Stella went for her maiden CFA cat show on 27th-28th January 2024 in the HK Convention and Exhibition Centre. Its a 2 day show, from around 11am to 7pm. There were 6 rings to compete in each day, and if she is lucky to get into the finals, she would have to present herself for 12 times daily.
For the first day, because she was a new comer, she was assigned to the Open category, for which she would try to win as many small rosettes as she could in order to be promoted to the Grand Premier Category ASAP. At the maximum, each cat could get 2 small rosettes in each ring. They being - Best All Breed, 2nd Best All Breed, Best Long Hair, 2nd Best Long Hair, Best Short Hair, 2nd Best Long Hair. Exotic Shorthair because of the Persian breed was classified as Long Hair Cats. Other popular breeds in this class include Maine Coon, Norwegian Forest, Persian, Ragdoll, Siberian etc.
The first day was not too difficult for her. Of the 6 rings, she came out empty handed in only one. To our surprise, she was also awarded a big rosette in one ring in addition to the 2 smaller rosettes. She ended the day with a total of 8 small rosettes, one big rosette and became a one day Grand.
Overall, I believe Stella is starting to know the game. She had more interaction with the judges although she likes to look at the audience or maybe trying to locate us. She was more relaxed - willing to eat and sleep on site. Strategy wise, if serious about competitions, then save it till Stella is fully grown!
Stella completed her second charity work - donations made on 3rd February 2024.
Betty dear,
Happy Birthday!
Wishing you Good Health and Happiness Always!
Stella made her debut in the FFF (Feline Fanciers' Federation) Cat Show in Emax on 19th November 2023. Its an eye opening experience for her. As expected, the bright and noisy surrounding made her a bit tense. However, her daring and curious character enabled her to adapt well - not afraid of being put in cages, being examined by strangers, big wandering eyes busily taking note of the surrounding.
