Diego I'm bringing- sexy back     Purred: Fri Apr 14, '06 8:03pm PST  The show is called "The Standard of Perfection: Show Cats. " I am no show cat but we love to watch any shows about cats. There are so many shows on TV about dogs (grumble grumble) that its time for some cat equality in the TV world. Oh, I think it is scheduled to be on PBS at 8:00pm but I would check your local listings. my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become friends [notify]

Jacques Fiend #2.     Purred: Wed Apr 19, '06 7:40am PST  This should be a fun program, and introduce a lot of humans to cat shows: This episode revolves around the owners, animals and judges at the Cat Fanciers' Association International Cat Show, one of the world's foremost feline competitive events. It can be a nerve-racking time for the exhibitors as they watch their prized pets proceed to the next round or face elimination from competition. The program shows the training, pampering, bathing, grooming and fussing that go into preparing a "campaign cat" for the biggest event on the cat calendar. Pride, jubilation, dirty tricks, tears and despair are all part of the game. --Tonkinese Breed Club messageboard [notify]

Jacques Fiend #2.     Purred: Thu Apr 20, '06 6:07pm PST  Any cat else see this? We missed it, of course, but were interested. If no cat has seen a show, we wondered what you thought... [notify]

Twix T.A.-AAFE     Purred: Thu Apr 20, '06 9:04pm PST  I miss it too , can any one please tell me if it was good, [notify]

Diego I'm bringing- sexy back     Purred: Thu Apr 20, '06 9:43pm PST  We had to record it and now mom is going on vacation for a week so we can't watch it until she gets back. I am pretty sure it will repeat since PBS typically does that. Maybe look for the show at the PBS website and look for additional airings. my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become friends [notify]

☆Zoril- la☆ When in- Doubt...PURR!     Purred: Fri Apr 21, '06 3:53pm PST  We saw the second half and it was GREAT! Hopefully it comes on again so we can see it from the start. It was really interesting to see all the different breeds and observe how cats reacted to judges and the audience(one scared kitty hissed and went running off!) We didn't fully understand the judging, some of the cats seemed to get a lot of ribbons. Maybe this was explained in the first half that we missed? One judge brought up an interesting controversy. While a cat show is an athletic event, many of the cat owners treat it more like a beauty pagent. We haven't seen enough to have an opinion. The overall winner. I won't give it away for Diego's family, but WOW, what a cat. Are there any show cats on Catster?
