He is also Event Co-Ordinator for the GCCF Supreme Show, a member of GCCF Genetics Committee, Chair of the Breed Advisory Committee Review Group, President of the Rex Cat Club, RagaMuffin Cat Club, Progressive Ragdoll Cat Club and Vice-president of the Red Point and Tortie Point Siamese Cat Club. John breeds primarily Siamese, Oriental and Cornish Rex under the prefix Pannaduloa. RING 2 – ALL GROUPS FROM NSW MARGARET SIM - NSWCFA I have always had cats, firstly moggies then my father bred Seal Point Siamese. I met a pair of Burmese in the early 1970's and fell in total love with them, specially the Blue Burmese. When I settled down in Sydney I went in search of a Blue Burmese and ended up with a Lilac and Chocolate – they converted my partner Don to cats and in particular Burmese. He in turn converted me to Labrador Retrievers. We moved out of the city to Moss Vale, we had space and time so I commenced breeding and showing in 1987 under the prefix Bima. I breed all colours of Burmese and love them all but my favourites are blue, red and blue tortie. This led to stewarding which gave me a love of many other breeds and in 1994 I commenced a judging course. I completed Group 2 in 1996, Group 3 in 1998 and in 2009 completed Group 1. I have judged in most states of Australia as well as in New Zealand. I have been involved in clubs as club secretary, committee member and am currently President of the Burmese Cat Society of Australasia. I have experience as show manager as well as working in card rooms and trophies, also lots of experience setting up and pulling down shows. In my other life I am a registered nurse and midwife and currently work in a neonatal nursery. I have experience in management, aged care, education, women's health, aboriginal health, community health and paediatrics. My other interests are gardening, patchwork and quilting. 3 RING 3 – ALL GROUPS FROM VIC CINDY GRIMES - FCCV I have always had a cat in my life since I was toddler & they all have been my best friends. I became involved in the cat fancy since 1997 when I started showing desexed Spotted Mist cats (aka Australian Mist) as they were known then, which I bred & showed till 2008 under the Djindi prefix. In 2004 was captivated by the beautiful soft curly coat of the Selkirk Rex & started breeding them in 2005 under the prefix Purrcurls. During my time as a breeder I have bred Exotics, Persians & British Shorthair under the Djindi prefix. I have been the GCCFV Inc Group 3 Breeder of the Year from 2015 – 2017. In 2018 my first Russian litter was born. Since 1997 I have been an active member of any organisation I have had membership with. I have been show manager for affiliate clubs, the GCCFV Inc and the Royal RASV show. I qualified as a steward in 1999; been the assistant secretary of the GCCFV from 2008 – 2014; & the Group3 Registrar from 2010 – 2017. I qualified as an Open All Shorthair Judge in June 2014 and became a Senior All Shorthair Judge in June 2015. I am qualified as an ACF Inc All Breeds Judge in 2018. I have judged in most states of Australia and have judged in New Zealand in 2016 and 2017. Every Exhibit gets a Rosette to take home We will be placing a Rosette on every cage.

  • Tipper's Story
    TIPPER’S STORY I breed a Purebred cat- The RagaMuffin. Although a healthy breed, it seems like the past 9 months I have had an issue or two. Nothing serious, a running eye in one or two, sneezing occasionally. I keep them clean and have eye ointment if needed. I keep a normal vaccination schedule. I start kittens at 8 weeks with the Heska Ultra-Nasal FVRCP vac- cine. Then 12 weeks, then 16 weeks. For RagaMuffins we then do a booster of the same vaccine each year. I test for FeLV and FIP randomly and we have always been negative. The only health problem (and this is an unproven allegation) I have had is a kitten I sold to a fellow breeder that claimed he has Strep-G. One of the kittens died and she began to give the other Clindamycin and they seemed to do well and are ok now. She never tested him or provided any records to me as outlined in our contract. During research, I found Group G Strep. Are they the same thing? About 5 months ago one of my Dams had complications after delivering her kittens. We lost her. We were devasted! But, her kittens were ok except for the fact they were born in the vet’s office. I had another Mom, so I put the kittens on her and bottled fed “the odd man out”. I gave them Co- lostrum even though I think they got mamas. After a few days, only one kitten survived, “Tipper” so we bottle fed him for quite a while.

  • Animalogy: Cats and Other Felines by Bassam Imam
    ANIMALOGY: CATS AND OTHER FELINES BY BASSAM IMAM 1 POPULAR CAT BREEDS The Abyssinian is a very popular breed of cat. Although the exact origin of this cat is unknown, it was first officially recorded in 1871 in England. It was initially called the British Ticked cat. The Abyssinian wasn’t ‘fully incorporated’ into the U.S. until the 1930s. In addition, there are some physical similarities between this cat and the Ancient Egyptian cats. However, other theories point to South East Asia, the Indian Ocean, or a relation to the African wild cat. There’s no reason for us to ponder about this. Let the experts deal with it. The Abyssinian is a very intelligent, energetic, gentle, loving, and often distrustful of strangers, is social (with those it knows) and doesn’t like to be left alone. It is slim, with large sized ears (must be cleaned on a regular basis) pointing slightly forwards, giving it an alert expression. The 2 coat is ticked. This cat can be trained to walk on leash. Abyssinians weigh 6 to 10 lbs. The American Bobtail (Bobtail) was recently (2006) accepted for championship status by the Cat Fancier’s Association (CFA). The Bobtail is medium-large to large, highly intelligent, devoted and loving towards the whole family including dogs and other pets, has a wild cat and athletic appearance, a hunting gaze, muscular and is naturally bobtailed (naturally occurring short-tailed, 1 to 4 inches long). Also, it can be trained to play fetch and to be walked on leash. This cat is adaptable.
