KERNOW CC SHOW
HELD IN EXETER ON THE 1st APRIL 2017
Fantastic day for Kimi who so enjoyed his day out at the Kernow show. This is the closest show to my home at only 40 minutes
away, which was a bit of a shock for little Kimi as he was all set for his usual three or four hour kip in his travel pen.
He won is fourth Imperial Grand Premier Certificate, plus Best of Breed - and to top the day off
I won a super soft self warming cat bed and a bottle of Presecco in the raffle!!

HELD IN RYTON-ON-DUNSMORE ON THE 22nd JANUARY 2017
Kimi and I attended the Fife Winners Show yesterday, and my lovely laid back boy gained his first POH (Prize of Honour Certificate),
and was Nominated for the BIS panel by French judge Philippe De Guerny Ventura.
He also went on to gain his fourteenth Fife BIS - so I'm very very proud of him!
His final judging for Best in Category lll was so nail-biting as the coveted title of NW (National Winner), was up for grabs -
a once a year very special title. Up for Best in Category lll and the NW title were Bengal Kimi, a Korat girl
owned by my friend Liz Beckett and Nicholas Chapman's Burmese kitten.
The kitten won - never mind Kimi, there's always next year!!
Here he is being presented to the judges by Nicky Taylor.

I kept phoning the hospital and two weeks on and he was still in there. I think he also suffered from a heart condition..

CFA UK SHOW
HELD IN LONDON ON THE 7th MAY 2016
Kimi became the very first Bengal cat
ever to be shown at a CFA show held in the UK!
This was because up until the 1st May 2016 Bengals weren't recognised by teh CFA registry and could not enter a CFA show hall.
This has all changed though, and until they achieve Championship status (which hopefully won't be long), they can only be show in the Miscellaneous section. In other words, assessed by judges in accordance with the CFA Bengal standard.
He was judged by six International Judges, some from as far as the USA and Russia and he behaved beautifully and had glowing reports from all six Judges. Here are photos from his day at his (and my), first CFA show.

On the way back I joined other UK exhibitors for a lovely meal in the restaurant as we celebrated the NSW titles of those who won their new title.

THE GCCF SUPREME CAT SHOW
HELD AT THE NEC IN BIRMINGHAM ON THE 24th NOVEMBER 2015
I'm so proud of my lovely Kimi after his fantastic result at the Supreme Cat Show yesterday. It was the most nail biting judging I've ever witnessed. My knees were knocking so much I thought I was going to crumble into a heap on the floor and my tummy was
so full of butterflies that I almost felt sick. .... and that is why I usually make it a point never to watch my cats being judged!!
I was thrilled when little Kimi was awarded not only his first Imperial Grand Premier Certificate, but also Best of Breed.
It took a few seconds to sink in but I came back to earth after a congratulatory slap on the back from someone behind me.
Very many thanks to his judge Diana Harper who's comment that he was
'The cat that had that special something extra' which made me bubble with pride.
Thank you also to Steve Parkin for his consideration during the Best of Variety judging
during which Kimi made it through to the final five.
Here are some photos of his very special day!
Of course, not forgetting his breeders, Barrie and Alger-Street Rosie who bred my lovely Kimi.
Thank you both so much for believing in my passion for showing.

THE BENGAL CC SHOW

How wonderful that our very own Bengal Cat Club show should be held at the very same venue that it's very first shows were held.
This was the clubs 10th Anniversary Show and what a special day it was for everyone.
I took Kimi to this show as Zsami already had already been awarded a breed show Olympian, so there
wasn't much point in aiming for another one as it wouldn't count towards an Olympian title.
Kimi had a really super day and gained his very first

Kimi was not playing ball for his celebratory photo, preferring instead to play with his pet stick!

This was a Tica taster for Kimi, and what a great show it was. It was the first show in the west country
for some years and so of course, I had to go along to support it, especially as it was a new Tica cat club.
Kimi was fantastic and took the 12 rings over the weekend in his relaxed stride. I was so proud of him especially
as he made more than enough points and the required Final for him to gain his first Tica title.

Travel, hotel and at the show despite the fact that there were so many visitors over the weekend. He handled it all with such maturity and I was so proud of him. He must have had his photo taken over a hundred times!
This is such a fabulous venue and I was delighted that little Kimi followed in his cousin Zsami's footsteps and was Best in Show Category lll neuter on both days. I forgot my good camera so these are the only photos I have of him at the weekend.

my little Kimi was announced First in his group! Apart from the lovely rosette he also won £50!

he showed himself beautifully with confidence and came second in the class which I was delighted with!
I had also entered him in the Special Kitten Class in which there were 61 entrants and 4 judges.
What a wonderful surprise when, as all the winners stood on the centre stage to hear the final placings,
my little Kimi was announced First in his group! Apart from the lovely rosette he also won £50!
For a bit of fun I look Judy and Suzi and entered them in the soft toy competition and Judy was placed Runner Up.

Kimi's second show was a great success and he kept his cool in the hot summer weather and really enjoyed his day.
Zsami was absent due to a little scrap with Keeto the night before unfortunately.
Kimi had a super show report from Judge Mrs Harper:
'A really super Brown Spotted Bengal lad of very good type with the most wonderful rosetted spots, and so friendly'.
Its lovely to know that he was such a gentleman in his first GCCF show, as well as showing all the
attributes of being a good example of the Bengal breed.

He did so well and came home with two EX1 Certificates and two Nomination medals. I'm SO proud of him. He was a huge hit with both the Judges and exhibitors alike, and thoroughly enjoyed his accommodation in the Moulton Colledge halls of residence. I have never seen a cat so intent in his own mirror image and he spent a long time head butting himself. I will be glad when he gets bigger and fit into the walking jacket as I'm sure he would enjoy a jaunt around the show hall when he gets bigger.
