Arrival Story:
I had one Ragdoll and was addicted, so searched high and low for a seal bicolor. I finally found him over the internet and begged his breeder to let me have him at 8 wks. Even though that is a no-no, she gave in and let me have him. He became very attached to me and has remained so ever since.
Bio:
Beau was marked very well for a Ragdoll, so my friend Pam encouraged me to show him. I did that and he did quite well in the altered cat classes. But as he got a bit older, one of his blue eyes turned in a bit. Since crossed eyes can be cause for disqualification, I transferred him to the Household Pet Class where the cat is judged, not on the breed standard, but on their beauty, grooming and personality. What fun we had in those classes! All different colors and types of cats compete and just about everyone wins at one time or another. Beau was a schmooze, so the judges loved him and he gave me many pretty ribbons. He is now retired from showing and is now a full-time 'Uncle Beau' to various Ragdoll kittens who are born in our cattery.

I decided, since I'll be 8 years old in a month or so, that I should start a diary to chronicle my life. I've had a pretty calm life, here in a cattery full of other Ragdolls, but I have done something not everyone does. I have gone to shows now for many years! Though purebred, I show in the Household Pet class. I guess I'm too small to be in the Alter Class, or maybe it's because a judge once made fun of my eyes and freaked out my Mom. I guess one looks crossed on occasion. At any rate, the Household Pet Class is pretty fun. There are lots of short-haired and long-haired cats there, some are purebred and some are not, but most are very friendly and quite beautiful. I've never minded shows, tho sometimes the hotel/motels are a bit scary. But I just cuddle with Mom and purr and knead and then I feel better. This past weekend I went to a show and brought Mama a few ribbons. A nice lady judge even gave me the 'Best Cat' ribbon! #1 in that group!! I really did schmooze her though. She was so nice and I really liked her. Her husband is also a judge and I schmoozed him too. He gave me #3 place and said I was a 'suck up'! Well!!! I don't see it that way. If I'm happy and they are nice, I show off a little. I think I'm a bit long in the tooth for showing, but maybe Mama will take me to another show. I do kind of like the attention...
