FFF 2024 annual banquet

To bring activities of 2024 to a close, FFF held its annual banquet in Thailand on 23rd February 2025.

As expected, we asked a friend to collect the rosettes and trophy on our behalf. 

 After thought:

Unlike CFA which is an international cat fanciers' organisation, FFF focuses on Asia and has a 2 year presence in Hong Kong. We let Stella fully participate in FFF's 2024 cat shows, as we want to see her achievement in the national arena. We prefer FFF over CFA because of its fewer show competition, hence, less pressure and more economical. 

In 2024, 3 shows were held in Hong Kong, with a total of 16 rings. As national ranking is based on accumulated scores the cat obtained during that year, with 20-30% less show competition than its Asian counterparts (especially SE Asia), by default, its virtually very difficult for a Hong Kong competitor to attain high national ranking. This, to us is a flaw in the system, which we can only accept. 

Nevertheless, Stella did well in the Hong Kong shows, with the following results:

Overall, for 2024, regionally, Stella was the Best Alter in Hong Kong. Nationally, she ranked 13th in the Alter category. To our surprise, she was amongst one of the three cats to win the special award of Best Condition nationally - a pride for Hong Kong?! (P.S. in the video, the photo said its Best Head, which is incorrect)

All the rosettes awarded in 2024

Our heartfelt thanks to all the judges who used Stella in their finals: Daisy Wong for entrusting us with Stella and grooming her to perfection for each show competition; Auntie Rowena for all her love and care towards Stella; Mandy Tang for her heads up on Stella when she was first available and continuous care and support thereafter; to our Taiwanese friends for the banquet video and representing us in the occasion. 

Above all, thanks be to God for this adorable child and may she continue to be a rising star bringing warmth, love and laughter to all she knows!
