Anyone else showing a minority breed ? I show Russian Blues. Carol M...
I ONLY show minority breeds if not HHP's! I have shown TA's, JBT's and a Nebelung! I even owned a York Chocolate, but she was disabled, so she showed as a HHP...
I show Manx - a very old but still, numerically, minority breed. Russians, too, were among the original show cats and were represented in the first cat shows...
... Interesting. In Japan, Russian Blue is one of the popular purebreds in both CFA and TICA. I was showing Bombay last year. He was the very first Japan-born ...
I am "in between" right now, but my show kitties are Russians too. Linda Flanigan Anam Cara Russian Blues hollybgood@... [Non-text portions of this message...

Do you have Nebelungs mixed up with LaPerms? The first LaPerm was indeed a barn cat in Oregon. Although the original cats of the first (TICA) U.S. Nebelung...

LaPerms were developed at first solely on the curly coated barn cats found on the Koehl's cherry orchard in The Dalles, Oregon in 1982. Linda did experiment...
Ah, mine just died last year at 11 1/2, and there are very few. Cathy/Jagcat ... Saw a York Chocolate at a breed seminar in Philadelphia in the early 90's....
No I do not. Also, York Chocolates were "barn" cats as were Sphynx! Many breeds were. I think the Munchkins were swamp cats too. None of this is an insult...
Hi All, this is directed to those who show minority breeds. Please don't take offense if you shows a more popular breed. My questions are as follows. Do you...
... the oldest breeds have to come from somewhere. Russian Blues did not drop from the sky complete with a certified pedigree. Nope, they are result of people...
Well, being a bit of a "purest" at heart, I do not feel cats found wandering around city streets as barn cats. The first LaPerm was ACTUALLY a barn cat, a...
Since the judges do not have the opportunity to see as many of the breed and what we are striving for in breed type, I feel they do not always give the entire...
... That was exactly my main concern when I was showing a minority breed. When we're showing Bombay boy in both CFA and TICA in Japan. I didn't expect none of...
-I tend to agree. For Russians, cats are judged by the coat (lighter is better) and everything else seems to be ignored. True, the TICA RB standard has the...
I find it fascinating when showing a minority breed in CFA that a cat will be "invisible" to a judge until it grands. Then, suddenly, the cat is the best thing...
... standard in your breed, it can make acknowledgement of a different line more ... Yep. Not only am I showing Russians but I show a "look" that is not the...

I'm not sure if anyone can answer my question, but any info or opinions would be great. I have an almost 2 yr old blue point siamese mix cat I would love to ...
Dear Betsy, I have a blue bi-color Ragdoll that I show in CFA, TICA and AACE. She was purchased as a show kitten. When I picked her up from the breeder, she...
In HHP classes, you shouldn't need to worry. I don't think anyone would take a scar like this as a sign of being unhealthy. CFA does not register HHPs so, as...
