Title: Show Brag!!! (with pics)
Post by: Team Svartalfheims on May 21, 2008, 12:08:54 PM
I spent last weekend at a show in Lincoln with Boopy and 2 of her kittens and what an amazing weekend it was (after I got over the shock of how much Star has grown  :evillaugh:).

Boopy won her class on Saturday so she is now a Champion  :cheer: :cheer: :cheer:

On Saturday Star won his class, won Best in Variety and was Nominated for Best in Show and Minxy won her class. Star was judged by a judge from Norway who said that if his triangle was 2mm longer he’d be perfect and that his boning is out of this world  :) :)

On Sunday Minxy again won her class and was Nominated for Best in Show (she lost when it came down to a split vote at the end and the deciding judge chose the other cat). Star came second in his class.

The kittens also entered some side classes and I was very pleased with their results on both days considering the size of the classes but most notably Star won Best Novice on Saturday (Minxy came 2nd to him) and on Sunday he won Best Debuntante and Best Breeder!!

To say I am thrilled with these results and the judges comments is an understatement! I am so proud of my precious Boopy and her babies. Star and Minxy were so relaxed at the show considering it was their first show. Star kept falling asleep when he was waiting to be judged and even fell asleep when being judged  :evillaugh: 

Some pics from the show:

Great news!!

I had the page open earlier and my colleague saw Star. He asked what age he was. When I told him, he was flabbergasted. We had to visit your website so he could see the size of Bilbo. I think we have someone else particularly interested in the NFC now!!!  :naughty:

Star's not a huge amount smaller than Bilbo now!! Star's owner met Star's Daddy Alfie on Monday and nearly fell over with shock at the sheer size of him  :evillaugh:

Yay glad we've got another NFC convert!

they have gotten so HUGE so quickly!!! and boning is far more important than having a 2 mm longer triangle! You are clearly breeding good solid, well-proportioned cats! well done you! and of course, your little band of stars!!! :Luv:
