THE MAINE COON CAT CLUB
JUDGE – Mrs. B Prowse
27/6/2009
I was called into judge because Mr. Brace was unable to attend, I do hope exhibitors where not too disappointed? As always a well run show on a very hot day so the ice cold drinks where wonderful Dave. Thanks to Linda Dutton for her help and expertise in handling some rather large cats! We handled some lovely cats and kittens, a real credit to their owners.
