It was a privilege to be invited to this predigest show and I thank Lynda and each and everyone of her team for a most enjoyable day. A huge thank you to Debbie Newman, my chief steward, who put together the rest of my team in the form of Simone Roper and Kirstyn Nicholas, who worked so well together and made my day.

Her tortie colours are vibrant with her white pristine. Rectangular body set on the very best of thick well bred strong bone and large round paws. All very well presented with a full tail balancing with body.

He has a great length to width head ratio with balancing tall ears, full round eyes set wide apart with a slight oblique aperture. His soft kitten coat was showing good markings in all areas, but he missed out on being considered for first placing due to needing a little more work on grooming to his under-parts.

This very attractive Tortie and White Classic Tabby girl celebrated her fourth birthday at the beginning of this month. Being a Tortie I have a fair idea of how she came by her name!! She has a wonderful head balance with a strong muzzle and firm chin. Her full rounded eyes are spaced wide apart with a slightly oblique aperture, and they show a lovely bright green in today's hall light. Her coat was a little on the sparse side, but showed lovely rich tortie colours and good markings in all areas. Rectangular shaped body with a tail that balanced for length.

AOC MAINE COON IMPERIAL GRAND PREMIER (or cat with one UKGR) UKGP BOB STANTON'S IGRPR ISADORYOU POLOBEAR (MCO es 03 11) Most handsome Cream Silver Shaded and White boy who celebrated his fourth birthday at the beginning of this month. I can see from my records that I have had the pleasure of handling him many times in the past. Polobear is a massive boy in all departments and his adoring Dad had presented him, as always, to the highest of show standards.

I found her head balance just where it should be at this stage in her development, with a lovely square muzzle and firm chin. Her ears are tall, large and spaced well apart, with good tufting and furnishings at the tips. Heavy rectangular body covered with a good size, well in development, coat that showed a pleasing shade of red with good classic markings. Her tail, for perfection, could be a fraction longer for balance.

He has a well rounded head balance with the very best of short broad persian type. Small neat ears with excellent space between. Herbie's eyes are bold and clear, showing a pleasing shade of blue. His medium to full well presented coat is a very correct apricot-white and covered a cobby low body, supported on the best of thick well bred bone.

BLUE COLOURPOINT PERSIAN PREMIER 1st ( GR & BOB w/h) FABER'S PR SASHARMEY INNISFREE (PER a 33) MN 26.06.14. Very handsome Blue boy with a well rounded head balance and short broad persian type. His width across the top matches his fat full cheeks perfectly. He is a cobby boy, set on the very best of thick well bred bone, all covered with a medium to full, well presented coat that was not showing the correct glacial-white tone, that is required for this breed.

CNH BEATTIE'S CH & PR CUSHKA BORN-TO-WILD (PER a 33) MN 14.06.12.

AOC MAIN COON PREMIER GP STANTON'S GRCH & PR ISADORYOU HOLD URFIRE (MCO ds 11) MN 05.07.15.

He has a head that is well in balance in all respects, with lovely large tall ears that have a plentiful amount of furnishings and good tufting to the tips. His eyes are full, round and obliquely set. large heavy rectangular body covered with a good size, well presented coat with a full, wide at base tail, that was well in balance for length.

2nd POWELL'S PR RUTTERKIN ROSSI (MCO ds) MN 05.12.14.Handsome Red Smoke boy who at the beginning of December will celebrate his third birthday. I can only say about this boy, is that he has it all there, but on the day he would insist on holding his ears in a somewhat splayed position, which, for me, upset his head balance and this is my reason for his placing today.

TORTIE COLOURPOINT PERSIAN PRE-CHAMPION. 1 (CC w/h) NEALE'S CUSHKA CHANTILLYLACE (PER g 33) F 29.11.16.Just coming up to eighteen months of age, I found this Blue-Cream very much to my liking with the very best of short broad persian type. She has bold clear eyes of medium blue and ears in just the right position for this stage in her development. Her cobby low body was covered with a medium to full well presented coat that was showing a very correct glacial to creamy-white tone. Unfortunately, I was unable to award to her due to her having a misplaced canine.
