The 5th Cat City CFA International Cat Show, Kuching, Sarawak, 27 & 28 April 2013

The 5th Cat City CFA International Cat Show was held in Kuching, Sarawak on 27 & 28 April 2013. For those who do not know the Malay language, "kuching" or "kucing" means cat. So it was very apt that the final cat show for this season be held in the town of Kuching.

For this show, we entered Putra, Tuksido, Iftar, Addira, Electra and Addy. Muezza was again left behind as he was still not in show condition.

Judges for this show were Vicki Abelson, Gloria Hoover, Kathy Black, Jan Rogers, Irina Tokmakova,Vicky Nye, John Webster and Irina Kharchenko. Thanks to the judges for using our cats in the finals but we would like to say that the organisers of this show rocks! Thank you for making this show the most fun of all CFA shows I have attended. Your team took good care of us by meeting us at the airport, ensuring we made it in time for the show by arranging for the transport, taking us around Kuching town, the dinner etc etc. Kudos to everyone including the hard working ring clerks, the master clerk, the bus drivers, the helpers etc, without you, we would never have been able to transport our cats to and from the show hall and to and from the airport. Of course nothing is perfect (esp the noisy side event) but overall, it was FUN!

So how did the Lagenda team do this time? We are very, very, very proud to announce that Putra, Electra and Addy came home as Grands and Electra was also 9th best premier! Now the Lagenda house has two Grand Champions and two Grand Premiers. :) Tuksido also did well, he was 2nd Best of Breed in Irina's ring - am very proud of you baby :)

Malaysia 2013 Finale Cat Show, 20 & 21 April 2013

The Malaysia 2013 Finale Cat Show held on 20 & 21 April 2013, was a memorable one for us as this is the first time we entered as an exhibitor under Lagenda Cattery and also opened a booth for Qitta Catz. We
thoroughly enjoyed the show, thanks to the organisers, and made new friends - there were lots of newbies as well. We entered Putra, Tuksido, Iftar, Addira and Boboy for the show. We had to leave Muezza home coz he had scratched himself silly and the scars had not healed yet. Addy was also present so there were six of us at the show.
It was supposed to be an 8-ring show but one of the judges, Mary Auth could not make it due to some issues with her flight. The judges this time around were Diana Rothermel, Allan Raymond, Rod U'ren, Cheryle U'ren, Wakako Nagayam, Yaeko Takano and Gary Veach.
Even though our pedigrees did not make the finals, our LagendaryBoboy jointly won the Highest Scoring HHP together with Ash's Archie.
Putra was best champion at Yaeko Takano's ring. According to reliable witnesses, Putra actually played in Yaeko's ring - so happy coz he is such a timid boy. The best surprise was when Addira was reclassified as a calico instead of a brown patch by Gary Veach. Oh wow, our very own home-bred calico maine coon - how cool is that!
Anyway, thanks to the organisers for a wonderful time (love the goodies) and also the judges for using our cat in the finals. Enjoy the photos....
