MRS JANET STARR

Many thanks to Stephanie & Celia for inviting me to judge at this friendly Breed Show – always a pleasure to judge for this club. I spent a very enjoyable day in the excellent company of Pat Cooke, who was my super steward – I can always relax & enjoy my day with Pat on hand, as she thinks of everything!
Thanks again,Pat – I look forward to a repeat in July!

LAYABOUT CLASS

1 MASON’S GENETTA LONGSTOCKING 14 09 06

Dear Caramel Tabby-point female neuter in top condition, beautifully presented & pleased to meet us – a gentle girl just a little apprehensive at first

ACGRAND CHAMPION

1 IGC Withheld MORT-WILLIAMS IMP GR CH CHAIROSS DEMETRIUS 22 04 93

Large Chocolate-point male of very good type. Wedge head with dip in profile & a firm chin. Eyes of bright blue, correctly shaped & set, though one was wandering slightly. Well placed open ears just large enough to balance his head .Long heavy body, legs & tail. Pale coat, short & just a little coarse on his back, points of warm chocolate almost matching. A very purry boy, just needing a little more for this highest honour today

2 MORGAN’S CH ASTRALBLAESE PEGASUS 08 09 06

Lilac-point male of good type. Wedge head with small muzzle pinch, straight profile & firm chin. Well placed ears needing to be larger to balance his head. Eyes of bright blue, a little full in shape. Long firm body & legs, tail needing an extra inch. Short coat of typical texture ,magnolia in tone & with minimal shading, points of somewhat dark lilac tone. Another fussy boy!

LILAC=POINT MALE KITTEN 14wks – 6 months

1 BOB Withheld WILLIAMS’ ROYSTERER SNOW PATROL 01 01 09

Solid & well grown little male of very good type. Strong little wedge head with small baby dip as yet & a deep firm chin on which he is growing a beard already! Deep blue eyes oriental in shape & setting, well placed large butterfly ears. Long firm body & legs, tail just long enough & could be finer. Magnolia coat still showing kitten qualities ,points at present of a strange fawn/creamy tinge .I liked his type & thought he was full of promise, but the conundrum of colour meant I could not award BOB today – I will be interested to see how he develops

FEMALE KITTEN 7 – 9 MONTHS

1 JONES’ SARAMESE GOODLUCK CHARM 16 08 08

Long & stringy kitten of very good type. Wedge head with pinch, accentuated by her pale whisker pads, straight profile & firm chin. Small eyes set straight & deep & a little dull in colour. Well set large ears. Long firm body, legs & whip tail to balance. Close fine textured short coat, pale & unshaded, points of pinkish-lilac tone. Sweet kitten, just a little overawed by her surroundings at first

2 HAND’S HARUAN ZANDRA 07 12 08

Solid little female of good type. Shorter wedge head with pinch, straight profile & firm chin. Eyes of good blue, correctly shaped & set. Ears just large enough, open at the base but needing a little more width between them .Tense long body, fine whip tail with tiny terminal pip. Close pale coat of fine texture, points of somewhat dark lilac tone. She was rather unhappy when we met & made her feelings clear!

CARAMEL-POINT MALE NEUTER
