Can you tell us all about your wonderful Supreme winning cat please?

What advice would you give to someone who’s starting and thinking about showing their cat? What tips would you give them?
Enjoy the show and ask judges their opinion. Speak to people, and ask questions. There are some really nice people that show.
Can you describe the Supreme for someone who’s never been?
Magic and you never know how far you’re going to go till it’s over but what a ride it can be!
How did it feel to win the Supreme 2026?
My heart was in my mouth most of the time and stopped beating once or twice, but the feeling was like being on a rollercoaster. I was so proud of my girl.
