Pets classes.  It was a pleasure to be able to award certificates.  The Celtic is such a lovely show with a great lunch and of course the welsh cakes!
AC Non-Pedigree Master Cat (Grand Class)
1st and GMC Mrs D M Woolridge’s MC Tom (Short Hair Tabby & White) MN 2 yrs 3 mths.  Wow!!!  What a gorgeous handsome boy!  Very friendly, loved having a cuddle and a look around at what was going on.  Beautiful presentation, spotless white with a very nice tabby pattern.  A pleasure to award him the Grand certificate.  Well done!

AC Pedigree Pet Master Cat (Grand Class)
This was an incredibly hard class to judge and I really did have to split hairs to come up with a winner!
1st and GMC Mrs J D Plant’s MC Silver Sam (White with Black Tips) MN 8 years.  What a beautiful handsome boy!  So, so friendly and loved having a cuddle.  He had the most mesmerising green eyes, they made me want to melt.  Beautiful grooming and he is in such great condition for his age, it was because of this that Silver Sam got the Grand.  He is an obviously much loved pet, I loved his fluffy feet!!
2nd Mrs M Howes MC Cheetah (Short Hair Spotted Brown Tabby) MN 1 year 10mths.  Another gorgeous boy, very sweet temperament and very vocal when I put him back in his pen!  I think he would have stayed out all day with me given the chance!  Very good grooming, lovely soft coat.  Beautiful amber eyes, very expressive and alert.  Obviously another much loved pet.  It was only down to Silver Sam’s age that he got the Grand today, how I wish I had 2 to award!!

LH/SLH Self with or without white adult.
CNH Mrs L Ruel’s Golly (Long Hair Black) MN 2yrs 10 mths.  I am so sorry but I wasn’t able to judge this boy.  He just wouldn’t come out of his pen no matter how hard we tried.  He really wasn’t a happy boy at all.

1st and MC Mr J E and Mrs J D Emery’s Mouse (Short Hair Tabby and White)  FN 9 months.  What a lovely young girl, she was a little grumbly coming out of the pen but seemed happy when out.  She loves having a fuss and cuddle!  Very well groomed, lovely pattern and colour.  I love her necklaces and little ear tufts.  Sparkling white and lovely eyes.  A very promising young lady and congratulations on her Best in Show.

Persian Self Grand Champion Male; GCC PHILLIPS’ CH SYBARIT KNOCKOUT (IMP) (70 3, 8/5/06). Impressive Blue Exotic lad with a very broad masculine head. Neat ears set low. Bold eyes of good size & shape, deep cooper in colour. Very short broad nose. Full cheeks & firm chin. Bite almost level. Well prepared coat, standing out well from his body. Mid blue in colour, just minimally shady. Just a touch of staining to his face at present. Quite a cobby body, just looking a fraction tall on his legs today. Short tail to balance.

Eyes of good size – shape could be a touch rounder. Pale orange & pale blue in colour. Very short broad nose. Full cheeks & firm chin. Level bite. Coat fairly full & well prepared – just quite a lot of old coat present making the texture a touch harsh. She’s looking a touch leggy at present due to being in summer coat, but her body is well grown & the shape is quite cobby. Short full tail.

Mid cream was only evident to her chin & to the base of her tail. Otherwise the rest of her coat was mid blue & rather shady at present. Fairly well grown with cobby body shape. Short full tail. As she is just a youngster, hopefully the cream will come through as her adult coat develops. I would love to see her in full coat as she has super type.

Mr K Scruton

I was pleased to be able to help out when Malcolm Brace had to withdraw close to the day I hope that the exhibitors were not too disappointed. It was a very friendly well run show and I thank Grace and the committee for their kind hospitality. My thanks also go to my very efficient steward, Andrew, who was a tower of strength during a busy day.

Long body that has yet to muscle-up carried high on the legs and complemented by a long tail. Coat attractively marked.
