Title: Humberside Show Braggette
Post by: Indys Mamma on April 11, 2009, 20:50:03 PM

EEEEEEEEEeeeeeeeee!


We had a great day apart from a couple bits...

Indy seems to have been car-sick today... drooling great slobbery streaks of drool... yet in behaviour perfectly normal other than a bit sleepy, mentioned to vet at vetting in and he said Indy was fine... was fine all day then did same on way home... got home and perked up again.... can they get carsick from an air freshener? as the only change in the car was a sandlewood air freshener that my bro bought the other week and Indy has never done this before, even traveling longer distances.

Also the owner of another cat tried to make me feel guilty about Indy winning his open, getting all teary and telling me how it was terrible cos her cat was a rescue and was so lovely that she thought she ought to have won...

anyways... ignoring that...

Heya!

Misha first... he won his open of one :p but his critique from one of his judges was amazing. The judge said he has a lovely strong jaw, a great square muzzle, sturdy neck and his skin and coat are in such perfect condition that he has never seen better, even on a pedigree!

I am so proud of Misha for his very first show, he was so relaxed and friendly and had several cuddles... I think he really enjoyed himself.


Indy won his open too, against a very pretty all white girl. I was actually not expecting that, I was expecting her to win...
He really excelled himself today, Indy is a solemn lil guy with huge eyes and normally fairly shy, a side effect from living such an isolated life... today he was quite lovey and giving hugs with abandon.

now the big brag!

He went on to win Best in Show Non-Pedigree  :faint: though the rosette says 'Best In Show Pedigree' which I think proves what I said all along... Indy is a pedigree moggy  :rofl:

Misha right at home in 30 seconds flat

Indy had an upset (being poked by people) so popped in with Misha for a few mins to calm again, after judging finished of course

I'm sorry I missed you at Bam Bam's pen I was most probably just the other side watching the BOV persian judging.

Hope Indy is feeling better.
