brigg show

had a fabulous weekend at the Brigg TICA show. Saturday. My daughter Katey, ran Just Jack of Purebliss on 26th March and supremed him in Pascal Remy's ring as Best Household Pet. Jack finalled in all 5 rings on the Saturday, and he was up against some gorgeous household pets with fabulous temperaments, and personalities and that's what a household pet is all about - loving, playful, friendly natures with wonderful personalities. The judges are lovely with our household pets and handle them with great care and understanding. As many of you know, Jack is shown as a household pet due to his brain damage, so he can be a little wobbly at times, but the judges take good care of him when judging. Also, the other household pet owners have welcomed Jack, Katey and me with open hearts and into their world of showing household pets and i can honestly say its a real pleasure to be with them. GC Purebliss Pleasuredome (aka Frankie) finalled in 4 out of the 5 rings on Saturday making him a Double Grand Champion. we met up with some good friends as we always do at these fabulous TICA shows, and also made new friends. Sunday Jack was finalled in all 5 rings again - its such a shame when the household pets have to be knocked out and not finalled, but we can't help being proud of Jack. Frankie finalled in 4 out of 5 rings again, and although Genevieve didn't final him she did give him 2nd Best of Breed. We were honoured that sue gave Frankie her Best Shorthair Cat award in her solo ring. Sunday Evening Tally started contractions - Tally is Chris and Wendy's girl from poshpaws - staying with us whilst Chris and Wendy's grandson grows a little. Although Tally was a wonderful mum, she didn't break the first bag so it meant i couldn't leave her. Best thing was to take her up to bed, so she joined me for the night in bed along with the TV. She was wonderful if not a little too fond of waking me up if i dare fall asleep for a second. Tally had her last kitten about 4am this morning. 2 snow spotted, 1 silver spotted, and 1 brown spotted Bengal kitten - all gorgeous healthy kittens all at their mothers milk bar. Tally is a wonderful mum and piles them all up in the corner of her birthing box when she leaves them - not a sound is heard from her contented kittens. Another sleepless night, but well worth it.
